Overview
- The companies officially announced the untitled Fear Factor scripted spinoff on Tuesday as a vertical microseries made up of thirty three‑minute episodes designed for mobile viewing.
- The story is billed as a horror set during prep week on a remote TV horror set where a haunted fortune‑telling machine forces personalized death trials for the crew.
- Thom Woodley and Andrew Beck are credited as writers, Gabriel Caste as director, and Ian Nsenga and Yuliia Vyshnevska as producers on the physical production.
- The series will stream exclusively on Holywater Tech’s My Drama app, with Fox Entertainment Global handling international distribution and Fox holding an equity stake in Holywater.
- Fox frames the project as the first unscripted‑to‑scripted franchise extension and says the move follows the strong multiplatform debut of Fear Factor: House of Fear and its Season 2 renewal, signaling a test case for repurposing legacy reality IP into short‑form scripted formats.
