Joey Graceffa’s ‘Escape The Night’ Teases Season 4, Becoming Longest-Running YouTube Original Ever

After debuting in June 2016, the longest-running original series in YouTube history has just put out a mysterious tease for its fourth season.

Vlogger Joey Graceffa’s lightly-scripted murder mystery Escape The Night — which brings together a slew of top YouTube creators, who portray different characters and attempting to stay alive by solving various challenges and puzzles — will return on July 11.

Graceffa serves as both creator and star of the show, and past seasons have featured the likes of Safiya Nygaard, Jesse Wellens, and Manny MUA. The teaser for season four that Graceffa shared today — alongside a caption that reads ‘Be careful what you wish for’ — sees the bespectacled star walking in the dark with a torch in hand, whereupon he suddenly throws an object at the camera (though it’s unclear what).

The first episode of seasons one, two, and three of Escape The Night have netted 20 million, 26 million, and 12 million views, respectively (which is the only viewership information that YouTube discloses for its original programming). Between seasons, Graceffa has busied himself with an EP called Kingdom and a YA book series called Rebels Of Eden, for which he was forced to cancel a promotional tour due to health setbacks.
