The McCartys Expand Their Growing Entertainment Universe, Kicking Off Halloween with a Spooky First-of-Its-Kind Interactive Event for Families!
Monkeys! Sasquatch!! And clowns! Oh my! A Spooky Special offers fans a chance to step inside the McCarty universe in a way they’ve never experienced before. Whether you’re one of their 16 million YouTube subscribers or just discovering the family for the first time, the live event promises behind-the-scenes antics, fan-favorite characters Jingle Jangle and Snappy, and exclusive sneak peeks of the McCartys’ new digital world, Camp McCarty.
This milestone marks the first original long-form special created by the McCartys outside of their massively popular social platforms—and their official entry into building a family entertainment franchise. The special takes the characters, humor, and heart that fans already love and expands them into a larger, narrative-driven universe. By blending live interaction, animation, and immersive storytelling, the McCartys are laying the foundation for a new kind of family-first entertainment brand, Camp McCarty, that extends far beyond YouTube.
“We’ve always said our community is part of our family,” said The McCartys. “This event is our way of inviting fans right into the chaos—and giving them a front-row seat to the world we’re building with them. We can’t wait to usher in Halloween together in a way that feels bigger, funnier, and spookier than anything we’ve ever done before.”
The McCartys have teamed up with top creative and production partners to deliver an unforgettable experience. Developed, created, and produced in collaboration with Wind Sun Sky Entertainment and Viral Nation, the event showcases the family-first entertainment for which the McCartys are known. “The McCartys are more than content creators, they’re cultural leaders in the family entertainment space,” said Paul Telner, Head of Programming at Viral Nation. “This special shows how they can bring fans into their world, letting them laugh, interact, and feel like part of the family.”
To bring fans closer than ever, the show is powered by Kiswe, a direct-to-consumer streaming technology and services company, enabling live participation from viewers worldwide. “At Kiswe, we believe in turning audiences into communities,” said Glenn Booth, Kiswe CEO. “A Spooky Special brings that vision to life, letting their millions of fans interact with the McCartys in real time and feel like they’re part of the family.”
Expanding their brand is central to the McCartys’ long-term vision. Their creative partners at Wind, Sun Sky Entertainment, are building out Camp McCarty, a digital world first teased in the Halloween special. “Together with the McCartys, we have created a universe that is joyful, hilarious, and deeply relatable,” said Catherine Winder, CEO of Wind Sun Sky Entertainment. “Through the character-driven world of Camp McCarty, we’ve laid a foundation to extend The McCarty Family brand in all sorts of content expressions from shorts to series, a game, an unscripted game show in development, and music.”
The special will also debut a brand-new original song from the McCartys, “The Camp McCarty theme song,” giving fans another way to experience the family’s signature mix of humor, music, and storytelling.
Beyond entertainment, A Spooky Special also has heart. A portion of the proceeds from exclusive Camp McCarty merchandise sales will be donated to charity, allowing families to contribute to a good cause while celebrating Halloween.
