Unscripted series Killer Camp starts its new season August 5 on The CW. Based on a U.K. format, the program returns to "Camp Pleasant," as a group of unlucky American and British campers navigate through deadly twists and surprises while competing to expose the "killer" in their camp for a cash prize.

The CW calls the show a “satirical British horror whodunit reality competition series.”

Comedian Bobby Mair hosts. Campers are dispatched by camp handyman Bruce.

Killer Camp executive producers are Karen Smith, Steph Harris and Ben Wilson.

It is produced by Tuesday’s Child Television and distributed by Keshet International.

The British version of the show aired on The CW in summer 2020. The U.S. edition debuted in fall 2021.
