They stressed that ‘Dragula’ remains committed to innovation and fearless artistry. For this new season, they plan to feature “raw, hungry artists” to deliver a fresh experience that’s both unpredictable and cinematic, reminiscent of the show’s initial impact.
This season will also welcome a variety of guest judges, including notable figures such as Rose McGowan, Doug Jones, and Harvey Guillén. Previous winners of ‘The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula’ such as Landon Cider and Asia Consent will also make appearances, enhancing viewer interest and excitement by featuring well-known personalities from the drag and horror communities.
The return of ‘The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula’ is poised to captivate both longtime fans and potential new viewers, particularly those who appreciate the intricacies of horror and the creativity of drag performances. As it is one of Shudder's most popular series, the release is likely to generate substantial viewer engagement and discussions within fan circles leading up to and following the debut.
With the launch of Season 7 on October 27, ‘The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula’ continues to redefine standards in the unscripted genre of both drag and horror. The retrospective theme and the introduction of fresh talent signify an ambitious effort to rekindle the spirit that first drew audiences to the franchise a decade ago.
