It's October, which means it's officially the Halloween season with spooky jack-o'-lanterns, trick-or-treating, Halloween binge-watches, and whatnot. Well, WWE has decided to give a special gift to the fans this year with the return of the classic Halloween Havoc show through its NXT brand.

As announced, NXT Halloween Havoc is scheduled to take place on October 28, 2020, with Shotzi Blackheart as the host. NXT has been on a trend of bringing back these classic shows this year including TakeOver: In Your House earlier this year. The last Halloween Havoc show was held 20 years ago in the year 2000, and it will be interesting to see what NXT has in store for its fans.

The expectations for the show are for it to be presented around the horror theme and to accomplish that, there could be a few shocking appearances. Let's take a look at five WWE Superstars who could show up at NXT Halloween Havoc. Be sure to comment down and let us know who would you love to see.

#5 Doink the Clown shows up at NXT Halloween Havoc

There have been countless scary characters throughout the history of entertainment, but hardly any are spookier than an evil clown. We have seen horror movies like the IT series successfully portray a clown as the main antagonist. But the world of professional wrestling has also had a famous character called Doink the Clown.

First appearing in 1992, the character of Doink the Clown has been portrayed by multiple wrestlers, most famously by Matt Osborne. His most recent appearance was at Money in the Bank earlier this year when he made a blink-and-miss cameo during the cinematic match at WWE's headquarters.

A show like NXT Halloween Havoc could surely have a similar short cameo from Doink the Clown in a backstage segment, possibly interacting with some Superstar in a bizarre segment.

#4 The Boogeyman appears at NXT Halloween Havoc

Speaking of the spookiest WWE Superstars of all time, The Boogeyman's name surely comes to mind. With a bizarre gimmick where he used to eat worms, appear in unexpected places, and scare of Superstars with his maniac laugh, The Boogeyman is the perfect candidate to appear at a show like NXT Halloween Havoc.

The Boogeyman has made occasional appearances for WWE in the past few years with his last in-ring stint coming at the 2015 Royal Rumble match where he entered as a surprise entrant and was eliminated by Bray Wyatt. He then signed a legends contract with WWE later that year. Recently, the speculation of him making a return to WWE has started with The Boogeyman himself teasing the same through multiple social media posts.

Currently aged 56, it's unlikely that The Boogeyman will come back for a proper run, but WWE can always bring him back for one night for a special appearance or even a match. And what better time to do that than at NXT Halloween Havoc.

#3 'The Demon King' Finn Balor shows up at NXT Halloween Havoc

The current NXT Champion Finn Balor, unfortunately, got injured during his match against Kyle O'Reilly at TakeOver: 31 and suffered a broken jaw. He has since successfully undergone surgery but NXT General Manager William Regal has stated that he won't be stripped of his title yet and a decision will be taken after a couple of weeks. All this could set up for a grand return of Finn Balor at NXT Halloween Havoc, which takes place two weeks from now.

But the catch here could be that instead of The Prince of NXT, Finn Balor could appear as The Demon King at Halloween Havoc. One of the few remaining supernatural characters on the current roster, The Demon King hasn't shown up on WWE programming for a long time, but a show like NXT Halloween Havoc could be the perfect place to bring the character back.

Finn Balor famously used The Demon King on NXT on several occasions previously. An interesting direction could be the Black and Gold brand announcing a match for Finn Balor at NXT Halloween Havoc, but instead of his normal self, Balor could appear as The Demon King and destroy his opponent.

#2 Karrion Kross makes his return at NXT Halloween Havoc

Karrion Kross has arguably had the best debut this year on NXT. Accompanied by his real-life partner and on-screen valet Scarlett, the demonic presentation of Karrion Kross's character has been amazing so far. While he is out injured currently, there have been hints of him coming back sooner rather than later. Could it be at NXT Halloween Havoc?

Karrion Kross defeated Keith Lee at TakeOver: XXX to win the NXT Championship. Unfortunately, he suffered a massive injury during the match due to which he was forced to relinquish his title immediately. As disheartening as that was, he will surely return and pick up from where he left.

NXT Halloween Havoc could be a good platform for him to return. Even if he is not completely ready, NXT might use the show to tease his return. The general consensus among the WWE Universe is that Kross would straightaway be included in the main event scene on the show. If that happens, Finn Balor's NXT title reign might be in jeopardy.

#1 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt makes a shocking appearance at NXT Halloween Havoc

'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt has undoubtedly been the scariest WWE Superstars in a long time. What makes the character even more interesting is the multiple personalities of Bray Wyatt, all of whom are equally disturbing yet engaging. How can someone the actual new 'face of fear' in WWE not appear at a show like NXT Halloween Havoc?

There are quite a few ways in which The Fiend could make his presence felt at NXT Halloween Havoc. During the initial month of the debut of the character, The Fiend was attacking random legends and Hall of Famers on RAW. If Triple H makes an appearance at NXT Halloween Havoc, it could set up for a thrilling encounter between him and The Fiend who could make a shocking appearance at attack The Game.

With the recent alliance of Bray Wyatt with Alexa Bliss, maybe The Goddess could accompany him to NXT for a one-off appearance as well. Both Wyatt and Bliss are two former NXT Superstars who weren't too popular on the Black and Gold brand of WWE but are two of the top Superstars on the main roster. It would certainly make for a shocking yet interesting appearance
