It’s Official! The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula: Titans Is Coming

After years of teasing, today it’s finally official: Dragula is expanding the franchise. Dragula: Titans are on the way and coming to Shudder sooner than you might have hoped.

As everyone knows, October is the spookiest month of the year making it the perfect time to crown a new Dragula star. While the cast is yet to be revealed, Titans will bring back drag icons from the show’s previous seasons to compete in the franchise’s grandest championship of drag artistry and shocking physical challenges. This time, the queens will be vying for a $100,000 grand prize, the headlining spot on the upcoming Dragula world tour, and the first-ever (and oh-so coveted) Dragula: Titans crown and title.

While the show will replicate some of the original’s formula, the Boulets promise there are plenty of surprises ahead including “a haunted mansion full of shocking twists and turns that take place in a brand-new ‘underworld’ set that was built just for the season,” according to the press release.

“We wanted the show to feel familiar to fans, but we also wanted the set and format to feel elevated from a regular season to match the incredible talent of the artists we’ve brought together,” said the Boulet Brothers. “There are so many shocking twists and turns this year that the competitors affectionately renamed the show ‘Gagula’ during filming, and we really can’t wait for audiences to see it - this show is truly the most compelling content we’ve created to date.”

“The Boulet Brothers and our previous Dragula series have attracted a wonderfully passionate, engaged, and diverse fanbase and we’re delighted to bring them even more of the content they crave with this next competition series, especially during our biggest, most celebrated month of the year,” said Craig Engler, GM of Shudder.

Judging the returning queens will be some very special guest judges from the show’s past and present. including horror icon Cassandra Peterson (Elvira), Harvey Guillen (What We Do In The Shadows), Justin Simien (director of Disney’s upcoming Haunted Mansion film), David Dastmalchian (Dune, Suicide Squad), pop metal princess Poppy, drag superstars Alaska and Katya, and horror royalty Joe Bob Briggs (The Last Drive-In), Bonnie Aarons (The Nun), and Barbara Crampton (Reanimator, Jakob’s Wife). And, of course, a few surprise guests will make appearances this season as well.

So, when will fans finally get their greedy eyeballs on this brand-new, gag-worthy season? Dragula: Titans premieres Tuesday, October 25 on Shudder and AMC+ with subsequent episodes arriving weekly.

We can’t wait!
