Production

Development

In October 2015, YouTube announced YouTube Red, a paid subscription service that would allow streaming videos ad-free, downloading videos for offline usage, and present new exclusive original series for YouTube Red subscribers.[8][9] At the time of announcement, ten various series were announced for 2016, including the Untitled Joey Graceffa project,[10][11] which was set to be produced by Brian Graden Media.[3] The series began filming near Valencia, California.[5]

On June 15, 2016, Graceffa released the trailer for his original series entitled Escape the Night,[12] which was set and released on June 22, 2016 with two episodes going live.[13] When interviewed after production, Graceffa commented that the idea behind Escape the Night was inspired by an episode themed around murder mystery appearing on television show Lizzie McGuire,[14] and closely related to the 1985 film Clue.[5] Furthermore, Graceffa shared his experience with filming the series, expressing "It was a really fun concept to put together," additionally mentioning, "And it was an idea that started small and ended up into something much bigger."[3]

On October 17, 2016, it was announced by Susanne Daniels, global head of content for YouTube, at MIPCOM that Escape the Night would be renewed for a second season.[15] Later on May 25, 2017, Joey Graceffa via Twitter announced the cast of the second season and scheduled debut of the second season to be on June 22, 2017.[16][17]
