Surprisingly, no elimination occurred in Episode 7 of House of Villains Season 2, though the episode set the stage for a dramatic upcoming banishment ceremony with Safaree, Victoria, and Larsa placed on the Hit List.
The episode, which aired on Thursday night on E!, continued to showcase the intense power dynamics and strategic gameplay that have made this reality competition series a must-watch.

House of Villains brings together some of reality TV's most notorious personalities to compete for a grand prize of $200,000, with contestants facing weekly challenges and elimination ceremonies called "Banishments."
Each week, one villain becomes the Supervillain of the Week, gaining the power to nominate three others for potential elimination on the House of Villains.
New Supervillain of the Week chosen on House of Villains Season 2 Episode 7
The episode kicked off in the aftermath of Camilla's elimination, with tensions running high and alliances showing clear cracks.
Former RuPaul's Drag Race star Kandy Muse, who had been watching her allies get picked off one by one, entered this episode of House of Villains with revenge on her mind. The mysterious 4-2 vote that sent Camilla home left questions lingering about loyalty within the house, adding another layer of paranoia to the already tense atmosphere.
This week's Battle Royale Challenge, aptly named "Blood On Your Hands," transformed the Stronghold into a plastic-wrapped arena where contestants donned hazmat suits. The challenge involved a deceptively simple game of trickery: villains had to convince their opponents to open bags potentially filled with fake blood, with the last clean contestant claiming victory.
In a surprising turn of events, Kandy Muse emerged victorious, earning the coveted title of Supervillain of the Week on this episode of House of Villains.
Wes attempts cunning new strategies to win
The episode featured a particularly crafty move by MTV’s The Challenge star Wes, who attempted to outmaneuver his competitors by creating a fake immunity pass.
His elaborate scheme involved crafting a convincing prop that promised immunity to its finder. However, his plan began to unravel when he overplayed his hand, claiming to Kandy that the pass could override her Supervillain status – a lie that proved too ambitious to maintain.
Meanwhile, houseguests Teresa and Tiffany managed to settle their differences from their previous explosive confrontation, thanks to Larsa's unexpected mediation skills.
The reconciliation provided a brief moment of peace in an otherwise chaotic episode of House of Villains, though Tiffany's attempt to smooth things over by comparing Teresa's show to "Mob Wives" might not have been the most tactful approach.
Setting up for a dramatic 'Banishment'
As the new Supervillain of the Week, Kandy chose to bring Jessie and New York along for her reward, citing trust in Jessie and acknowledging New York's unpredictable but potentially valuable alliance. When it came time for nominations, Kandy played it smart by targeting Wes's allies rather than going after him directly, placing Safaree, Victoria, and Larsa on the Hit List.
House of Villains Season 2 Episode 7 concluded with escalating tensions between Victoria and Larsa, whose rivalry has become increasingly toxic. Their bitter exchanges following the nominations suggested that their feud had reached a breaking point, with Larsa declaring the situation "toxic" and Victoria expressing a desire for physical confrontation.
With three formidable contestants on the Hit List and alliances continuing to shift, Episode 8 promises to be a pivotal moment in House of Villains Season 2.
The growing tension between Victoria and Larsa could significantly influence the upcoming vote, while Wes's failed immunity scheme may have damaged his credibility in the house. As Kandy finally gains some power after losing multiple allies, the question remains whether she can maintain this momentum or if the house's dominant alliance will regain control.
One thing's certain: in the fight for $200,000, there's no such thing as playing too dirty.
Season 2 of House of Villains airs Thursday nights at 10/9c on E!.
