Customers are invited to call down to the store with friends and young family members to take part in the House of Horrors fun at HMV. Balloons and treats will be given out to the brave souls who dare to defy the demons haunting Grafton St.
HMV staff will be dressed in ghoulish outfits from 10am onwards and will be giving some special treats to customers who scare them the most.
HMV Grafton St Manager Gary Roche said, “We’re really looking forward to embracing the fun activities planned and to raise money for the incredible work of CLIC Sargent’s Care Team at Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital, Crumlin. We invite customers to dress up in their Halloween costumes, to take part in the fun activities planned, and to donate what they can.”
According to Querida Williams, Head of Corporate Fundraising at CLIC Sargent; “CLIC Sargent helps children and young people with cancer and their families with the trauma of diagnosis, the often long journey through treatment… and continues to support them afterwards. We are delighted that the staff of HMV Grafton St will be taking part in this Halloween fundraising to support our services in Dublin. We would like to thank HMV and its customers for their support.”
