Gaten Matarazzo is returning for the second season of Prank Encounters!

The 18-year-old Stranger Things actor serves as the host of the prank series on Netflix, which will premiere the new season on April Fool’s Day, April 1st.

Here’s a synopsis: Each episode of this terrifying and hilarious prank show takes two complete strangers on the surprise ride of a lifetime. It’s business as usual until their paths collide and their one-day assignments turn into supernatural surprises. Where fear meets funny, Prank Encounters is the most elaborate hidden camera prank show ever devised.

Season one premiered in 2019, but before it was even released, the show and Gaten faced quite a bit of criticism.

Shortly after the trailer was released, and the criticism hit the web, Gaten took to Instagram to defend the show.

If you missed it, Gaten recently opened up about filming the upcoming fourth season of Stranger Things.
