A TRAVELLING freak show is coming to Huddersfield Town Hall for a second time.

Hundreds of people saw the Circus of Horrors on its last visit in 2002.

Now, the macabre acts are set for another show on January 18.

The bizarre cabaret features acts who stretch and contort themselves or swallow and balance sharp objects.

Trapeze artists, sword swallowers and voodoo acrobats are all interwoven with live music. Oddities include a pickled person emerging from a tiny bottle and flying vampires suspended by their hair.

The town hall appearance is part of the 10th anniversary tour of the Circus of Horrors. It started at the Glastonbury Festival in 1995 and has been touring ever since.
