“Thank you for sharing,” snarks a mysterious voice in the just-released teaser for Justice’s Eye Candy, based on the novel of the same name by R. L. Stine. “It makes it so easy to be your follower.”

“I know sharing makes you feel alive, which is funny, because you don’t know it yet, but you’re already dead,” continues the voice.

Premiering Monday, January 12, at 10:00 pm ET, the 10-episode series follows a New York City tech genius named Lindy Sampson (Justice) who discovers that one of her online suitors might be a wanted murderer.

The series also stars Harvey Guillen as George.

MTV has given Justice’s new series a 10-episode order.

The pilot, which will undergo extensive recasting and will be reshot, stars Justice as tech genius Lindy, who begins to suspect that one of her online suitors might be a deadly cyber stalker.

Of the original cast members, only Guillen will stay on alongside Justice, with all other roles recast for a new pilot episode.
