“Hidden amongst the Faithful are the Traitors, whose goal is to eliminate the Faithful and claim the prize for themselves,” according to the show’s official synopsis.

“Under the cover of darkness, the Traitors murder the Faithful one by one in a treacherous spree, while the Faithful try to uncover the Traitors and banish them from the game. If the Faithful contestants banish all the Traitors, they will share the prize fund, but if a Traitor or Traitors makes it to the end, they will steal all the money.”

Last year’s edition of the show was won by the Faithfuls, with Gabby Windey, Dylan Efron, Dolores Catania, and Lord Ivar Mountbatten splitting the remaining prize pot of $204,300 four ways.
