    Amanda Seyfried goes "huge" at Halloween

    The actress, 38, has children Nina, seven, and four-year-old son Thomas, with her actor husband Thomas Sadoski, and says her whole family love the spooky season as much as she does


    She told People: "Halloween's huge in our house. We go all out.

    "Every year, we have this party, and these local guys who do Christmas lights put in Halloween colours throughout the woods.

    "We have candy, some inflatables, and this year we're doing fog machines.

    "Then we do our trick-or-treating in the nearest town on actual Halloween."

    Amanda - whose roles have included a part in horror 'Jennifer's Body' - added she passed her love of Halloween down to her kids.

    She added: "In fact, my daughter just made a haunted house in our playroom the other day."

    Amanda also revealed what creepy costume her little girl Nina wanted to choose for this year's festivities.

    The actress added: "She wants to be this weird clown. She's wearing a red wig and she wants those teary black eyes."

    Amanda said her son he is more relaxed about his Halloween plans and has asked if he can wear a costume he put on a previous holiday this year.

    She added: "My son's a firefighter again."

    Amanda's next role will be in a movie adaptation of writer Freida McFadden's 2022 novel 'The Housemaid', which tells of a domestic cleaner who is not all that she appears.

    She will co-star alongside 'Euphoria' actress Sydney Sweeney, 27, with 'Bridesmaids' filmmaker Paul Feig, 62, tipped to direct the project.

    Sydney will play Millie, a struggling woman who has recently been paroled from prison and takes up a job as a housemaid to Amanda's character and her wealthy husband.

    A strapline for the film says: "Millie soon learns the family's secrets are far more dangerous than her own."
