## **Twists**

* **Twin Twist:** This season, twins Amogh Yededji and Nikita Yededji entered the house together, however they're competing by themself.

* **Apocalypse Strikes:** The Apocalypse struck inside the Big Brother house week 2, thus giving 2 houseguests immunity for the week, this became Minetou Mounah and Nikita Yededji.

* **Double Eviction & Big Brother Zombies:** Every 3 weeks will have an Apocalypse twist to it. The two houseguests evicted on the Double Eviction will turn into "Big Brother Zombies". Later that night, they will move back into the house as Zombies, and the week will play out with no HOH or POV competitions. At the end of the next week, one of the two will return to the game, while the other is out of the game for good. Because there were no competitions during the next week, the outgoing HOH heading into the week after the competition. would be eligible to compete again.

* **No Apocalypse Power:** This twist played out like the Haulting Hex. If one houseguest takes the temptation, they will be able to stop any of the next four evictions. This power was won by Javier Cruz.

* **Instant Eviction:** The second part of week 16's double eviction, was an instant eviction.
