Production is now underway on season six of Investigation Discovery’s Very Scary People. Donnie Wahlberg (Blue Bloods) is set to return as host of the true crime documentary series that explores “society’s most evil minds.”
“I cannot wait to dig in and start filming this next season of Very Scary People,,” said Wahlberg. “These stories will leave true crime fans stunned as we unravel the depraved crimes and minds of frightening killers we haven’t considered before.”
Season five premiered in April 2023 and saw an 83% increase in ratings over season four. ID reports that 6 million viewers tuned in to the popular docuseries. Investigation Discovery hasn’t set a premiere date for the upcoming eight-episode season.
Wahlberg will serve as an executive producer along with Desma Simon, Leigh Purinton, and Jonathan Baruch. The series is produced for ID by Donnie and Jennifer McCarthy-Wahlberg’s production company, Work Baby, in partnership with Pilgrim Media Group.
Per ID: “Stories to be featured this season include that of Scott Kimball, a serial killer who, acting in the guise of an FBI informant was able to roam freely and undetected for six years; Clarence Heatley, a diabolical kingpin who ran a multi-million-dollar drug operation marked by dozens of vicious murders; and David Matusiewicz, the mastermind behind a warped family unit in which he conspired to kidnap his own kids and unleashed a deadly, pernicious campaign against his ex-wife.”
“Donnie Wahlberg has firmly established himself as a dynamic voice in the true crime genre, captivating audiences with his riveting storytelling,” stated Jason Sarlanis, President of ID. “Donnie’s relentless pursuit of the most gripping stories has been a natural fit for ID and we are excited to deepen our collaboration on Very Scary People, bringing even more compelling episodes to our viewers.”
