Scariest House in America

Season 3

2026 · 6 episodes · 4h 18m in all · 8.0/10

Retta will continue her search for the country's most spine-tingling properties in an expanded new season of the popular spinoff Scariest House in America, now featuring six one-hour episodes. The actress, comedian and home design enthusiast will brave 20 tours of petrifyingly paranormal or horrifically hideous houses whose owners say are haunted by scary stories and hair-raising sights. From the East to the Ozarks and New England to the Midwest, Retta will discover harrowing places like a centuries-old frightening farmhouse, an eerie former nursing home and a rotting 1800s jailer's house that abound with supernatural sites, ghostly apparitions and unearthly whispers. In each episode, Retta will share hilariously unfiltered views about each home's scary appearance, un-livability and fright factor. HGTV will ultimately deem one house the "scariest" of them all and award the homeowners a $150,000 renovation by popular network designer Alison Victoria in a one-hour season finale.
