Safiya Nygaard, Manny MUA To Headline Third Season Of YouTube Premium’s ‘Escape The Night’

For the past two years, OG vlogger Joey Graceffa has compiled a cast of fellow online luminaries to co-star in his original YouTube murder mystery competition series, Escape The Night.

This year is no different. Today, Graceffa has unveiled the full lineup for season three of the hit show, including: Colleen Ballinger (whose character is ‘the disco dancer’), Matthew Patrick (‘the detective’), JC Caylen (‘the hippie’), Rosanna Pansino (‘the jetsetter’), Roi ‘Guava Juice’ Fabito (‘the daredevil’), Manny ‘MUA’ Gutierrez (‘the record producer’), Nikita Dragun (‘the troublemaker’), Teala Dunn (‘the super spy’), and Safiya Nygaard (‘the investigative reporter’). Graceffa will return in his leading role as ‘the savant’.

On the show, the above archetypes improvise various alliances and conflicts, and compete in challenges in order to solve a murder mystery, as well as escape the scene of a crime (this year the show will be set at a carnival) untouched. “Not only did I watch the first two seasons, I studied them like I was cramming for finals,” Patrick told EW

of his experience filming the show. “This season was a lot different than the previous two with way more twists, so even with all my studying up, I was on my toes from the beginning.”
