ABOUT THE SERIES

"The Traitors" is a brand-new hit social experiment from the Netherlands. The series is a nail-biting psychological adventure in which treachery and deceit are the name of the game.

"The Faithful" must figure out who is a Traitor and vote them out so they can take the prize money for themselves. If a Traitor makes it to the end, they are in with a chance of taking home the cash prize.
