- E!'s new series "House of Villains" puts 10 infamous reality TV baddies together to compete for $200,000.
- The cast includes Omarosa, Corinne from "The Bachelor," and Shake from "Love Is Blind."
E!'s "House of Villains" pits 10 of TV's biggest reality show baddies against one another and, from the outset, the series delivers plenty of fights and plotting, exactly what you'd expect when a cash prize is at stake.
"You're not just living with these people and hanging out, you're also competing with them," Shake, of "Love Is Blind" fame, told Insider of the fun, but also very stressful experience of battling for a $200,000 prize against nine other houseguests.
"It's hard to compete without putting yourself in this mindset that these people are the enemy, or one day somebody is your enemy, and then the next day they're your friend," he added. "In real life you have your opinion of somebody that kind of stays one way. And here it's like, 'Yeah, I don't like this person, but they might be useful to me.'"

"House of Villains" airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET/PT on E! starting October 12.
