The Ghosts

While there was a Ghost movie-themed photo shoot during episode two of this season's Bachelor, Bachelorette Heather claims there's a real ghost haunting the Hunters Hill mansion where the ladies are being housed.

Intruders

Will there be an intruder this year? Fashion blogger Aley Greenblo was tapped by producers last year to appear as an intruder in the house, ruffling feathers with the existing Bachelorettes.

'I was actually approached as an intruder,' Aley confirms. 'I didn't audition – I just got an email one day asking if I wanted to be on it.'

Casting

Big personalities make for big drama. And big drama makes for a hit TV show.

Bachelorette Amber, who vied for Blake's affection, confesses it was pretty cut-throat from day one.

'They got two girls and it was like: "OK, tell her something... you hate about her,"' she reveals.
