Mad House 15

**Mad House 15**, also known as **Mad House: Second Chances**, is the fifteenth season of The Mad House series.

## Overview

### Twists

* **Returning Players:** 36 former contestants, all of whom have played only once and did not win the game, returned for a possible second chance. However, initially only 16 contestants moved in on the first day, 10 whom were determined by public vote and the remaining 6 chosen by production.
	+ **Second Chance House:** The 20 Hopefuls who were not chosen were informed that they would move into the Second Chance House and await for the chance to officially enter the game. The six Hopefuls who made it into the main house were Jade Jones & Orson Khouw in Week 2, Destiny Rogers & Winston Foster in Week 3, and Bryan Spyder & Quin Martinez in Week 4.
* **Have-Not Punishments:** Each have-not was randomly assigned a punishment this season to add an extra element to the game. The punishments were as follows:
	+ **Sitting Duck:** This HouseGuest will be ineligible to compete in the Power of Protection competition, regardless of their status as a nominee or not.
	+ **Isolation:** Immediately after the Power of Protection Ceremony, the HouseGuest will be placed into Isolation until the Live Eviction.
	+ **The Void:** A HouseGuests' vote will be tossed into The Void, meaning it will not count should they not be a nominee.
	+ **Hot Seat:** This HouseGuest will be automatically on the block as the third nominee. Should they win and/or be saved by the POP, no replacement will be named in their place.
	+ **Repeat:** No direct punishment will be given to a HouseGuest. However, they will have to repeat this process next week, meaning they will automatically be a have-not, have to sit out in the HA Competition and take another risk at a punishment.
* **Second Chance Twists:** This season featured various twists from the past in an attempt to allowed the HouseGuests to overcome previous twists that they may have been affected by.
	+ **Split House Double Eviction:** During Week 3, the HouseGuests were separated into two groups. Two House Ambassador's were crowned, two Powers of Protection were in play and two HouseGuests were evicted by the end of the week.
	+ **Secret House Ambassador:** During Week 5, the House Ambassador was kept a secret from the house. They could share this information if they wanted to, but they were not guaranteed have status, could not vote and were ineligible to win the following House Ambassador competition as well.
	+ **Cliques:** During Week 6, the HouseGuests were randomly assigned into different cliques.
	+ **Triple Eviction:** During Week 7, the format for the Triple Eviction was a mix of the original vote to save followed by a Chain of Safety Instant Eviction.
