Who Will Be the Guest Stars in The Hunting Party Season 2?

The start of The Hunting Party Season 2 featured a parade of guest stars portraying some of the series’ most disturbing fictional killers, including Eric McCormack, Elizabeth Gillies, and Niecy Nash-Betts. 

In fact, Episode 3, “Zack Lang,” reunited Bex with team members Jacob Hassani (Patrick Sabongui) and Shane Florence (Josh McKenzie) as the hunt intensified.

Of course, the upcoming episodes will introduce even more exciting guest stars, including former sitcom and drama lead Kelsey Grammer, who will appear in Episode 5 as the charismatic cult leader and serial killer Noah Cyrus. 

Noah mysteriously reappears on a follower’s doorstep two decades after his apparent death, prompting the team to unravel a long-buried network of devotion and danger before he can claim more lives.

Episode 6 will then feature Yellowstone star Jefferson White as Lou Kaplan, a killer who targets social media influencers. 

In Episode 8, Manifest star Josh Dallas reunites with Melissa Roxburgh on the small screen, playing Elliott Carr, also known as “The Connecticut Cobbler,” a murderer who skins his victims to use as materials for shoes.

Evidently, the new season features some of the industry’s biggest names, subverting viewers’ expectations from earlier episodes. 

With Grammer, White, and Dallas on the lineup, expect the new The Hunting Party Season 2 episodes to be even more chilling.
