“Destination Fear” Takes Viewers On A Cross Country Ride In New Season

Wanna go for a ride? Pack up ALL of your courage and get in the RV with paranormal explorers Dakota Laden, Chelsea Laden, Tanner Wiseman, and Alex Schroeder as they hit the haunted highways, byways, and back roads of America once again, spending the night inside the nation’s scariest places. Season 3 of “Destination Fear” features eight one-hour episodes, as the fear-chasing foursome will be driven to the edge of endurance. Exploring under the harshest conditions they’ve ever faced, and using sensory deprivation tactics to augment their paranormal experiment, this trip will test their mental, emotional and physical strength to the extreme.

John Lithgow Returning For “Dexter” Revival

Fans of “Dexter” couldn’t have been more excited to learn that the killer of killers would be returning for a revival. As the premiere grows closer more cast members are being announced. Back in season 4, we were introduced to “The Trinity Killer” played by John Lithgow. While his character was killed that season, news has come that Lithgow is returning for the revival. You may be wondering how this is possible. Killers have often returned in the series in the form of flashbacks and in Dexter’s mind. We are assuming that’s what will happen, but the show has had major twists before so we can’t be certain. Lithgow received an Emmy for his portrayal of “The Trinity Killer” (aka Arthur Mitchell), the character who entered the series as a mentor and became one of Dexter Morgan’s biggest adversaries. Michael C. Hall is back as Dexter and is joined by Julia Jones (“The Mandalorian”), Alano Miller (Sylvie’s Love), Jack Alcott
