The Queen of Halloween Heidi Klum shared new – and purple – details surrounding her upcoming 23rd annual Halloween Party in New York City. In a FaceTime session posted to Barney the Dinosaur’s Instagram, Klum invited the beloved dino to attend as her special guest. Barney graciously accepted and is set to join other VIPs at the iconic event.

Klum’s invite comes amidst Mattel’s grand relaunch of the Barney franchise, with Barney’s World now available on Max, Cartoon Network, and YouTube. Mattel’s other plans for Barney span everything from TV, film, and music, to a full range of kids’ products including toys, books, clothing, and more. Apparel and accessories for adult fans featuring classic Barney are on the market now.

“Halloween is a time to use our imaginations, have fun with costumes, and share smiles with friends,” said Barney the Dinosaur. “I can’t wait to join Heidi this year for what is sure to be a tee-rific celebration!” 

“I love having my friends at the party, and Barney is one of them,” said Heidi Klum. “I know he’s going to bring a whole new level of fun and nostalgia to the night. Halloween is all about creativity and joy – who better to embody that than Barney? I can’t wait to see his costume and share in the magic of the evening with such a super-dee-duper guest!”

For now, audiences are left wondering: what might Heidi and Barney have in store for the big night? And more importantly, what will their costumes be?!
