Sutton Stracke and Jennifer Tilly about See what's happening live.

Tilly plays the role of a “friend of” in Beverly Hillsa supporting role that means Tilly will be seen frequently, but it is unlikely that her personal drama will be the focus. She has previously appeared on the show as the girlfriend of cast member (and American Ballet Theatre board member) Sutton Stracke. Tilly and Stracke have been friends for a decade, which led to Stracke appearing in the Chucky television series.

In 2021, Tilly wore a Tiffany Valentine-inspired sequin dress See what's happening live.

As a fan of the show, Tilly briefly visited the RHOBH Drama on another See what's happening live Appearance in the promotion of Chucky series premiere. She said: “I think Kyle [Richards] instigates fights…don't @ me, Kyle!”

Tilly will not be the first scream queen to take part The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Since the series is set in Los Angeles, a number of horror actors have appeared:

Kyle Richards (right) in Halloween (1978)

Longtime cast member Kyle Richards played Angie in Eaten alive (1976), little Lindsey Wallace in Halloween (1978) and recently played again in Halloween Kills (2021) and Halloween ends (2022). As a child actress, she was involved in many projects of her sister, the former RHOBH Actor Kim Richards was hired. A fun movie fact is that Kim's harrowing death in John Carpenter's action thriller Attack on District 13 (1976) caused so much controversy at the MPAA (because it showed the bloody death of a child) that it intentionally left almost no blood in Halloween (1978).

Richards’ third sister, Kathy Hilton, was also a child actress and appeared in horror-related roles in an episode of In love with a witch (1971).

Another cast member, Garcelle Beauvais, is a successful television actress who has appeared in a horror film: as an FBI agent in I know who killed me (2007).

Former cast member Eileen Davidson played Vicki in The house on Sorority Row (1982).

Former cast member Denise Richards made an appearance in Horror Movie 3 (2003), an incredible murder scene in the whirlpool Valentine's Day (2000) and starred with Mischa Barton in the supernatural horror film The toy box (2018).

Former cast member Lisa Rinna appeared in the third season of American Horror Stories in the episode “Tapeworm”.

Through Kyle's ongoing friendship with Jamie Lee Curtis, the Scream Queen also appeared on RHOBH to host a luncheon for her company (which supports the Children's Hospital Los Angeles), My Hand in Yours. Although Curtis says she has never seen an episode of Real Housewivesshe appreciated the strangely warm welcome she received from the other ladies. Curtis also appeared at the season reunion to announce that her appearance on the show was the biggest day in My Hand in Yours history and to promote the (then) upcoming Halloween ends (2022).

In the same way as you guys [the Bravo housewives] I have a huge fan base, that's what horror fans are like. And I feel their love.

Jamie Lee Curtis, reunion in season 12 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

Moderator Andy Cohen asked Jamie Lee Curtis how he felt about his role as Laurie Strode in Halloween Films through the decades. It comes out at 4:08 and Andy asks about Halloween at 6:08.

These candid moments from horror actors were a delicious treat for diehard fans of Bravo shows and horror movies. We hope the addition of Jennifer Tilly gives us some fun behind-the-scenes insights Chucky Treats and maybe performances by other scream queens. Can we hope for a The real scream queens of Los Angeles spin off?

The fourteenth season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills will air on Bravo in late 2024 or early 2025.
