Heidi Klum shocked fans with her 2026 Halloween costume reveal.
The German supermodel, 53, is known for her incredible transformations, and on Saturday she outdid herself as she arrived at her iconic spooky bash in a gruesome severed hand costume.
The grotesque look featured long red claws and bloody veins bursting from her severed wrist, with Klum’s own face buried inside a macabre, gaping wound.
She was flanked by a five-person entourage clad in yellow hazmat suits.
Klum also shared the look via her Instagram, writing, ‘TALK TO THE HAND ✋ #HeidiHalloween 2026 HERE WE GO.’
And ahead of the event, which she’s been hosting since 2000, the star teased her costume on social media.

She engaged her 12.7 million followers by sharing tidbits of footage that included props covered in fake blood, and clips of her makeup team getting ready to apply special effects.
Over the past few years, Klum has become known for the legendary looks that she wears during her iconic Halloween party in New York City each holiday.
Last year, Klum arrived at her party dressed as Medusa from Clash of the Titans.
In past years, Klum’s other costumes have included transforming into E.T., a peacock, an alien and Princess Fiona from Shrek.
However, her most famous costume of all might have been the one that she wore in 2022.
At the time, Klum arrived as a worm, slithering around on the floor.
She was totally transformed, and you could barely recognize that it was the supermodel underneath the thick layers.
The costume was so realistic that it instantly went viral, lighting up the internet.

To make the costume come to life, she worked with Mike Marino, owner of Prosthetic Renaissance, a special effects company that has made tons of realistic-looking Halloween costumes over the years.
Her husband, Tom Kaulitz, completed the other half of her costume as a fisherman.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter at the time, Klum admitted that she felt ‘claustrophobic’ while wearing the elaborate costume.
‘I was so claustrophobic in that costume,’ Klum shared.
‘It is one thing to add prosthetics to your body — but to be stuck inside the worm body and not really be able to use my arms or feet was not very comfortable,’ she said.
