Contestants Become a Human Claw Machine in ‘Fear Factor: House of Fear’ Clip [Exclusive]
Contestants play a human claw machine game involving snakes and rats in our exclusive clip from the upcoming eighth episode of “Fear Factor: House of Fear.”
“You will go face-to-face with these snakes and rats, all while dangling upside from that crane,” host Johnny Knoxville explains in the video.
“One by one, you will become the claw. Your goal is to travel between these three snake pits and save as many rats as possible from those snakes, who are very hungry.”
To top it off, Knoxville reveals that the players’ hands will smell like rats to entice the predators.
Find out who emerges victorious when the episode airs tomorrow, March 11, at 9pm ET/PT on Fox, followed by streaming the next day on Hulu.
This version of “Fear Factor” drops 14 strangers into a remote location to live together and face mind-blowing stunts, harrowing challenges, and a twisted game of social strategy where trust is fleeting — and fear is a weapon.
Only one winner conquers all their fears and walks away with the grand prize: $200,000.
Remaining contestants include Spelling to Communicate practitioner Chelsea, aerospace engineer Danielle, soccer player Dida, emergency dispatcher Ethan, marketing professional Jayleen, flight attendant Lance, and eBike business owner Rob.

Smoke Jumper Films and Mango Monster Productions produce in association with Catchlight Studios (Heretic, The Blackening).
