Donald Trump and Leeds United boss Massimo Cellino top pumpkin poll

A GRUESOME '˜Trumpkin' and carved Cellino offered some Halloween fright for Leeds shoppers this weekend.

The US presidential candidate Donald Trump and Leeds United owner Massimo Cellino were the stars of the pop-up pumpkin patch at the Trinity Leeds shopping centre after they came top in a public poll to find the most frightful figures.

Dan Wharton, marketing manager at Trinity Leeds, said: “We wanted to feature some scary pumpkin faces and Donald Trump and Massimo Cellino came top in our poll. We hope we didn’t frighten visitors too much”

Trinity also shipped in a consignment of 10,000 cooked insects for a terrifying tasting menu.
