Halloween might have been 3 weeks ago but local girl Adele was given a fright on stage last night at a show in Mexico. The singer, from Tottenham, and her fans were briefly terrorised by a bat.

The visit of the uninvited guest caused a few minutes of commotion and sent the star into hysterics. Eventually, the mischief-maker disappeared into the night, allowing the concert to continue without further incident.

The singer’s world tour continues into early next year.
