Strictly Come Dancing: It’s Halloween Week – But Who Will Be Joining The Show’s Hall(oween) Of Fame?

Astonishingly, we’re already six weeks in to this year’s Strictly Come Dancing, which means it’s time for the Halloween special. 

Darkness will descend on the Hellstree Studios as the remaining couples tackle a number of blood-curdling routines.

And while we already know that the hair and make-up department will pull it out of the bag again, there’s a number of other highlights to look forward to.

Michelle Visage is transforming into Morticia Addams for a Foxtrot to the Addams Family Theme, while Alex and Neil will be setting their routine to the Ghostbusters Theme. 

Catherine and Johannes will be upping the camp factor even more for Halloween Week as they take on a Cha Cha set to Steps’ Scared Of The Dark, while Kelvin and Oti will be performing a terrifying Tango set to the earworm of the summer, Billie Ellish’s Bad Guy.
