Listening to the radio all day so you could make a mixtape of your favorite songs on cassette and label it "The Ultimate Summer Mixtape Volume 1." Oh, the nostalgia. Over 20 photos and three preview videos have been released for the third installment in Freeform's Dead of Summer, titled, "Mix Tape", which was directed by Mick Garris (The Stand miniseries) and guest stars Andrew J. West (The Walking Dead).

Episode 103 – "Mix Tape": "A night off duty for some of the counselors provides welcome opportunities for romance, but could end on a darker note in “Mix Tape,” an all-new episode of “Dead of Summer,” airing TUESDAY, JULY 12 (9:00 – 10:00 p.m. EDT), on Freeform."

"Set in the late 1980s, school is out for the summer, and a sun-drenched season of firsts beckons the counselors at Camp Stillwater, a seemingly idyllic Midwestern summer camp, including first loves, first kisses—and first kills. Stillwater’s dark, ancient mythology awakens, and what was supposed to be a summer of fun soon turns into one of unforgettable scares and evil at every turn.

The series stars Elizabeth Mitchell (“Lost,” ”The Purge: Election Year”) as Deborah “Deb” Carpenter, Elizabeth Lail (“Once Upon a Time”) as Amy Hughes, Zelda Williams (“Teen Wolf”) as Drew Reeves, Mark Indelicato (“Ugly Betty”) as Blair."

Directed by Mick Garris from a script by Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, "Mix Tape" airs on Tuesday, July 12th at 9:00 pm ET on Freeform.

    About the Author - Tamika Jones

    Tamika hails from North Beach, Maryland, a tiny town inches from the Chesapeake Bay.She knew she wanted to be an actor after reciting a soliloquy by Sojourner Truth in front of her entire fifth grade class. Since then, she's appeared in over 20 film and television projects. In addition to acting, Tamika is the Indie Spotlight manager for Daily Dead, where she brings readers news on independent horror projects every weekend.

    The first horror film Tamika watched was Child's Play. Being eight years old at the time, she remembers being so scared when Chucky came to life that she projectile vomited. It's tough for her to choose only one movie as her favorite horror film, so she picked two: Nosferatu and The Stepford Wives (1975).
