See Heidi Klum's over-the-top Halloween costumes over the last decades

Heidi Klum is the queen of Halloween.

The model and TV host has been throwing her annual Halloween bash since 2000 — except for a two-year hiatus in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19. Part of the annual event's success is due to Klum's elaborate and iconic costumes every year.

From appearing unrecognizable as Fiona from "Shrek" and a massive worm, to bringing along five "clones" of herself, Klum is always dressed to impress for Halloween. And with her yearly elaborate costumes come fans anticipating what she will do next.

This year, the model shocked people by dressing as a peacock.

The "America's Got Talent" judge arrived in a blue velvet bodysuit, complete with a peacock face mask. She was accompanied by a group of Cirque Du Soleil dancers, wearing peacock feather print bodysuits and posing as her tail feathers.

They made an elaborate and fabulous entrance, posing in an array of poses and lifting Klum up at one point to show off the full peacock look.

Additionally, Klum's look was also a couple's costume. Her husband, musician Tom Kaulitz, dressed up as a giant peacock egg.

“She always comes up with something..first,” Kaulitz told TODAY.com at the event. “So this year she said, ‘Hey I’m a peacock, so what can you do with a peacock to match?’”

Mummies (2020)

2020 was the first year in two decades that Klum was unable to host a party, but she was still able to go above and beyond from home.

Klum posted a short film that shows her and her family having Halloween at home. However, things go downhill when she wrapped her kids and husband in toilet paper, resulting in them turning into actual horrific mummies. They chase Klum around the spooky house and she tries to get away from them as best she can, from hiding in knights armor to disguising herself in full body paint that gives off Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used To Know” music video vibes.

Zombie mom (2021)

After another year of having to result to filmmaking, Klum decided to continue 2020's story with a sequel shared on Instagram. The production begins with showing Klum and her husband's graves, hinting that they both died from the events of last Halloween. She then rises from the grave and surprises her kids.

However, she has a hard time getting her life back together, as her ear falls off when putting an earring on and her body continues to degrade.

And last, but definitely not least, is her 2022 costume. Klum made a Halloween comeback by not reaching for the stars, but reaching into the dirt. She transformed into a worm that was being hooked by Kaulitz, who was dressed as a fisherman with one eye falling out.

What will she wear next year?

If there’s one thing to learn from Klum’s decades-long history with iconic Halloween costumes, it’s that you’ll never know what she'll do next — but you can count on it being memorable.
