What does Zorro, Ghost Rider, Frankenstein and a vampire have in common? They all make excellent Halloween pet costumes. 

Dozens of Filipino children (and quite a few adults) took part in a charity fashion show to mark the upcoming holiday in Quezon city, northeast of Manila, Philippines, this weekend.

Crowd favourites included Klondike the Pomeranian who dressed up as Zorro and Tango the Chihuahua, who came as Little Frankenstein.

The show was organised by the Philippine Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) to raise awareness for the need to adopt or foster stray animals rescued off the streets of Manila.
