Fright Night returns to Dancing With The Stars<\/a> this Sunday and viewers can expect sequins, screams and scary showstoppers from the remaining nine celebrities.<\/p>\n

Dubbed as the “spookiest night in the ballroom”, this week’s show is set to be the most terrifying yet with the first dreaded dance-off of the season.<\/p>\n

This means that the two lowest combined points from the judges and public will face off against each other.<\/p>\n

Fair City<\/a> star Stephanie Kelly will dance a spooky Salsa with pro dancer Ervinas Merfeldas to Cascada\u2019s \u2018Evacuate the Dancefloor\u2019.<\/p>\n
