For YouTube ghost hunters Sam and Colby, October is the most important month of the year. As their channel surges past one billion lifetime views, Sam Golbach and Colby Brock are unveiling their scariest spooky season slate so far: Their latest Hell Week will include seven horror documentaries, which will be released over two weeks beginning on October 16.
Sam and Colby’s occult adventures have brought 7.8 million subscribers to their channel and unlocked numerous opportunities, including a book deal and a U.S. tour. October is usually the busiest time of the year for the duo, and they spent months preparing for their return to Hell Week. Before October 16, their last upload came on August 28.
The end of that month-long hiatus is bringing a flurry of activity to the Sam and Colby channel. In trailers for Hell Week 2022, Golbach and Brock described the 14-day bonanza as “by far the scariest content we will ever post” and “our biggest event of the year.” For their ballyhooed series, the two paranormal investigations will be joined by a litany of guest stars, including Michelle Khare, Kallmekris, and CelinaSpookyBoo.

Even though Sam and Colby have survived Hell Week in the past, they still have plenty of spooky locations to explore across the United States. For their first October upload of 2022, they traveled to Texas, where they spent the night in the abandoned Yorktown Memorial Hospital.
Across an hour-long documentary, Sam, Colby, and their friends discuss the lore behind the hospital as well as its history of hauntings. Then, as they explore deeper into the facility, they encounter unexplainable noises, frightening phenomena, and enough scares to make their visit into “a night turned demonic.”
Sam and Colby’s fans can expect a new documentary to arrive every other day until Halloween. I’ll be eager to see how the two creators top this scary spectacle in 2023 — if they can survive that long.
