Amazon Prime Video’s original series Last One Laughing is returning for a Halloween special this October, it has announced.

Fans of the show were told today (August 12) to expect a spooky twist on the hilarious show that sees comedians attempt to make others laugh without laughing themselves when stuck in a room together.

They’ll perform on stage and attempt to crack their fellow comedians with yellow cards given to all participants on their first laughs and a red card for any second laughs, booting them from the game.

Jimmy Carr returns to present the show with the help of Roisin Conaty and in the first-look pictures are comedians Reece Shearsmith, Daisy May Cooper, Phil Wang, Jack Dee, Harriet Dyer, and Tom Allen.

Announcing the news, Prime Video said: "The rules?

"Make everyone else laugh, don’t laugh yourself, and... Whatever happens? Don’t scream."

The first three episodes will be released from October 23, while episode four will be released on October 30, the day before Halloween.

Fans of the original series are excited by the news of the spin-off, with one saying on Instagram: "REECE!! 👏👏👏".

Someone else said: "I don't think Tom will survive the first hour🤣".

Another shared: "Jack Dee bringing the tough competition!"
