Soon after Jared Fields was voted out of Big Brother 25, just minutes after his fellow HG Cameron Hardin had faced the same fate, both were brought together on stage to learn about the newest Big Brother twist, Big Brother Zombies as part Scary Week here in Week 8 of BB25.
So what does this twist even mean? Well, here’s everything you need to know about the Zombie twist on Big Brother, including who it affects, how long it lasts, and what it involves.
What is the “BB Zombie” twist on Big Brother 25?
The “BB Zombie” twist was introduced during the Double Eviction episode on Thursday, September 21. At the end of the hour, it was explained that the two evicted houseguests would re-enter the house for the next week. At the end of seven days, one would get the chance to “resurrect their game,” while the other would be eliminated for good. Julie Chen Moonves delivered the news to Cameron and Jared explainig:
Tonight kicks off Scary Week and nothing could be more horrifying to your former housemates than the two of you returning to the house as “Big Brother Zombies.” For the next week you will be living in the house and one of you will be resurrecting your game. And you’ll find out more about that later tonight when you do return to the house.
Who is involved in the “BB Zombie” twist on Big Brother 25?
Our “zombies” for the week are Cameron Hardin and Jared Fields. Both men were sent out during the double eviction, Cameron on Jared’s HoH, and Jared soon after by the rest of the house sans his mom Cirie Fields. So, by next Thursday, one of them will have returned to the game.
How will the “BB Zombie” twist work on Big Brother 25?
At the time of this writting, the actual format of the “BB Zombie” twist has not been formalized to the fans. However, from picking up what Cameron, Jared, and the houseguests have been told, it seems like it will involve a competition played by one of the “zombies” next Thursday. If that person wins, they re-enter the game. If they lose, the other person re-enters. Additionally, there seem to be some other competitions peppered throughout the week to determine who will be the one playing in that final challenge.
How does the “BB Zombie” twist affect the upcoming episodes of Big Brother 25?
Greatly! This upcoming week will not have any of the events of a normal week of Big Brother. There will be no Head of Household, nominees, veto winner, or even eviction. Instead, the Sunday episode will feature Cameron and Jared’s return to the house, and everyone’s reactions. The typical Wednesday episode has been eliminated due to the return of Survivor and The Amazing Race. And the Thursday episode will feature at least some of these competitions Cameron and Jared will be taking part in, as well as the final one to determine who is re-entering the game.
Who will re-enter the game on Big Brother 25?
