House of Villains has done it again.

After assembling the best of reality TV's baddies for a hilarious and meta first season, E!'s reality competition series is back with an all new roster once again featuring some of the most iconic villains to have ever graced (or cursed) the small screen.

Entertainment Weekly has the exclusive reveal of the season 2 cast, featuring the first-ever Survivor winner Richard Hatch, The Challenge's three-time champion Wes Bergmann, and the return of Tiffany "New York" Pollard, looking for redemption after her early season 1 exit. There are also familiar faces from franchises such as Big Brother, The Bachelor, RuPaul's Drag Race, The Real Housewives, and more. And we also have the first official photos of the new batch of Villains, as well as video of them "auditioning" to be on the show.

According to the official description for season 2, "E!’s hit competition elimination series House of Villains is back this fall with a new set of mischievous reality all-stars as they scheme, strategize, and shade each other for a chance to win a $200,000 cash prize and the title of 'America’s Ultimate Supervillain.'" Joel McHale returns to host (and roast the cast).
