Quiz: How well do you know these ghosts?

Do you know your Stinky from your Stretch?

AH, YES. IT’S Halloween but now with added lockdown. The absolute joys. 

We might have had plans to attend parties or dress up and head out but that’s gone the way of the dodo this year. 

At least we have more time to sit down and watch some scary films which brings us nicely to this quiz.
