Evil Dead hero Bruce Campbell is returning to the small screen, with the Travel Channel confirming that Ashy Slashy himself will serve as the new host of the rebooted Ripley's Believe It or Not!

Following some teasing, the news was made official on New Year's Day, and to go along with the announcement, a new trailer was revealed: The new acting gig for Campbell comes in the wake of his Evil Dead TV series Ash Vs. Evil Dead, which was cancelled last year after three seasons.

The newly rebooted Ripley's Believe It or Not! does not yet have a firm premiere date, but it is due out later this year.
