Cycle 4

Cycle 4 of Ballyhoo's Next Top Model, labeled "The Haunting of Ballyhoo Manor”, premiered on Discord on April 14, 2024. The cycle featured some big twists on the format for the first time in BNTM history, including the Night of the Living Dead twist, which allowed "eliminated" models to compete alongside the other models until they were offered a chance to return halfway through the cycle, as well as alternate magazines for the final Magazine Cover photoshoot in the finale. (Fangoria and MAD Magazine, rather than the typical Vogue & Covergirl.)
The judging panel remained Ballyhoo, Big Top, Rokuro Yang, and Sarah. The guest judges cemented their status as a mainstay of the format. Notable guest judges were Noah, the winner of Cycle 3, along with her apprentice Terri Joe, Scary Girl, who became the first guest judge to return to the panel after a previous appearance, and the first two non-winner BNTM alumni to guest judge, Hammah Baker & Dr. Quintessa Quacks. Of course, there were many others as well.
The Cycle's unique theme was Horror, with every photoshoot pre-overseas being tied to the horror genre, and horror tropes. This was reflected in the aforementioned twists as well. The Cycle's Overseas Location was Mount Fuji, Japan, admiring efforts and contributions to the horror genre both classic and contemporary from Japanese culture.
Debbie Crocker was crowned as the winner of the cycle in a portfolio battle against Chamelia Badelia.
