The doors may have closed on #DigiDoorsOpen this year, but that doesn't mean that the fun has to stop! Each week we will be creating a themed roundup of our digital resources so that you can enjoy a virtual day out from home.Ìý

This week's theme is Halloween! Lament over two star crossed lovers destined to meet a tragic fate, cower in fear from theÌýspectral Red Lady and explore the ghoulishÌýremnants of signage from Glasgow's past. If one door closes and another one opens... please seek help your house is haunted!
