The creatures have been caught playing all sorts of tricks in the build up to Christmas, after being sent by Santa to watch over the house and ensure children stay on the right side of the all-important naughty or nice list.

It is all part of the Elf on the Shelf craze, which is huge in America and has spread across the pond to England.

And Gazette readers have been joining in with the festive tradition, by sending us their hilarious images.

Each evening in the build-up to Christmas, we will be posting a selection of readers’ elf pictures on our Facebook page.

The best images will also feature in the Christmas edition of the Northumberland Gazette.
