Screams, scares and spooky surprises filled La Montagne as Halloween Horrors returned for two nights of frightening fun last weekend.

The annual animal rescue fundraiser featured three mazes, children’s entertainment, games and food stalls.

Event organiser and Sables Animal Rescue founder Seema Duwarkah was thrilled with the turnout.

“The real heart behind the event is something much more meaningful than scares, it is about helping animals, compassion and community,” she said.

Paw Prints Rescue & Rehoming, Feline Feral Fund, Phoenix Animal Care and Treatment (PACT) and IPSS Search and Rescue also participated, raising funds through their own stalls and activities.

“We believe that animal welfare should never be about competition between organisations. There are simply too many animals needing help and never enough resources to go around,” said Duwarkah.

Sables supports animals in underprivileged communities through sterilisation programmes, veterinary treatment, feeding and education.

Duwarkah said events such as Halloween Horrors were vital to sustaining these programmes as demand continued to grow.

She thanked the sponsors, volunteers, actors, technical teams and security personnel who helped bring the event to life, as well as La Montagne for sponsoring the venue and meals.

Duwarkah hopes Halloween Horrors will continue to grow, bringing communities and organisations together to support animals in need.
