The Boulet Brothers have confirmed an exciting Halloween special of Dragula for next month.

The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula: Resurrection will launch on AMC Networks' horror streaming service Shudder on Tuesday, October 20.

The two-hour film is part-horror movie, part-documentary and part-reality competition, and is the first spin-off from their groundbreaking drag series The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula.

The Halloween-themed competition will see competitors from all three seasons of Dragula return to compete against one another.

And instead of hosting the competition in Hollywood, the special will see the brothers travel across America for in-depth conversations with each artist, seeing where they live and work and observing their process as they create their unique looks.

The competitors will be have to conceptualise and design three original Halloween-themed looks and present them in performances to be filmed at spooky locations, including an abandoned Georgia train station and a haunted mansion in the woods of North Carolina.

The winner of the competition will then be "resurrected" and return to compete on the upcoming fourth season of Dragula as a main competitor, and they'll also scoop a $20,000 cash prize.
