Every year, Heidi Klum proves why she is the queen of Halloween, and this year was no different because she upped her game with her hyper-realistic and quite creative costume.

While every celebrity donned quite boring costumes, dressing up and honouring other celebrities or dressing up as cartoon characters, Klum stuck to the theme of a spooky Halloween and dressed up as the mythical Medusa.

She dressed up the reptilian version of Medusa for her 24th annual Halloween party, with her partner, Tom Kaulitza, who dressed up as a soldier who is frozen in stone.

Medusa is a beautiful woman who was cursed by the goddess Athena with a head of snakes, instead of hair, with the ability to turn people into stone with just one look.

During a conversation with “Vogue”, she revealed that it took months to create this costume with at least a team of 15 people to make the concept come alive.

Klum further shared that this year’s costume was inspired by her need to explore historic monsters, and Medusa stood out for her.

“I wanted to explore the classic monsters of history and reimagine one in a modern way. Medusa stood out to me as truly iconic – mysterious yet ferocious.

“The legend of her turning humans to stone has fascinated audiences for centuries. In museums, countless paintings and sculptures depict her haunting power, a testament to how terrifying and compelling she remains,” Klum shared.

After showing us once again why she remains the queen of Halloween, we had no choice but to look back at some of her iconic and spooky costumes:

E.T. (2024)

Klum stunned everywhere after dressing up as an extraterrestrial figure named E.T., which took over a year to create.

The Worm (2022)

Seeing pictures of the worm creeps me out once again because how realistic and she certainly nailed it!

An alien science experiment (2019)

This costume was a little bit terrifying and of course she served because instead of making it look like a regular alien, she added cuts throughout the body, metal tubes and metal screws on her legs, 10/10!

Princess Fiona (2018)

If I were to imagine Princess Fiona coming to life, it would definitely be exactly how Klum’s costume was like.
