October is here and that means the scariest season of the year is upon us.

One way to get festive this year is by using the power of makeup to transform into anyone you choose. Beetlejuice anyone?!

Colorado-based makeup artist Baylee Madison knew exactly how to put her skills to work in creating a glammed-up version of the classic creepy 1988 film character.

"'Beetlejuice' has always been one of my favorite films, and I wanted to create a body paint based on a different look, rather than the classic striped outfit we see him in and most of the film," she told GMA. "So I chose his guide outfit from the cemetery scene."

After briefly brainstorming, Madison went for it and absolutely wowed social media fans.

"I really just have fun with the process and enjoy the journey of creating," she said.
