It’s the most spooktacular time of year, but not all celebrity costumes are created equal. From bloody messes to, well, hot messes — here are the best and the worst Halloween costumes in Hollywood this year.
Best — Beyoncé, Blue Ivy and Tina Knowles
If Beyoncé, Blue Ivy and momager Tina Knowles as Salt-N-Pepa doesn’t give you life, I don’t know what will.
Best — Candace Cameron Bure
Tinker Bell might be a classic costume, but Candace Cameron Bure is a breath of fresh air as the fairy.
Best — Bette Midler
Be still, my heart! Bette Midler dressed as her Hocus Pocus character, Winifred Sanders? Please and thank you.
Best — Al Roker
Did I do that? Well, if you’re Al Roker and you’re talking about giving us major Family Matters nostalgia, then yes.
Best — Carson Daly
Seriously, my ’90s kid heart has died and gone to heaven. Carson Daly nailed it as himself circa the TRL era.
Best — Demi Lovato & Nick Jonas
Alone, Demi Lovato as Dorothy and Nick Jonas as Scarecrow would be bland. As a duo, they’re adorbs.
Best — Ellen DeGeneres & Heidi Klum
Leave it to costume-master Heidi Klum to wow us all as the Maddie Ziegler to Ellen DeGeneres’ Sia.
Best — Frankie Grande
TBH, we’re not sure what Frankie Grande is… but whatever it is, it looks hella-cool on him.
Best — Kourtney Kardashian
Kourtney Kardashian looked simultaneously stunning and grotesque as “unholy matrimony.”
Best — Khloé Kardashian
Those Kardashians sure know how to Halloween right. Khloé’s Storm ensemble from X-Men was next level.
Best — Kylie Jenner
The youngest Kardashian dressed as Christina Aguilera circa “Dirty,” and she did the damn thing.
Best — Halle Berry
No bones about it, Halle Berry (and presumably her daughter too) rocked her macabre skeleton costume.
Best — Cindy Crawford, Rande Gerber & kids
The family that slays together stays together! Cindy Crawford, Rande Gerber and their kids killed it as the Sex Pistols.
Best — JoJo Fletcher & Becca Tilley
Bachelor buds for life JoJo Fletcher and Becca Tilley channeled their inner grannies with great success.
Best — Jenna Dewan Tatum
The only thing that could have made Jenna Dewan Tatum’s unicorn costume sweeter is if Channing played along.
Best — Zedd
One good EDM deserves another! Zedd brilliantly paid homage to fellow EDM artist Daft Punk.
Best — Courtney Mazza & Mario Lopez
Could Courtney Mazza and Mario Lopez be any cuter as Saturday Night Fever‘s Stephanie Mangano and Tony Manero?
Best — Martha Stewart
Let us all bow down to the great Martha Stewart, whose zombie nurse costume puts us all to shame.
Best — Harry Hamlin & Lisa Rinna
Harry Hamlin and Lisa Rinna got each other, babe. The husband and wife duo went all out as Sonny & Cher!
Best — Ryan Lochte
Ryan Lochte hasn’t had the best year, but he gave this Mad Hatter getup 100 percent. So kudos for that, kid.
Best — Nina Dobrev
As the horse that kept Leonardo DiCaprio’s character alive in The Revenant, Nina Dobrev won Halloween.
Best — Scott Eastwood
Scott Eastwood paid tribute to his iconic pop Clint Eastwood as “The Man With No Name.” The likeness is striking!
Best — Beyoncé, Jay Z & Blue Ivy
These are the kinds of Barbies we want our kids to play with.
Best — Heidi Klum
Every man’s (and probably teenage boy’s) dream — an entire army of Heidi Klum clones.
Best — Jessica Alba
Jessica Alba wins for creativity, but it’s a tough call saying she had the best costume — she just made everyone else dress up.
Best — Taylor Swift’s squad
Who needs to buy a Halloween costume when you’re Taylor Swift and can just borrow a real superhero costume from your BFFs?
Best — Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel & baby Silas
Naturally, the Timberlake/Biel brood would dress up as trolls, seeing as how JT’s promoting his new film and all… #ad.
Best — Orlando Bloom & Katy Perry
They are completely unrecognizable! It’s amazing what makeup can do.
Best — Shonda Rhimes
When you’ve got lemonades, dress up like the Queen herself — Beyoncé.
Gwen Stefani & son
Vampires are scary, but child vampires are the worst.
Best — Kourtney Kardashian’s family
We’ve got a soft spot for the Power Rangers, so this gets an A+ from us.
Best — Lily Allen
Lily Allen’s sugar skull ensemble is simple, yet haunting and beautiful at the same time. Kudos, Lil.
Best — Hannah Storm
“You got some ‘splanin’ to do!” ESPN correspondent Hannah Storm does her best Lucille Ball impression.
Best — Ariana Grande
Ariana Grande and a friend reenact 2012’s Moonlight Kindgom for what might be our favorite costume.
Best — Gisele Bündchen & son
Luigi was always taller than Mario, so this is a very acurate representation. #NailedIt
Best — Jay Pharoah
Forget about the costume — Jay Pharoah’s got hops!
Best — Mariska Hargitay & Debra Messing
Once upon a time, Medusa and a Pink Lady join forces for Halloween…
Best — The Chainsmokers
Their sheer dedication to recreating KISS is just so, so good.
Best — Nick & Vanessa Lachey’s family
A familly who dresses up together stays together! We just hope the Lacheys aren’t still having to listen to “Let It Go” on repeat.
Best — Michael Strahan
I don’t typically run around the streets chasing Pokémon, but I would run around the streets chasing Michael Strahan.
Best — Maria Sharapova
Maria Sharapova is a perfect Pippi Longstocking.
Best — Jessie James & Eric Decker’s family
We could see this family performing in the next Peter Pan live show.
Worst — Nikki Bella & John Cena
To be fair, this wrestling couple’s costumes are the worst in the best kind of way.
Worst — Emma Roberts
Surely Emma Roberts could have come up with something a little more exciting, right? She’s cute and all, but….
Worst — David Spade
In his own words, David Spade’s local club promoter costume “totally flopped.”
Worst — Ashley Tisdale
Ashley Tisdale’s sugar skull makeup looks like mine did last year… and that’s not a good thing.
Worst — Colton Haynes
Normally Colton Haynes knocks Halloween out of the park, but his X-rated Miss Piggy was a strikeout.
Worst — Charlotte McKinney
Model Charlotte McKinney is supposed to be a Hell’s Angels biker chick, but her getup kinda just looks like lingerie.
Worst — Amy Schumer
Don’t get me wrong — big fan of both Amy Schumer and Stranger Things. But this was way overplayed this year.
Worst — Robin Thicke
April Love Geary looks the part of Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman, but Robin Thicke looks no different than normal.
Worst — Zach Braff
As a die-hard Zach Braff devotee, this is hard to say… but this Top Gun ensemble is uninspired, bruh.
Worst — Eva Marcille
Former America’s Next Top Model contestant Eva Marcille was totally tone-deaf as a Native American chief.
Worst — Julianne Hough
I mean, like, what is Julianne Hough even supposed to be? Am I missing something here?
Worst — Tara Reid
Judging by this sexy Santa suit, Tara Reid should expect a few lumps of coal under the Christmas tree this year.
Worst — Marc Jacobs
Marc Jacobs’ exaggerated ensemble seems like a dig at female bodybuilders. Strong is beautiful, Marc.
Worst — Mariah Carey
It’s not that Mariah Carey doesn’t look gorgeous, but haven’t we seen this sexy devil look from her before? It’s tired.
Worst — Paris Hilon
Paris can probably afford something more spectacular than a generic Alice in Wonderland costume.
Worst — James Corden
We all adore James Corden, which is why his half-assed NASA astronaut costume is so disappointing.
Worst — Ellie Goulding
Ellie Goulding was going for sailor captain here, and I think we all know she can do better.
Worst — Allesandra Ambrosio & Jamie Mazur
You can keep a good rabbit down. Allesandra’s fiancé sullied her Jessica Rabbit outfit with sad little bunny ears.
Worst — Hilary Duff
Hilary Duff and her BF were blasted for cultural appropriation over their Native American and sexy pilgrim ensembles.
Worst — Alicia Quarles
Someone should do Alicia Quarles a favor and remind her that geisha costumes are cultural appropriation, too.
Worst — Madonna
With the crazy clowns terrozing the country right now, this costume is in poor taste (and terrifying).
Worst — Charlie Puth
Charlie Puth, what in the fresh hell are you Scooby Doo-ing?
Worst — Jerry O’Connell & Kelly Ripa
Jerry O’Connell and Kelly Ripa get some points for going all out, but they could have been far more original.
Worst — Ansel Elgort & Violetta Komyshan
If you’re going to go as this Game of Thrones super-couple, you better bring your A game.
