YouTuber Drama: Creepshow Art Stalks Emily Artful, Harasses Other Youtubers and Doxes Own Sibling
Oh boy. If you're not familiar with Creepshow art, I envy you. She iswas an art YouTuber who would show SpeedPaints of her art while talking over it about drama of the week or her own storytimes. Creepshow, real name Shannon, sat at about half a million subscribers as of last month and allegedly made about $20k per month on YouTube. She would post multiple times a week, capitalizing on hot topics to maximize views.
Then, last month, the mods of online anonymous shit talking forum lolcow made a post informing their community that they had compiled just shy of 300 posts made by Creepshow/Shannon. And shit hit the fan.
Warning: This is a text and video heavy post!!
Anyone can post on lolcow about whatever they want but there are rules and if you break these rules, your anonymity is forfeit. Shannon broke the rules by not only promoting her own art and videos ad nausea but also by doxxing her own sibling - which was the final straw for the mods.
Some of the lolcow highlights include Shannon talking about herself and to herself about herself, talking a lot of shit about other artists, namely Gothcell and Emily Artful, and talking shit about every YouTuber under the sun.
If you'd like to go through her hundreds of posts yourself, you may do so here.
In addition to the posts pictured above, Shannon also made dozens if not hundreds of posts talking shit about YouTubers she was personal friends with. She would literally be texting these people that she loved them or sending them flowers one minute and going to lolcow to call them annoying, ugly clout chasers behind their back.
Click to viewAs the lolcow drama was unfolding, YouTuber Emily Artful compiled a video of her own. Emily is an artist who posts SpeedPaints while... Doing storytimes over them. Well, that sounds familiar. Is she a Creepshow Art ripoff? Oh no. No, no, no, no, no. In fact, it's quite the other way around. Shannon got the idea to start making her videos after seeing Emily Artful. But that's not all - Shannon and her boyfriend/husband have also been stalking and harassing Emily Artful for years.
This is a long watch and discusses drug addiction, emotional abuse, eating disorder and rape. It is obviously very emotional at times.
A (not so) quick rundown -
Emily used to date Shannon's now husband, Anthony. He was abusive towards Emily, who was addicted to drugs at the time. When she was passed out on heroin, he raped her, which she has hazy memories of. They broke up because he was jealous of her hanging out with gay men. I can't make it up!
He went on to date Shannon, who unbeknownst to Emily, began to cyberstalk Emily. Emily's Facebook account was hacked and she was unable to recover it. Via access to her Facebook messages, Anthony and Shannon were able to get compromising images of Emily when she was underage, which they would use for years to attempt to blackmail her.
When Emily started her YouTube channel, she began getting negative comments from sock puppet comments. When her first video did numbers, Anthony contacted her on twitter to harass her about buying subscribers, something she did not do.
Two years after Emily created her channel, Shannon created Creepshow Art and began to also do sketchbook storytime videos, under the same name as Emily was using. Emily contacted her and asked her to use a different name, very politely, not knowing who Shannon was. Shannon agreed. After this interaction, more sock puppet accounts emerged and the harassment worsened.
An anonymous stalker (who we now know is allegedly Anthony) came to Emily's town and began to harass her with threats of coming to her house and harming her and her children. Emily then began to track the IP of her stalkers after sending them a link to click that revealed their location, which just happened to coincide with where Shannon and Anthony lived.
By this time, Emily knew Shannon was dating Anthony and was involved in this. The next time Shannon contacted Emily, she asked her if she was involved in stalking her and told her she was going to the authorities. Shannon denied everything and tried to pass the blame on to a mutual friend of Anthony and Emily's.
After Emily and Shannon communicate, Shannon makes her own video and posts it on the Creepshow Art channel about "her stalker", named Amy. The details are suspiciously similar to what Emily is going through with Shannon and one might even suspect that Shannon made this video to deflect blame off herself in case Emily did decide to come forward with her own story around that time. Shannon claims that for the past 8.5 years, she was being stalked by a former friend who knew intimate details and had access to nude pictures of her from when she was 15 and was using them to blackmail her, but that she had talked it out recently with this supposed Amy and it's all good now.
There has never been any proof Amy exists.
All of this harassment of Emily is corroborated by an old college classmate of Shannon's.
I never thought I'd find myself related to a situation like this, but I am absolutely in the business of holding people accountable for their actions. So, I'd like to share what I know about the situation between Creepshow Art and @EmilyArtful.

Shannon has a history of harassing others. YouTuber (and literal child at the time) Hopeless Peaches found herself on the wrong end of Shannon for apparently no reason at all and Shannon didn't quit until Peaches was literally about ready to kill herself, at which time Shannon sent her an email saying "You have so much to live for."
Shannon's sibling, who was doxxed, found themselves inundated with attention because of this and privated all of their social media but did decide to open their twitter and do an AMA.
You can find links to the whole AMA here as well as links to more YouTube response videos made by Shannon's former friends and editors and old reddit comments Shannon made.
Creepshow Art has not made a comeback yet and people are very busy speculating if she will even bother considering she burned literally all her bridges. Will she swallow her pride and grovel? Or will she pull a Kelly Zahos and pivot to the libertarian/alt right community and decry cancel culture? What do you think, ONTD?
