San Diego YouTuber Corpse has released an animated video to accompany his recent collaboration with Bring Me The Horizon, on a single titled CODE MISTAKE.

The mysterious Corpse – who often goes by Corpse Husband – has built up a huge following online through music and streaming games on Twitch. He recently went on hiatus without offering an explanation and emerged to release the audio on June 30. 

He's also known for narrating horror stories, so the look and feel of this animated promo should come as no surprise to his fans.

Directed and animated by Tristan Zammit, CODE MISTAKE sees a persecuted figure which bears more than a passing resemblance to Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes. During the 2:45 minute clip, he's trapped in a number of execution scenarios, including gallows and a guillotine. As the story unfolds, it is revealed that he's a vampire.
