The ending of RTÉ News on Halloween certainly got viewers talking

Some enjoyed the ending of Wednesday evening's RTÉ News report more than others.

Closing out the Six One news on Halloween, the production team at RTÉ decided to get a bit creative with their graphics. After signing off their report, presenters Eileen Whelan and Ray Kennedy suddenly disappeared when a spooky backdrop appeared behind them. The next image on viewers' screens was the sight of several bats flying towards the camera in what was a light-hearted way to wish everyone a happy Halloween. Most saw the funny side of it and commended the state broadcaster for their creativity while there were some critics of the report. https://twitter.com/rtenews/status/1189984521288134657 Younger viewers got a great kick out of it. https://twitter.com/justjack652/status/1189989640603869185 Some suggested that the news was no place for such fun. https://twitter.com/MrXathon/status/1190073376552996864 But the general consensus was that it was the perfect way to put trick-or-treaters in the Halloween mood. https://twitter.com/carhennessy/status/1190186767112114176
