Ezra Sosa was team Anna Delvey (and her ankle monitor) for Halloween this year!

On Thursday, Oct. 31, the professional dancer got into the spooky spirit by dressing as his former Dancing with the Stars season 33 partner, Delvey, 33.

Sosa, 23, shared video of his costume in action on his TikTok account. 

@Anna Delvey how did i do?! #dwts,” he captioned his 10-second clip. 

In the video, Sosa struts his stuff down a dark street while wearing a yellow mini-dress with bedazzled beige layers of fringe that sway as he moves. The footage began with the camera showing his black heels, panning up to his sparkly ankle monitor. 

He also added a pair of black sunglasses for a bit of attitude. 

Delvey, legally named Anna Sorokin, gained fame for conning countless affluent socialites by posing as a wealthy German heiress while living in New York City before she was arrested in October 2017 during a sting operation

The case went on to inspire Netflix’s Inventing Anna — a series that aired in 2022 and chronicled her rise within social circles ahead of her conviction.

However, she dropped even more jaws in mid-September when she appeared on DWTS wearing a bejeweled ankle monitor.

On Sept. 4, Good Morning America revealed the cast of the DWTS season 33, which included Delvey, as well as Tori Spelling, Eric Roberts and Dwight Howard, to name a few.

During the Sept. 17 DWTS premiere, Delvey wore a blue, purple and yellow dress, complete with a matching ankle monitor.

After the pair's debut, the two spoke exclusively to PEOPLE about Delvey’s eye-catching ankle monitor. 

“I just really wanted to show off the ankle monitor,” Sosa said. “Let's be real here. It's the real star of the show.”

“It's part of the costume,” Delvey told PEOPLE, adding, "The costume department created a detachable sleeve for the monitor. They just used double-sided tape to keep it on and we took it off right after.”

The convicted con artist continued, "There are no explicit or written rules for decorating it, as long as it’s not getting damaged."

The following week, Delvey was eliminated during the Sept. 24 episode.

The audio Sosa used for his Halloween TikTok came from the viral moment during Delvey’s elimination when host Julianne Hough asked what Delvey was taking away from her experience on the show.
