Car-burning, Halloween, Fassaroe, Bray, Co Wicklow 1992

The one time we ventured into Fassaroe, a housing estate near Bray, it was Halloween night. We made out a flickering orangy light in the near distance behind some houses and thought someone might have lit a bonfire. Then we turned a corner and found this car enveloped in flames. Eerie, because there was no one around. Seemed as if it had been delivered, fresh off a conveyor belt of burning cars. Soon, a fire engine arrived, then these kids, darting about, enjoying the spectacle.
