About the channel
Faceless stories, one lantern
The Copper Lantern is a YouTube channel of stick-figure survival stories. No face on camera: just a small white-headed figure in a green hoodie, walking through zombie outbreaks, shipwrecks and quieter disasters.
A new story goes up as often as production allows. The videos are grouped into a few series, so you can pick the kind of night you want.
