Shudder is going in for another season of horror drag, renewing The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula for a fifth season. The horror streaming service announced on Monday that the show, which has been the most watched-program on Shudder since its premiere in October, will be coming back for another season in 2022.

The show, which is created by alternative drag icons The Boulet Brothers, moved to Shudder for its fourth season following the successful premiere of the film The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula: Resurrection, which released in 2020. The show features drag artists from around the world competing in challenges, which ranged from costume creation and makeup artistry to live performance and acting, in order to win the crown of the world’s next drag supermonster and the season’s $100,000 grand prize. The final two episodes have yet to air, with the season four finale premiering on December 21st.

“We are so thrilled to be celebrating the monumental success of season 4 with our new partners at Shudder. It has been a roller coaster ride of a season, and we’re still overwhelmed with how engaged and passionate fans and critics have been all season long,” said The Boulet Brothers. “Season 4 is a real triumph for our team, but it’s only the beginning, and we can’t wait to share what we have planned next. We have such sights to show you!”

“We believed this new season would be something special, and The Boulet Brothers did not disappoint, delivering a wildly entertaining show that solidifies its hit status among a passionate and growing global fanbase,” said Craig Engler, Shudder’s General Manager. “We look forward to sharing these final season four episodes with audiences, as we crown a winner from a diverse roster of talented contestants and are delighted to continue our collaboration with The Boulet Brothers on a fifth season next year.”
