Dancing With the Stars’ Halloween-themed “Horror Movie Night” ends with a double elimination, sending two couples home in the same episode. Multiple outlets frame the night as a special spooky installment, with couples performing routines inspired by horror films.
Forbes and Hollywood Reporter both highlight that the episode features harsh scoring and include details on which couples were eliminated. Forbes specifically mentions guest judge Shirley Ballas and “shocking” low scores, while other coverage emphasizes the overall double-elimination outcome and the Halloween setting.
Deadline and Post focus more on the episode’s thematic content and competition implications. Deadline points to routines inspired by particular horror titles such as “The Omen” and “Sinners,” and notes the context that no one went home the prior week. Post adds that the double elimination leaves eight couples remaining, setting the stage for the next stage of the contest.
