TheHalloween Baking Championshipstars are cooking up some scary-good costumes this season.

Experienced bakersCarla Hall,Zac YoungandStephanie Boswellswap their aprons for over-the-topHalloween costumesas judges on the annual Food Network series. In each episode, the celebrity chefs are decked out in extravagant costumes and makeup, and PEOPLE has a closer look at the intricate outfits.

Hall pulled out all the stops for the premiere as a “Brainy Steampunk Scientist.” She wore a blood-splattered scientist coat and carried a saw. Most notably, she had a brain sticking out the top of her head full of metal rods.

Young dressed as a bubbling beaker in a neon green get-up adorned with plastic bubbles. Meanwhile, Boswell looked like she had felt the effects of an experiment gone awry in a slime-covered red jumpsuit and safety goggles.

For the second episode of season 10, all of the Food Network stars took inspiration fromBeetlejuice, Beetlejuicefor three, striped and gothic looks. (And the contestants made black and white desserts, of course.)

The costumes merged the aesthetic ofTim Burton’s sequel with pastry-inspired details — Boswell paired her black and white dress with rows of macaroons, Hall had pieces of a mixer lodged into her cheeks and Young had sprinkles coming out of his face.

Young kept up the scares in another episode when he turned a cute animal into a nightmarish outfit. In episode three, he paired a bunny suit with bloody face makeup. The costume perfectly captured the second challenge for the bakers that episode: “transform adorable into deplorable.”

In the fifth episode (airing Oct. 14) Boswell looks to theWizard of Ozfor inspiration on her costume.

Dressed as a “Tornado Witch,” the judge is adorned in dark cloud-like pieces on her head and attached to her body. Cars, tractors, horses and other figurines are mixed up in the clouds for her windswept outfit.
