Barrow Taxi Users Choose Between Dracula And Ghostface For Halloween.

30 Sep 2026 Barrow Taxi Users Choose Between Dracula And Ghostface For Halloween.


Taxi users in Barrow have been given a spooky choice ahead of Halloween, with Dracula and Ghostface going head-to-head in a special themed vote.

The two well-known horror characters have become the focus of a fun Halloween initiative designed to get local people involved and add a touch of seasonal entertainment to taxi journeys around the town. Dracula, the legendary vampire character, is one of the most recognisable figures in horror history, while Ghostface is known for appearing in the popular Scream film franchise.

Passengers have been encouraged to have their say and decide which character should take the top spot in the Halloween-themed competition. The initiative comes as communities across Barrow and Furness prepare for Halloween, with businesses and organisations introducing seasonal activities and promotions for local residents.

Halloween has become an increasingly popular occasion for themed events, costumes and entertainment, giving local businesses an opportunity to engage with customers in a different way. The unusual taxi-related vote is also expected to attract attention from horror fans, particularly those with a favourite between the classic vampire and the masked character.

Both Dracula and Ghostface have strong associations with Halloween, although they represent very different styles of horror. Dracula is traditionally linked with gothic vampire stories, while Ghostface is associated with the modern slasher genre.

The campaign provides taxi passengers with a simple opportunity to take part while travelling around the area. With Halloween approaching, residents are also expected to see more themed activities taking place across Barrow, as businesses and community groups prepare for the popular annual celebration.

The result of the vote will determine which of the two horror icons proves more popular with participating taxi users. The Halloween initiative adds a playful element to everyday journeys and gives local passengers another way to get involved in the seasonal celebrations. For those taking part, the choice is simple: Dracula or Ghostface?
