You don't need to tiptoe through haunted houses in order to get into the mood for Halloween.

There is a free Halloween light show in Cambridge and it's a colourful projection of ghosts and ghouls.

This outdoor fall show is displayed on the face of the Old Post Office from Thursday to Sunday until November.

The spooky atmosphere is completed by tuning in to the radio station 92.5 FM where you'll listen to music that has been choreographed with the light show.

You can drive up or enjoy an evening stroll and watch the eerie displays dance across the building. There are a number of Halloween-themed scenes to watch from dancing skeletons and falling pumpkins to massive spider webs and cartoon witches.

The event is about 15 minutes long and it plays at 8 p.m., 8:30 p.m., 9 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. every night. The City of Cambridge runs seasonal light shows on the facade of the Old Post Office and they all run four times each evening.

The fall show is on through the month of October and the winter Christmas show will begin on November 12.
