Oct. 26th Was Halloween Night On Dancing With The Stars
The Dancing With The Stars ballroom turned into a haunted house on Tuesday night (October 28) as the show celebrated Halloween. The celebs each got into their spooky characters and out on some of the best performances we have seen on the show.

Several couples saw their highest scores of the season, with Robert Irwin and Alix Earle each earning their first 10s!
Not only did they all perform their own dance, each couple had to perform in the Dance Monsterthon, which mimics a real-life ballroom competition. They started the Monsterthon doing the Hustle, and once it got down to four couples, they transitioned into the Lindy Hop. The judges eliminated the couples one by one until It was narrowed down to Alix Earle and her partner Val and Whitney Leavitt and her partner, Mark.
The judges ultimately chose Whitney and Mark as the winners, giving them five extra points! The rest of the competitors earns 3, 2, or 1 point.
But, there was one celebrity missing from the Monsterthon. Elaine Hendrix had hurt her ribs during rehearsalso badly that she was at the hospital during the time on the live show. Her last filmed rehearsal was used for the judges to score her and she did not receive any extra points for the Monsterthon since she did not participate. This meant her score was going to be heavily determined by viewer vote.
Who Was Eliminated?
At the end of the night, the leaderboard was topped by Whitney Leavitt, Alix Earle, and Robert Irwin, with Elaine Hendrix and Andy Richter at the bottom.
Nine couples remain, but only eight can move on to next week’s Rock N’ Roll Hall Of Fame night.
Hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough announced which couples were safe until they reached the last three. The couples who were safe were: Alix Earle and Val, Jordan Chiles and Ezra, Dylan Efron and Daniella, Robert Irwin and Witney, Danielle Fishel and Pasha, and Andy Richter and Emma.
This meant that the last three remaining couples, though not necessarily the bottom three, were Whitney Leavitt and Mark, Elaine Hendrix and Alan, and Jen Affleck and Jan.
The couple that was eliminated was: Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jen Affleck and Jan Ravnik.
Affleck should be so proud of herself, especially starting the show at just right weeks postpartum. Congrats to Jen and Jan on an incredible season.
