Drew & the ‘Mistletoe Murders’ Crew Celebrate Season 3
“Back at it here in Fletcher’s Grove!!” Drew wrote in the caption of her May 14 Instagram post. The carousel post starts off with a reel of Drew on set alongside some of her co-stars, Lara Amersey, Melanie Orr, and Peter Mooney. In the reel, Drew starts to say “It’s season…” before Amersey, Orr, and Mooney suddenly jump into frame to complete the phrase together with a cheerful, “Three!”
Mooney then hilariously bolts out of frame, prompting laughter from the rest of the group.
The post continues with a series of snapshots, including a “Mistletoe Murders” Season 3 slate, festive donuts that spell out “Mistletoe Murders” Season 3, Drew posing in front of a trailer mirror with gifts and a card addressed to her.
