00:00Creepypasta narrator-turned-musician Corpse Husband has become a beloved internet figure
00:05to his legions of fans. But when the Among Us streamer suddenly withdrew from social media
00:09and YouTube, fans began scrambling to figure out what led Corpse to sneak off of the internet.
00:14Corpse Husband has been relatively quiet on social media and streaming platforms for the
00:18past two years. He hasn't uploaded a video to YouTube since November 2021,
00:22and his last Instagram post was on March 31, 2021. Although his Twitter account has been
00:28slightly more active with seven updates mainly about his music career in 2022,
00:32he has only tweeted a few times in 2023. Most recently, Corpse tweeted out a promo
00:37for his new song with Bring Me the Horizon, code MISTAKE. Around the same time that Corpse's social
00:42media presence diminished, he decided to stop streaming. He explained his decision on one
00:46very such stream,
00:48"...every single stream, I would just, I would be, like, shaking the whole time,
00:51and I was like, yeah, I don't really think I enjoy doing this."
00:54While Corpse may no longer go live on his Twitch account or post to his YouTube channel,
00:58he still occasionally appears in streams with other popular content creators like Pokémon
01:02and Valkyrae. He also sometimes responds to others' social media posts, though he mainly
01:06communicates in emojis. While Corpse Husband enjoys his online privacy, he has revealed some
01:11truly sad aspects of his life. In an interview with Anthony Padilla, he revealed that he has
01:16long suffered from anxiety, which his sudden surge in popularity exacerbated to the point
01:20where he found it difficult to go outside.
01:22"...I have, like, very bad anxiety. I never leave my house."
01:28Additionally, he lives with several health conditions, including fibromyalgia,
01:32gastroesophageal reflux disease, and thoracic outlet syndrome, among others. The alleged
01:37reveal of Corpse Husband's face may have also contributed to his decision to withdraw from
01:41the public eye. In 2021, the content creator had predicted that a face reveal would happen,
01:46inevitably against his will. He also said,
01:49"...I just deeply f----- hate my face, and people's expectations at this point
01:54are ridiculous and unachievable."
01:57It remains unclear if the person in the image that circulated on social media in 2021 is
02:02actually Corpse Husband or not. Many of the responses criticized the appearance of the
02:06individual in the photo. This echoes some of the harassments he had dealt with in the past
02:10related to what he looks like.
02:11"...Even with my hands, people, like, Photoshop them and criticize my hands."
02:15"...That's why I wanted to die early, see?"
02:18"...Like, the small bits of me they do see, they criticize."
02:21It is possible that Corpse Husband has decided to shift his focus to other endeavors instead
02:25of continuing to pursue content creation. Valkyrae stated in May 2023 that this is
02:30exactly why he isn't around much anymore. He's just been busy with other endeavors.
02:34"...He's not just a streamer, you know, he's not a streamer, he's a, he does,
02:38he has a different occupation."
02:42Corpse has remained active in the entertainment industry, with his music career continuing to
02:46gain momentum. Since 2020, he has released multiple singles, including a collaboration
02:50with Machine Gun Kelly on the song Daywalker in early 2021. Moreover, his track,
02:55"'Eagles Are Ruining My Life,' achieved platinum status in 2022. In addition to his music career,
03:01Corpse Husband has also been making a name for himself in the voice acting industry.
03:05He lent his voice to narrate a short animated film for Dying Light 2,
03:08which was part of the game's pre-release marketing campaign. A few months later,
03:12he made his debut in the world of anime by providing the voice for Ojiro Otori
03:16in the English dub version of Tribe 9. It is clear that Corpse Husband's talents
03:20extend beyond streaming, and he has even been successful in branching out to explore other
03:25creative avenues. If you or someone you know needs help with mental health, please contact
