Horror Night shocks DWTS: Two couples eliminated!

Season 35 of Dancing With the Stars saw its Horror Movie Night on October 27, featuring chilling performances from the remaining ten couples. Guest judge Shirley Ballas joined Derek Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli, adding an extra layer of challenge for the contestants. After a week without eliminations, the scores from the previous week were combined with the current performances, leading to a double elimination.

Harry Shum Jr. and Jenna Johnson delivered a standout contemporary dance inspired by "Saw," earning a perfect score of 40/40, the highest of the season so far. Other notable performances included Jenna Dewan and Val Chmerkovskiy with an Argentine tango (37/40) and Connor Wood and Rylee Arnold with a contemporary routine (37/40).

Despite strong efforts, the night ended with the elimination of two couples. Jackson Olson and Emma Slater, who performed a Joker-inspired contemporary, and Tyler Cameron and Sharna Burgess, who danced a Viennese waltz, were sent home. The remaining couples advancing include Connor Wood/Rylee Arnold, Amber Glenn/Pasha Pashkov, Harry Shum Jr./Jenna Johnson, Jenna Dewan/Val Chmerkovskiy, Ezra Frech/Daniella Karagach, and Maura Higgins/Mark Ballas.
