There’s something slightly creepy about driving through a small village that has been taken over by scarecrows.

As I pulled into the car park, I had already encountered numerous Daleks, David Tenant and a Xenomorph.

But this is normal for Wray, a quaint little village near Lancaster, who are currently celebrating their annual Scarecrow Festival.

Wray Scarecrow Festival returned on April 27, with the community paying homage to sci-fi characters with more than 50 installations.
