Survivor Ghost Island Preview

When: It's Premiering Feb. 28 on CBS, and features 20 new castaways

Location: Fiji  - The Malolo Tribe will be on Mamanuca Island and the Naviti Tribe will be on Yasawa Island.

The Idea: The graveyard for bad ‘Survivor’ decisions

After 17 years and 35 seasons on the air, there have been quite a lot of disastrous game moves,  An entire season centered around the bad decisions of past players … using the actual haunted advantages and idols that did them in. Will these new players learn from the mistakes of others? Or will the past come back to haunt again? Join us this spring for ‘Survivor: Ghost Island.'”

Featured Mistakes:
James Clement (“Survivor: China”) going home with two idols in his pocket,
Jay Starrett (“Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen X”) playing a fake idol at tribal council, 
Eliza Orlins (“Survivor: Micronesia”) unwrapping what she thought was an idol only to discover that “it’s a f***ing stick,” 
Mike Zahalsky (“Survivor: Heroes v. Healers v. Hustlers”) throwing a piece of Lauren Rimmer‘s idol into the fire.

Quotes:

We found a really creepy island that serves as Ghost Island and we designed it using actual Survivor items from previous seasons. For instance, castaways who spend the night on Ghost Island will sleep underneath the 35 previous torch snuffers. So as they drift off, they are reminded that one mistake can mean your death in the game

They are almost all super-fans and really know the show and its history, which adds a lot to a season like this.

if you are sent to Ghost Island, you will learn very quickly that it speaks to you with a lot of attitude. It will say things like, 'Feeling lucky?' You have an opportunity to improve your status in the game if you're willing to risk something.
