Heidi Klum's 2026 Halloween Teaser: Her Past Costumes and How to Recreate Them
One close-up, one phrase: "very, very bloody."
Mark
Why does a costume teaser get this much attention?
Mimi
Because Klum has made it an annual event. Her party, Heidiween, is held in New York, and each year's look is anticipated like a reveal.
Mark
What has she actually shown us so far?
Mimi
One Instagram close-up of what appears to be prosthetic organs, plus her own description that it will be very, very bloody.
Luke
And "appears to be" matters. The article doesn't say what the costume is. Organs could point to many things, and nothing in the piece confirms a character.
Mark
The article ranks eight past looks. Is that ranking meaningful?
Mimi
It's a shopping list more than a verdict. It runs from Medusa in 2025 back to the elderly woman in 2013, each with a link to buy something similar.
Luke
Right, so treat the "most iconic" label as the publisher's framing. No data on popularity is given, though the peacock is called viral.
Mark
Anything about the trends section worth noting?
Mimi
It names KPop Demon Hunters, with Rumi, Mira and Zoey, and also Toy Story 5, Spider-Man and The Odyssey.
Luke
Again, those are the article's claims about trends, with no figures behind them. The only firm date is Oct. 31 for the party.

Each autumn a familiar ritual returns, and this year a celebrated figure has tipped her hand just days before the night when masks come out. Heidi Klum, who has long turned Halloween into a stage for her imagination, has offered only a glimpse of what she will become: a close-up of what looks like prosthetic organs and a promise of something very bloody. The full reveal waits for her New York party on Halloween night itself, while a shopping guide uses the moment to remind readers that transformation has always been available to anyone willing to borrow a little theatre from a favorite character.
Days before Halloween, Heidi Klum has released the first hint of her 2026 costume: an Instagram close-up of what appears to be a set of prosthetic organs, along with a warning that this year's look will be 'very, very bloody.' Fans will have to wait for the full reveal at her annual Heidiween party in New York on Saturday, October 31, the night itself. At 53, Klum has built a reputation as something close to the queen of Halloween, known for costumes that go far beyond the ordinary.
This Athens Banner-Herald piece doubles as a shopping guide. It looks back at her transformations, starting with 2025's Medusa, complete with a snake-covered headpiece, and moving through E.T., a viral peacock, and a giant worm. Earlier entries include Princess Fiona, a Thriller werewolf, Jessica Rabbit, and, in 2013, an elderly woman that the article counts among her most surprising looks. The premise is simple: readers don't need a Hollywood budget to channel any of them.
The guide also surveys this season's wider trends, which lean heavily on pop culture and nostalgia. KPop Demon Hunters tops the list, with fans dressing as Rumi, Mira, Zoey, or Derpy Tiger, while Toy Story 5, Spider-Man, and The Odyssey offer other options. For now, though, the teaser offers little more than one image and one word about blood, and the rest waits for Halloween night in New York.
Days before Halloween, Heidi Klum has put out a first hint of her 2026 costume: an Instagram post with a close-up photo of what appears to be a set of prosthetic organs. She also said the look will be "very, very bloody" this year.
The full reveal is planned for her annual "Heidiween" party in New York on Saturday, Oct. 31, which is also Halloween itself this year. Klum is 53, and the supermodel has built a reputation over the years for elaborate, over-the-top costumes, enough that the article calls her the queen of Halloween.
The piece is a shopping guide as much as a news item. It pairs the teaser with a ranked list of her past transformations and links to buy costumes that approximate them, on the premise that readers don't need a Hollywood budget or a team of special effects artists to channel her looks.
The list runs backward from the most recent. In 2025 she was Medusa, a look the guide translates into a dramatic gown, a snake-covered headpiece and bold accessories. In 2024 she appeared as E.T. In 2023 she was a peacock, which the article describes as a viral look. In 2022 she wore a giant worm costume.
Further back, the guide includes her 2018 turn as Princess Fiona, alongside a Shrek, which it suggests for couples. In 2017 she was a Thriller werewolf, a tribute to Michael Jackson's video. In 2015 she dressed as Jessica Rabbit, in a red dress and statement gloves. The earliest entry is 2013, when she transformed into an elderly woman, which the article calls one of her most surprising looks.
The article also notes what is trending for the wider public this year. Halloween 2026 leans on pop culture and nostalgia. The biggest trend it names is "KPop Demon Hunters," with fans dressing as Rumi, Mira and Zoey from HUNTR/X, or as Derpy Tiger. Other popular ideas include characters from "Toy Story 5," "Spider-Man" and "The Odyssey."
What the teaser actually shows is limited: one close-up image and one phrase about blood. Whatever the costume turns out to be, it will be revealed at the New York party on Oct. 31.
