PUT A SMILE ON. In 2023, Grimace became a horror phenomenon thanks to the disturbing reactions on Tik-Tok to the Grimace Birthday Shake. But I've always found Grimace, and the McDonald's lore as a whole, to stem from a creepy place. From urban legends about the mascot to McDonald's creepypastas to other disturbing details, the Grimace Birthday Shake incident was the first time things got weird in McDonaldland.
Grimace was originally a villain known as The Evil Grimace who stole shakes and drinks from children, and as we comb over his history, more and more unsettling details come out.
In this video I'll be analyzing the entire history of Grimace, from his twisted origins, to his mysterious actions over the years, to his disappearance, and finally his sudden reappearance and rampage as a Tik-Tok horror icon.
To learn all the mysteries of Grimace's past like "what is a Grimace" or "what's really in the Grimace shake", stick around to the end of this video.

I never thought we’d have a grimace lore video
And it's not even April fools day.
me too lol
Me too lmao
Same
That's the entirely of Rogue Internet Man's career tho.
Grimace's body count explained why he has "grim" in his name for a reason. His milkshake not only bring all boys to the yard, he brought everybody in the yard.
Yeah, the heckin graveyard.
@@acolossalsquidyeah maybe that's why McDonald's stop selling Grimace milkshake anymore probably it's because of Tik-Tok
I love you!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
I thought a majority of the purple shake came from the fat kids who were turned purple at Willy Wonka's chocolate factory.
@@josephwilles29 Lol, poor Violet.
I was a costumed performer for Grimace in the late 80s/early 90s. They literally had air fresheners taped to the inside of the costume, and it smelled of grapes & razzberry. I’m thoroughly convinced that is what the Grimace shake is supposed to taste like - his insides.
That's some VHS analog horror shit right there
Okay now I need a horror history on all these famous creepy mascots now. 😮
YES!
I concur.
He has just opened a can of worms.

I have a theory on why Grimace used to have four arms: Grimaces reproduce by mitosis. So that was actually him mid-separation with his offspring, or his progenitor in mid-separation with him. Indeed, every new from of Grimace we see might actually be a different Grimace, their numbers multiplying as they spread across the world tasting everything they touch, in preparation for the Great Consuming that is to come.
Well that explains why so many people are being killed in a short period of time.
Your theory regarding these unfathomable abominations that must be eliminated holds water.
That would explain why no other Grimaces seem to have four arms. And grimaces reproducing by mitosis is somehow less disturbing than the alternative. He does seem to have two parents, but maybe some Grimaces in recent years have decided to practice marriage, possibly learning about it on pilgrimages.
The most haunting character you’ve ever covered.
Holy crap Lois it’s *the Zeepster*
This and the Chuck E. Cheese backstory are brilliant, incredible satire 😂
I like how it is not fan fiction
@@Selena-gz9tsI’m pretty sure every sane person doesn’t want it fanfic
@@kuzcosmkswed117what? You don’t want a FNAF-esque fanfic?
@@E-0921fuck no
@@Selena-gz9tsHow Can It Be "Fiction" of It's 'Truth?'
This is the real “horror” in horror history.
Wait! People got sick from the shake?
@@sapphirejade5029NO, it's a joke about the shake
@jaxonwhitaker4441 oh~ Okay. I didn’t think it as a joke and thought there was some sort of food poisoning.
@@sapphirejade5029ppl make the trend so realistic at the point where we think it's real, so I get it
@@TMNT_Luver222 yeah~ Not cool, in my perspective. Again, I keep thinking it's food poisoning. I recently went to a McDonald's and got a bit scared when seeing the shake as an item on the menu. Again, I didn’t know if it was food poisoning.
The fact you did a horror history on Grimace is off the charts. Love it. Great job!
This feels like an April fools joke and tbh.... I love it! The serious tone is just a cherry on top of this amazing McDonald's sundae lol
A sundae of death
Finally, I was bummed because we did not have an April Fools video. Now I am finally happy.
i love these fast food/pop culture "horror" icon episodes so much. they're so hilariously entertaining and well-put together!
My sister is going to be grimace for Halloween.
I'm not kidding, she actually made that choice. We like to get a healthy start on Halloween costumes.
That’s so hella cool 😆👻
How did it go
So many lives taken in so little time. Hopefully the future generations know to celebrate his birthday without the grimace shake......for the brand new grimace burger. One bite and you'll love it
(Shows me on ground bleeding purple)
Grimace dont actually kill ya just so y'all know -_-
Yea I had a grimace shake a month ago and I’m fine.
@@sidscreamI it's a joke
@@geomania8533 it's a joke
Something is so interesting about him talking about McDonald’s mascots as real people.
Mayor McCheese having to step down for lawsuits.
I’m down for this. And no wonder there’s so many horror games set during this time period. It’s amazing EVERY kid didn’t have nightmares.
How much you wanna bet Grimace is gonna actually get his own horror movie
So ex husband's dad was a District Manager for McDonald's, and I have one of the original evil Grimace cookies with 4 arms. Lol. Never thought I'd see something like this!
How are you? Sorry about the divorce. :(
Too bad he didn’t have it for a prop lol
@dsalmeron I wish I could post a picture of it. Talk about having a weird little keepsake. What's even funnier is when I've mentioned it in the past, no one believes that Grimace had 4 arms and was evil. Lol.
@@addywilcox7753 Maybe they will now.
I've never thought you would do a timeline about a character from a fast food chain😂
Chuck E. Cheese?
@@dubuyajay9964 Yeah that too 😂
“McDonald’s land is sort of a *preserve* where fast food items can be found growing”
This line is great
The timeline that Grimace deserved. Happy Belated Birthday Grimace.
I always thought Grimace was rather adorable. And thank you for reminding me of all the past great McDonald characters.
As do I. I've always found the odd characters or the "creepy" characters adorable, like golem/smeagol
Hell ya I am so here for this ! . I never got to try one of those shakes but I still want to . I never paid much attention to the lore of this restaurant till now haha
it taste like fruity pebbles it’s pretty good
Oh my gosh, we’re getting Grimace lore and I am so here for it 🤣
Grimace was a child's nightmare back in the 80s and nothing has changed. Neat. 😀👍
I was more scared of ugly pre-reboot Hamburglar than Grimace.
I knew you wouldn’t fail us CZ you’re the king of horror
I've been waiting for grimace lore, thank you sir CZ.
As a kid, we had this VHS tape where Ronald and all the mascots went to Grimace Island. Grimace was always my favorite, but now I'm not so sure....
And now CZ is talking about this video! Now I know it wasn't just some childhood fever dream 😂
"You're standing in a huddle of grimaces... it's not such a far-fetched story, is it?"
I'm sorry but that killed me. And why did I think Grimace was nice and so snuggly?! Thank you so much for this video. I never knew I needed a Grimace lore video but this was so well done and interesting.
Till this day and my cousin can't stop laughing at the chuck e cheese lore! Masterpiece
finally, some real horror lore
Hey bucko! I LOVED the pun there at time stamp 0:53, where you stated how grimace is also linked to the adjective to show great repulsement, great video! Keep up the good work!
The video I didn't know I needed. CZ is a legend
My favorite part of the show was when Grimace said, "It's Grimace time!" and grimed all over the place
the amount of research and time these videos must take is crazy considering how fast you release them. thank you for the hard work!!!
I love it! Perfectly executed as always! Thanks CZ
Another great video Thanks CZsWorld
The video we never knew we needed
I had heard that Grimace was the embodiment of brainfreeze. Hence, the grimace of pain when you get brainfreeze
Information I never thought I’d know 😂 love this channel
Top notch and informative as always 😂
Never in one million year would I ever think a silly internet joke would somehow get it's own horror history
Too much evil to be contained
I’ve been binging this dude’s videos, and all the prolonged eye contact is starting to make me weak in the knees
In a gay way
I see CZ videos and LIKE immediatley so I do not forget. I never had to undo it!
They have a bipedal bird all they need is a bipedal rabbit and bear
I had no idea where you were going at first, but this was a great video!
If you're right, grimace is gross!
5:10 Winkys was another fast food chain back in the day that I remember as a little kid.
Love this!! You did not let us down!!
Grimace is a single drop of pure adrenochrome.
Lowkey they should make grimace horror movie
Omg, this video had me rolling in laughter. Bravo and subscribed!
Love your videos
Dang, who would have thought the last CSzWorld video would have been a Grimace lore video! What time line are we even in..!
Love that this is getting a horrir history. Grimace killed my childhood hero kevin chamberlain. *in Jesse pinkmans voice
HE CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS!
This is literally amazing
All this time I thought Ol' Grimace was a just goofy good guy pretending to be bad😂
This is so random and I love it.
This video is crazy. I love it.
Very well done ✅🎉 wonderful job on this keep up the amazing work
CZ great job on this! I wasn't ever scared of him the hamburgler seemed more creepy to me. So I don't really eat there but I really wanted to get a shake as my birthday was in June too but I totally forgot 😭. But hey I hope everyone who drunk one grimmest with joy 💜
Finally, the content ive been waiting for
Love your vids
This gave a good chuckle.
I never thought i would need a video about Grimace till now!!!
Thank you for the grimace lore CZ !!!!!
Ohh this is an interesting lore ALL in for this!!
Bravo. This was really good.
I needed this❤❤
Help this is such a legit documentary of Grimace 😭😭😭
I love this! Plz do more!!
The video I never knew I needed
About a month before tje Grimance shake became a thing I got a new/ used car a Honda Fit...my sister in law named it Grimace because of its deep purple colour. Now I love the name even more. I always saw him of McDonald's Cookie Monster.
Always wondered bout him thanks for researching.
This was very well done. 😂 💜 Thank you
can i just say that i am a long time grimace fan so when i saw the birthday meal and stuff, as well as when they had the grimace for the adult happy meals (which i never got :(((((, i got so excited. so like seeing this video now, like ty! ive been telling all my coworkers grimace trivia bc i had watched the grimace island movie. so nowi can just link this to ppl! and i feel less like a dork lol
LOL! You are a legend! XD Thank you for this!
Nice lore video
Thanks Dude , I never knew I needed this video, till you uploaded it. Now I can die peacefully.
I remember watching this animated video called "Search For Grimace Island," and back then found it funny. Probably not now but back then after seeing that video I honestly didn't know how anyone could find him scary.
The way you had it ending, reminded me of the movie "The Stuff" (1985), where mysterious goo that oozes from the earth is marketed as the newest dessert sensation. If possible, this movie could make a good video is some way, just a suggestion.
I think a cool idea you could talk about next is the movies or stories that are inspired by the HP Lovecraft mythos. They are soooo fascinating to me.
I remember receiving the legend of grimace Island on VHS when I went to McDonald's all those years ago and that was the only day I ever received. Time flies
I was waiting for this lol
We love you CZ !!!
OMG i remember that grimace island episode! it creeped me out as a kid and i loooved it
This is a masterpiece
Surprising video man
Never thought we needed this til now 🎉👏🏾
Please do all mascots 😊
Very imaginative creators superb content
Wow, flashbacks!!! I totally remember the old playgrounds at McDonald's. Well, bits and pieces anyway... it's been 40-some years! But I do remember the fiberglass tree sculpture, and the Grimace cage. I think Mayor McCheese had like a tube body with a ladder inside, where you could climb up into his head that was like a UFO shaped roundabout cage kinda thing. And I do remember Ronald and the Hamburglar, but I can't remember if they we're playground items, or just fiberglass statues like the tree. Total blast from the past, lol! I think those playgrounds were removed when the whole Mayor McCheese lawsuit happened, and were eventually replaced with the plastic tube playgrounds. Anyway, thanks for the video!!!
Dude didnt expect it but ots amazing ❤❤
Thank you I was wondering what was happening with the shake.
I really like the horror history, can you make one of David Drayton from The Mist?
Cool lore video.
I dont know why this is just so captivating to me
Did I hear Chills in a CZSWORLD's Grimace video? Sweet!
Had to wait til after credits! Who knew there was so much history!
Never thought I’d see this
I remember having one of these VHS tapes as a kid...for some reason I watched it on a repeat
OMG, I love you for this! ❤😂😂😂 Now I want one for that Burger King guy! LoL
