Heidi Klum teases grotesque Halloween costume for 2026
Supermodel Heidi Klum has begun teasing her highly anticipated Halloween transformation for 2026. Through Instagram, the 53-year-old shared a close-up image of intricate, slimy, and organic-looking prosthetics, prompting fans to speculate on her final look.
Klum has previously described this year’s costume as “very, very bloody” and noted that it “goes very well with red wine.” Based on these clues and the visual teasers, followers have proposed various theories, including inspirations from the film “The Substance,” the series “The Last of Us,” or even underwater themes like coral reefs.
Known for her elaborate annual “Heidiween” celebrations, Klum often spends months preparing her looks with special effects artists. Past iconic transformations include Medusa, E.T., and a giant worm. Her husband, Tom Kaulitz, frequently participates in coordinated costumes, such as his appearance as a stone soldier to accompany her Medusa persona.
