"Choke me like you hate me but you love me..."
Corpse Husband, sometimes also known as simply CORPSE, is a recording artist, YouTuber, and Twitch streamer known for his distinctively deep speaking voice. His channel can be found here
.
Not much is known about Corpse. Born in San Diego in 1997, he started his YouTube channel in 2015, narrating horror stories. In 2016, he began making music as well, often collaborating with other artists such as Savage Ga$p and Machine Gun Kelly. His biggest hit, "E-Girls Are Ruining My Life!", was released in September 2020.
Corpse is a member of the "Amigops", an informal group of YouTubers including Valkyrae and Sykkuno, and has livestreamed with them on several games, including Among Us and Rust.
Corpse Husband and his videos provide examples of:
- Animal Motifs: Cats and rabbits. The former is because of his Minecraft username and skin is a anthropomorphic sphinx cat (based off of a viral Internet cat named "Bingus") wearing a Hooters employee uniform, the latter because his mask is reminiscent of Frank the bunny boy from Donnie Darko.
- Ambiguously Brown: Occasionally has dropped hints that he may have Mexican or Native American ancestry.
- Aroused by Their Voice: Due to his distinctive, deep voice, both men and women have shown attraction to him during livestreams.
- Berserk Button: At least 4 different times in the Among Us game. If Sykkuno were to be killed by an imposter in front of Corpse, the latter will become tranquillingly terrifying and will not hesitate to get the killer to be voted off one way or another. GeorgeNotFound, Valkyrae, and Disguised Toast all found this out the hard way.Corpse: (to George) [Sykkuno and I] let you live and then you fucking kill him in front of me, are you serious? This is so disrespectful!
- Blessed with Suck: While Corpse's deep voice has made him famous on YouTube, Corpse reveals that it's actually quite painful to live with. Corpse's voice is actually a result of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and the disease damages his esophagus by Corpse unwittingly breathing in his own stomach acid. As a result of the disease, Corpse often loses his voice and has had to have his nose and throat examined with invasive cameras.
- Broken Ace: Check Dark and Troubled Past below...
- Catchphrase: "Whaddup, baby~?"
- The Chessmaster: As seen in his Among Us videos, he's very good at manipulating his friends.
- Dark and Troubled Past: Hoo boy... From what is known, his father left him when he was 2, forcing his mother to look and take care of him and his little sister alone. His family was also very poor and, speaking of, he has no contact of any kind with any members of his family currently. He dropped out of middle school when he was 12 because he had a problem with authority figures and because the teachers didn't like him (with the only subjects he ever did good at being Computation and Grammar). He dove headfirst into work and worked as hard as he could so he could raise himself, living alone in an apartment with his then-girlfriend, who broke up with him and led into a deep depression, anxiety and agoraphobia. Then, his mother got cancer and he couldn't help her because he had his own health issues to take care of. First came Fibromyalgia (which took a very long time to be diagnosed), then GERD (which hindered his exercise and weight-lifting routine), then a number of chronic diseases like insomnia. This man is in dire need of a hug.
- Dark Is Not Evil: He clearly has a dark, goth aesthetic going on coupled with his dark, gravely voice that makes literally anything sound scary, ideal for a horror story narrator. However, everyone who's ever met him comments on how much of a Nice Guy he is.
- Deadpan Snarker: Possesses a wicked and deadpan sense of humor.
- The Faceless: Corpse's real appearance is unknown. He has only shown rare photos of his hands with accessories and a strand of his hair. Even among Corpse's friends, only a few of his trusted friends (Sykkuno, Boyinaband, Anthony Padilla and Jacksepticeye) are confirmed to have seen Corpse's face.
- Ham and Deadpan Duo: Corpse is the Deadpan to Sykkuno's Ham.
- Heterosexual Life-Partners: He is this with Sykkuno.
- Ink-Suit Actor: Has claimed that his avatar is more or less what he really looks like (presumably the half that isn't a purple demon bunny, but who knows).
- Intercourse with You: A number of his songs fall into this category, most notably "E-Girls Are Ruining My Life!"
- Kindhearted Cat Lover: Has an adorable obsession with Bingus, the sphynx cat.
- Mean Character, Nice Actor: Scary voice and Goth aesthetic. Original content largely consists of horror story narration and dark aggressive music. And everyone who has ever personally interacted with him calls him the nicest person in the world.
- Mook Horror Show: A video from his clips channel is of him and some friends playing Friday the 13th: The Game, in which Corpse plays the role of Jason and takes great pleasure in terrorizing and toying with his friends before ending them, especially with Ludwig who had come back in the role of Tommy after Corpse killed him once.Ludwig: Why did the killer have to be the one guy whose voice literally sounds like The Grim Reaper?
Ludwig: (after Corpse has killed everyone) We should not allow Corpse to be the killer because I am going to get trauma. - Rap Metal: His song "CODE MISTAKE," which features metalcore band Bring Me the Horizon.
- The Storyteller: He was known for narrating horror stories.
- Trademark Favourite Food: Lobster bisque, if anything.
- True Companions: He and the Amigops are extremely protective of each other, especially Sykkuno, who has basically become his Heterosexual Life-Partner.
