Halloween Wars, that spinetinglingly delicious Halloween treat pitting five teams against one another in a battle to create the ultimate themed display is returning for a second season beginning Sunday, 7 October 2012 on the Food Network. Hosted by the Cupcake Wars’ Justin William, the season two judging panel will include renowned cake decorator Shinmin Li and award-winning special effects, make-up artist and horror actor/director Tom Savini as well as a guest judge that will change each episode. One team will be eliminated each week until only the frighteningly best remain. The team that survives and emerges victorious in Halloween Wars will take home $50,000.
Evil Clowns
The first of Halloween Wars four battles challenges the five teams to create the most terrifying clown imaginable. With each team made up of a cake artist, a candy craftsman and a pumpkin carving expert, guest judge Shawnee Smith (Saw, Anger Management) is sure to be treated to more than a few tricks in the Season Two Premiere on 7 October 2012!

Bon Temps’ newest vampire tests the four remaining teams asking them to capture the epic battle in which a vampire slays his prey. Maybe guest judge Rutina Wesley (True Blood) will get some ideas for eliminating Billith in Season 6 as Halloween Wars eliminates another team on 14 October 2012.
Science Gone Wrong
Halloween Wars brings out the monsters on 21 October 2012 as the three remaining teams capture that terrifying moment when a mad scientist’s creation goes horribly wrong. Good thing they’ll have a werewolf on hand if things get messy! Chaske Spencer (the Twilight Saga) is the guest judge who will help narrow things down to the top two teams.
Zombie Wedding
Every fairy tale, even a twisted one, has to have a happy ending. The Halloween Wars are no different. In the epic finale, the two surviving teams must create a romantic yet horrific scene from a zombie wedding to win the $50,000 prize. Sara Canning (Vampire Diaries) joins the judging panel to crown the champion just in time for Halloween on 28 October 2012.
