Jonathan Ross' Halloween party preparations are underway ahead of his spooky bash


Every year he turns his home into a real life house of horrors last night as a host of celebrities in spooky outfits mixed with his neighbours at his annual Halloween extravaganza.

And preparations were underway for Jonathan Ross’ spooky party, as builders were seen putting the terrifying decorations up at his London home on Thursday.

The TV presenter, 58, was also seen arriving home after a quick outing prior to the event, and he looked cosy as he wrapped up in a cosy ensemble.

Getting the entrance ready ahead of the evening’s proceedings, planners and builders were seen putting up a creepy clown-themed gate to welcome partygoers.

With glowing red eyes and an ominous expression, the gateway was sure to send a chill down guests spines as they made their stylish arrivals in the evening.

Inside the driveway, the workers could be seen building a makeshift tunnel to enter the house, while a ghoulish figure was seen besides the door to scare anyone who walked past later on.

Meanwhile, during his outing Jonathan kept things casual by wrapping up in a black-and-yellow scarf, while he donned a green plaid top over loose black trousers.

He stepped out in a pair of comfy black loafers, and tried to keep a low profile as he wore a pair of striking rectangular shades to shield his eyes. 

Jonathan’s bashes are so packed full of stars that he has previously enlisted the help of the police to protect both the guests and the public.

However, in 2016 it was revealed that the officers on duty were funded by the tax payer as an angry neighbour was appalled by the discovery after he submitted the Freedom of Information request following the high-profile party, and found the cost of the operation to be £531.80, none of which was funded by the broadcaster.

While officers weren’t stationed on the front door of Ross’s Hampstead property, a policing plan was drawn up ‘for the protection of the public’.

Reasons given for the outlay were potential dangers to the public from crowding of the pavement, spilling onto the road and impingement of traffic.

The Metropolitan Police said: ‘Local officers will continue to attend and interact at events of all kinds on their areas as part of their normal patrols as this is an integral way to foster support and trust in the police and to promote engagement and communication as we do for school fetes and the like.’

A police source told the Daily Mirror: ‘Most officers would rather spend time on proper jobs, rather than shepherding rubberneckers gawping at celebs in silly outfits.’
