And they are here:-

But what tricks and treats will the Strictly spooktacular entail? Read on, if you dare to find out…

Anastacia and Brendan will be dancing the Jive to ‘Bat Out Of Hell’ by Meat Loaf

Claudia and AJ will be dancing the American Smooth to ‘Black Magic’ by Little Mix

Daisy and Aljaz will be dancing the Paso Doble to Santa Esmeralda version of ‘Please Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood’

Danny and Oti will be dancing the Foxtrot to ‘Take Me To Church’ by Hozier

Ed and Katya will be dancing the Cha Cha to the Hansel Martinez version of 'Love Potion No. 9’

Greg and Natalie will be dancing the Rumba to ‘Bring Me To Life’ by Evanescence

Judge Rinder and Oksana will be dancing the Paso Doble to ‘Born This Way’ by Lady Gaga

Laura and Giovanni will be dancing the Tango to 'Paint It Black' by The Rolling Stones

Louise and Kevin will be dancing the Charleston to the Emeli Sande version of ‘Crazy In Love’

Ore and Joanne will be dancing the Charleston to the Bow Wow Wow version of 'I Want Candy’

Most of those songs aren't related to Halloween at all.

Praying Laura won't be the FOURTH Tango to leave

Would've thought Ed would be dancing to Black Magic, perfect Cha Cha song. Does it work for AS?

Oh dear they don't seem to want to give Greg a ballroom dance; that's his third Latin dance on the trot.

How weirdly coincidental for Kevin and Joanne to have charleston.

And poor Brendan has to come back from a lung infection to one of the fastest dances. Perhaps Gorka may still have to dance

how many songs have been used before?

I'm guessing 4

any advance on that?

I don't think it does, Poor Claudia, it's going to be like "I Really Like You" all over again, a Foxtrot or American Smooth to Cha Cha Cha music.

Horrible song choice. Little Mix = American Smooth??

TPTB really hate Greg, don't they? A third Latin in a row! Hopefully if he survives this week he'll give us three lovely ballrooms to compensate.

I agree, a dreadful song for an American Smooth, but if it was for a Cha Cha Cha, then we're cooking!

What a load of rubbish...a real let down....Strictly just does not seem to be getting it this year.

It makes zero sense 😶

At least 5. Why cant they ban songs that have always been used?

Not sure how many - love potion number 9 has but can't remember who, likewise with Bat out of hell.

Alex Jones and Shimmy Jimmy Jordan danced a Paso to Bring me to life. Although it wasn't technically great I still loved it so remember it well.

For Laura, I was hoping for a VW, really gutted it's a Paso.

Considering she had an ankle injury, I don't think a Tango so soon will do it the world of good...so she might well be saying her goodbyes...

Who cares so long as we get to see more of his lovely arse in action!!!

It is perfect for a Cha Cha, surprised it wasn't used last year and even more surprised when it is used it's for an AS

Some odd choices here!

When the song came on on ITT I though yes! This must be Ed's song, they'll all be thrilled on the forum.

Then they showed Claudia and AJ... I could hear you all collectively sigh lol

When they said on the results show that she had an AS with a witch costume I thought they'd be dancing to Frank Sinatra's Witchcraft.

I think VW or Foxtrot would have been much better, even a barefoot Rumba would be better than a Tango.

They have given the death dance and will give the death slot.

Greg .....

Best of Greg to get Latin out the way on a week when he can hide behind themes and costumes and make-up (although rumba is a very safe dance for male celebrities). Although he's not the only one - this is Daisy's third latin in a row when she's much better at ballroom as well.

Are they running out of ideas? A few of those songs don't sound very Halloween-y.
