Corpse Husband managed to become one of the biggest internet personalities in the last quarter of 2020. Many streamers and content creators benefitted from Among Us' popularity, but none quite like him. The game gave the unusually deep voice that he's known for a great deal of exposure, allowing the 23-year-old to rake in 6.58 million followers in just a few months. Since blowing up with Among Us, he's branched out to other games such as Raft and Phasmophobia with other big content creators.
Unfortunately, Corpse may not have it in him to continue streaming the way he does. The YouTuber revealed that he suffers from chronic illnesses that leave him in constant pain and that streaming aggravates them. He can only stick to playing more lax games because of this, such as the OfflineTV Rust server and the other previously mentioned. However, even this is still taxing because he struggles with light sensitivity, so staring at a screen for more than five minutes damages his eyes.

In one of his most recent streams, Corpse stated that the effects streaming has on his illnesses were getting worse. He needed to end one of his streams early because it caused one of his arms to go numb and his nose to start bleeding. What's worse, he's afraid of going out to see doctors for fear that he'll be recognized over his voice. He hasn't done a face reveal yet because he's not comfortable with the idea of being a public figure.
Overall, Corpse doesn't think he'll be able to physically continue streaming going into 2021, but he does have a fallback plan should that happen. Before streaming games, Corpse told horror stories on his YouTube channel and created music. He could go back to telling horror stories, but if streaming games doesn't work out, he really wants to pour himself into his music. He already had a following on Spotify before his YouTube took off, and it's only grown since then.
A post shared by Corpse Husband (@corpsehusband) on Mar 22, 2020 at 10:47pm PDT He also admits to some hesitation in wanting to show what he looks like now, as fans have built up an image of who he is in their heads for several years. Streamer and singer Corpse Husband has received his fair share of free promotion due to his fan base. Over the weekend, half a million Corpse fans liked a tweet, earning him a Times Square. Among Us has a fairly simple control mechanic, which means that Corpse Husband can stream the game more comfortably and give their best wit and charm in the process. Corpse Husband’s amiable and enrapturing honesty extends beyond the very real talk about their health and wellness, however.
In other words, even if Corpse does quit streaming, he won't be leaving the spotlight for good, just changing platforms. As of this writing, his Spotify has over 1.06 million followers and 3.79 million monthly listeners. His number of social media followers is also exceptional, with 5.1 million spread across Twitter and Instagram. Should he stop streaming, a good percentage of Corpse's millions of YouTube subs will probably join his Spotify as well if they haven't already.

In the following days, Corpse mobilized his followers, asking them in two separateposts to like the tweet to get his message on the Billboard and promote his music.
Fellow influencers like Jimmy Donaldson, known as MrBeast, and Dream responded, imploring their own fan bases to like the tweet. The competition was close with Jonathan Schlatt, known as streamer JSchlatt, but by the time the contest closed two days later on Saturday, Corpse had won out with over half a million likes.

Fans also flew a banner over San Diego to promote Corpse's latest single
In January, Corpse tweeted that he had added his song 'Agoraphobic' to Spotify, which his fans have already listened to over nine million times.
On February 3, Em, who runs the fan account @WESTCOASTC0RPSE on Twitter, tweeted out that they would be raising money to have a banner promoting 'Agoraphobic' flown over San Diego, Corpse's suspected home town. The community needed $595 to fly the banner for around 15 minutes.

'It started out as a joke between me and a friend because we were making stupid edits really late at night and I ended up requesting a quote from a company,' Emma told Insider. 'It turned into a really great way for us to do something fun as a community while also giving back and putting a little positivity into the world!'
Over the next two weeks, the stans went into action, gathering what was needed to get the banner up. On top of that, $1,558 was raised on PayPal to go to the National Fibromyalgia Association since Corpse in the past has tweeted that he deals with the condition.
'Em wanted to take this to the next level and cause some real-life chaos,' Spoons, a Corpse stan on Twitter who helped set-up the charity PayPal and the banner, said.

'He's a sweetheart and I really vibe to his music,' Emma said of her feelings towards Corpse. 'I think everyone joined it because it's an absolutely insane idea and if it happened it would be hilarious, but also because it was an opportunity to donate to a cause that helps those suffering with chronic illnesses.'
