FOOD Network has quietly canceled three popular Halloween cooking shows as fears swirl beloved Christmas spinoffs will be cut as well.
Food Network airs multiple Halloween-themed shows that have become a staple for the network.

But fans noticed three have been cut, as only Halloween Baking Championship and Halloween Wars are currently airing.
The shows not returning include Outrageous Pumpkins, which has been on for five seasons, Last Bite Hotel, which premiered last year, and Halloween Cookie Challenge, which aired for two seasons.
Fans turned to Reddit to express their dismay over the cancellations, with one saying, “Are we only getting the 2 shows this year? What is happening that so many popular shows aren’t coming back?”
A second said, “Last bite hotel needs to come back – so original and quirky. Just rewatched it. So good.”
A third wrote, “Love Last Bite Hotel! And I get tired of baking shows where they just use construction grade gingerbread and fondant.”
This sparked fears among viewers the Christmas shows could be cut too, including Holiday Wars and Christmas Cookie Competition.
One fan wrote, “No Holiday Wars? Man, that one hurts. I can understand that business changes and sometimes these things happen, but I hope they know if they take too long to bring shows back, it will drastically impact viewership.
“Some of these shows are tradition. I look forward to them every year. Kind of sad in a way.”
Another wrote, “From what I’ve heard, there won’t be as many Christmas shows either. Holiday wars didn’t film this year from what I heard, and I don’t think Christmas Cookie did either.”
The U.S. Sun could confirm neither show has been announced to air for the 2025 season.
