Donnie Wahlberg-Led Crime Series to Return to ID

Investigation Discovery (ID) has greenlit a new season of the true-crime docuseries Very Scary People, hosted and executive produced by Donnie Wahlberg.

Production on the upcoming eight-episode run is set to begin this week. Stories to be featured this season include that of Scott Kimball, a serial killer who acted as an FBI informant; Clarence Heatley, a kingpin who ran a drug operation; and David Matusiewicz, who conspired to kidnap his own kids.

“I cannot wait to dig in and start filming this next season of Very Scary People,” said Wahlberg. “These stories will leave true-crime fans stunned as we unravel the depraved crimes and minds of frightening killers we haven’t considered before.”

“Donnie Wahlberg has firmly established himself as a dynamic voice in the true-crime genre, captivating audiences with his riveting storytelling,” said Jason Sarlanis, president of ID. “Donnie’s relentless pursuit of the most gripping stories has been a natural fit for ID, and we are excited to deepen our collaboration on Very Scary People, bringing even more compelling episodes to our viewers.”
