Nickelodeon's 'The Substitute' Returns For Season 2, Juanpa Zurita Joins As Host (Exclusive)

The Substitute is coming back and they’re adding a host!

The Nickelodeon celebrity disguise series will return for season two, and social star Juanpa Zurita will serve as the first ever host.

Juanpa will direct the celebrities throughout each episode of the hidden-camera prank series.

The Substitute features celebrities who are transformed by a team of Hollywood special effects artists to go undercover as a substitute, surprising unsuspecting kids in schools, camps and other locations. During the reveal at the end of the day, each organization receives a $25,000 donation.

In the Halloween-themed premiere episode, Zombies 2 star Baby Ariel will go undercover at a haunted house to pull off ghoulishly wacky pranks on kids visiting with the Q Youth Foundation.

Using a full costume and prosthetics to hide her identity, Ariel is transformed into three completely unrecognizable characters, pranking students as an apothecary shop owner who is often suspected of being a witch, a field trip volunteer and full-time ghost hunter who is desperate to finally prove their existence and a haunted house employee whose biggest adversary is a scarecrow.

Other celebs to be featured in season two include Chloe Kim, Chris Paul and more to be announced later.

Tune in to the season two premiere of The Substitute on Halloween night (October 31) at 9pm on Nickelodeon!
