During the first few weeks of the game, many of Thompson's fellow contestants said that they didn't believe he was really a groundskeeper. As such, during his previously announced appearance on the soap opera, the writers will be alluding to this.
"We're going to have fun with all the speculations about Donny's 'real' career and it'll involve a lot of costume changes," the soap opera's supervising producer Casey Kasprzyk revealed to TVGuide.com.
Thompson will appear in the Halloween episode but he won't be the only contestant from Big Brother 16 guest starring. He will be joined by Amber Borzotra, Caleb Reynolds, Cody Calafiore, Devin Shepherd, Hayden Voss, Nicole Franzel and Zach Rance.
Past Big Brother favorites Rachel Reilly, Elissa Slater, Brendon Villegas, Jeff Schroeder and Jordan Lloyd will also appear in the episode.
"We were only limited by time and budget," Kasprzyk said. "Otherwise, we would have invited even more houseguests. This was a season of terrific personalities."
Thompson, who won the America's Favorite Houseguest vote, spoke with TVGuide about his newfound popularity.
"It was a real honor to have the fans pick me as 'America's Favorite.' They say I got 5 million votes, which I can't even get my mind around," he said. "I got a stipend for doing the show which is $15,000, plus $15,000 for being part of Team America and $25,000 for America's Favorite. That's more money than if I'd won second place, so this turned out pretty good all the way around."
