Mr Nightmare is an American Youtuber specializing in videos discussing terrifying true stories. He has made 270 videos on his channel and has amassed 5.93 million subscribers.
One of the reasons why the channel has amassed such a large following is because his videos are usually short and to the point. The longest the videos on the channel go up to is 30 minutes.
This short length, alongside his catchy thumbnails and consistent schedule, has made Mr Nightmare one of the most popular horror-centered channels on the entire website.
He launched the website on August 3, 2014, and uploaded his first video a little under a year later, on February 4, 2015. The video is called 5 Creepy-Ass True Stories and has since amassed over 3 million views and 55K likes.
The most successful video the channel has released so far is one entitled “3 Creepy True School Lockdown Stories,” released on June 15, 2016. The video has over 26 Million views and 391K likes.
Out of the 270 videos posted on the channel, all but nine have reached or surpassed a million views, and most of the videos that have not reached a million are recent.

Has Mr Nightmare Done A Face Reveal?
Mr Nightmare has never done a face reveal; only his voice is known to the public.
Though the Youtuber has never stated such, fans can surmise that he likes to keep his online and personal life separate from each other.
Plus, the gimmick of his account is that Mr. Nightmare is a disembodied voice speaking from the void, letting the viewers know about all the horrible things he’s been talking about.
Though he has never done a face reveal and does not plan to anytime soon, there is one blurry photo of the Youtuber floating around the Internet.
However, the Youtuber has never confirmed the photo is his, and the picture is only thought to be his. Bits and details of his personal life have slipped out, though. A famous example is in a now-deleted video, where Mr. Nightmare talks about encountering a stranger near a trailer he occupied one summer.
Later, he discovered that his trailer had been broken into, and he was strongly suspicious of the stranger in the dark.
Another deleted video, a Q&A, stated that he had a very sick mother and had taken care of her for some time.
What Is Mr. Nightmare’s Real Name?
Mr. Nightmare’s real name is Tyler Benjamin Ventura.
He was born on May 2, 1992, and resides in New York City. As stated earlier, the man is intensely private about his personal life and does not venture to reveal it.
Besides Youtube, he has three other social media platforms. He has 82.8K followers on Twitter, 48K on Instagram, and 12.4K on TikTok.
Twitter is the most personal of the three social media apps as the Youtuber sometimes let’s slip his thoughts on his profile. However, most, if not all, of these personal thoughts are of the mundane and everyday variety.
The account is still pretty bare, and the man posts once every while, with the most recent being back in February.
His Instagram is even barer as he only has 15 posts, most of which are clips or stills from his Youtube videos. Lastly, his TikTok is the barest of them all, as there are no videos on it.
His penchant for privacy has also seeped into his content, as the Youtuber has deleted much of his earlier content, which consisted of creepypastas and other fictionalized stories.
As he does not make such kinds of videos anymore, he has deleted or privatized them, but some of them have been re-uploaded by other Youtubers.
How Much Is Mr. Nightmare’s Net Worth?
Mr. Nightmare has a net worth estimated to be $3 million as of 2022 through his various Youtube videos.
As mentioned earlier, the Youtuber has had almost all but nine videos hit one million or passed it on his channel.
Through AdSense alone, he is making a pretty penny, and with the number of loyal followers, Mr. Nightmare was also very popular on Patreon before he deleted it.
As it stands, currently, the main income of the channel is through views and AdSense. Lucky for Mr Nightmare, he makes videos that encourage repeat viewings.
Another big part of his success is that the Youtuber encourages fan participation. He allows viewers and fans to submit horror stories to be read aloud and uploaded onto his channel.
Through this collaborative nature, Mr. Nightmare kills two birds with one stone. He makes his work a bit easier, especially the research part, and also gives people a reason to watch his videos, i.e., to check if their story has been chosen to be read aloud.
