ITV bosses have tightened security after it emerged a vicious killer is on the loose in the area surrounding the jungle celebrities camp.
New South Wales police launched a massive manhunt this week after a 50-year-old man was found dead in Jack Evans Boat Harbour, Tweed Heads.
The area, near the Queensland-New South Wales border, is just 30 minutes from Murwillumbah, where Im A Celebrity is now being filmed.
And sources say that show bosses, who are aware of the ongoing search, have now ensured that their security measures are impenetrable.
But the news of the horror will stun the jungle celebs when they emerge from the Australian camp, after being cut off from the outside world.
One said: The celebs are being watched 24 hours a day, seven days a week by a team of staff and our security measures are incredibly tight.
So there is zero chance of anyone sneaking into camp.
But of course it is very unsettling to know that there is someone out there, running from the police, who has committed such a horrible crime.
THE taxman hit Im A Celebritys JACQUELINE JOSSA with a 32,000 bill before she entered the jungle.
The sum is in documents filed by the former EastEnders actresss now-liquidated firm Pooker Bash Limited.
She owes 21,906 in corporation tax and 10,100 in VAT.
The mum-of-two, who is married to The Only Way Is Essex star DAN OSBORNE, also has to pay 1,900 accountancy fees.
Her spokesman said: There is a small amount of tax which she is paying back in stages.
