The season premiered on September 20, 2023, and will be split into two parts, with the second part premiering on April 3, 2024. The season was met with generally positive reviews, with praise going to the aesthetic, the more psychological horror in comparison to earlier seasons and the performances (particularly that of Dexter-Jones and Kardashian). However, there was some criticism for the pacing and episodes feeling repetitive.
