- Be not afraid of the dark.

Be afraid of what lies within it.

The Highland stars have aligned once more

to bring 23 players to my castle.

- No one's ready for this.

You don't see this in Beverly Hills.

- People think I'm this sweet, little old lady.

They're not gonna know what's coming.

- Something dangerous is about to go down.

- I want to flip this cat-and-mouse game

on its head.

- People are going to die.

- They will soon be handed their destiny--

Faithful or Traitor.

Some will trust.

Some betray.

And, most importantly, my friends, some...

will murder. [thunder rumbles]

I guarantee you they will stop at nothing to win.

But will they find glory?

Or will their hopes go up in flames?

- Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh.

- The blood is flowing, and so soon will the chaos.

It's time to dine with death.

So, though I may be dealing the cards, it's up to them

how they play the game. [people scream]

- This game is not built for trust.

- You better believe

I am coming for your ass.

- Come on!

- When you corner a wild animal,

you don't know what they're gonna do.

- Oh, my God. - I am deadly.

I am murderous.

- People think I'm trustworthy.

And that's the most dangerous part.

- Let the cards fall as they will

to see whose fate is greater.

Can the Faithful's light outshine

the dark lies of the Traitors?
