Last year, Klum – who canceled her last two parties due to COVID-19 – posted several spooky videos of herself recreating some of her favorite horror movie tropes including a shredded back.

In 2020, the Emmy-winning host – who relies on Oscar-nominated make-up artist Mike Marino – did two more subdued looks of herself blending into wall and a bedspread.

In 2019, Heidi debuted her most grisly costume – an alien with an exposed brain – for her 20th annual Halloween bash held at Cathédrale New York.

‘I start thinking about it on November 1. I usually have two or three ideas that I’m playing with and then I decide on one thing,’ Klum told DailyMail.com in 2019. 

‘So the next morning, I start thinking, “Maybe next year, I’m going to do that one that I didn’t do this year.” And then, obviously, throughout the year new ideas pop up because maybe I’ve seen a new or old movie, or was inspired by my travels.’

The America’s Got Talent judge continued: ‘I put a lot of pressure on myself to come up with something better and better every year. I don’t want to let the costume lovers down.
