Halloween just got a lot spookier. After a run of cryptic social media teasers, YouTube’s ghost-hunting duo Sam and Colby have confirmed their jump to Netflix.

### Sam and Colby: Overview

| Detail | Info |
| --- | --- |
| Who | Sam Golbach and Colby Brock |
| Release date | October 1, 2026, worldwide |
| What’s coming | A collection of their spooky episodes |
| Main channel | 16.3M subscribers, 2.5B+ views |
| Second channel | *Sam and Colby Reacts*, nearly 3M subscribers |

### What to Expect?

The duo investigates the world’s most haunted places, hunting for paranormal evidence to answer one big question: are ghosts real? It’s the same formula that helped them build a huge following over more than a decade, starting on Vine before moving to YouTube and expanding across TikTok and Instagram.

Fans got a hint days earlier when the pair thanked their community in a teaser post and promised “2 major announcements” coming soon. One was their annual “HELL WEEK” event. Now we know the second.

### Why Is Netflix Signing YouTubers?

[Sam and Colby](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_and_Colby) are the latest in a growing trend. Netflix has been partnering with top creators throughout 2026, including:

- **Rhett & Link:** *Good Mythical Morning* and *Mythical Kitchen* arrived on September 7.
- ***The Amazing Digital Circus***, with a day-and-date streaming deal.
- ***The Besties***, which recently confirmed a move too.
- **Kids’ creators:** Ms. Rachel, Mark Rober, Danny Go!, ChuChu TV and more.

The logic is simple. Younger audiences spend huge chunks of screen time on YouTube, so Netflix hopes they’ll stay after finishing a favorite creator’s episodes and discover its other shows. These deals are also often non-exclusive, so creators keep their YouTube presence.

### Should You Watch?

If you love true-crime-style spookiness, haunted locations and Halloween binges, this looks like an easy pick. Since it’s a collection of existing-style episodes, it works well for casual viewers too.
