The original teaser trailer was released on June 17, 2021.
The date is off by a year. Candyman teaser material was already released in 2020, including a teaser on February 25, 2020 and the shadow-puppet teaser on June 17, 2020.
Full reasoning
This date is incorrect because Candyman teaser footage was released in 2020, not first in 2021.
Evidence:
- ComicBook.com reported on February 26, 2020 that MGM had already released "a new teaser trailer for Candyman" after a February 25 teaser drop.
- ScreenCrush published "The New 'Candyman' Teaser Is A Work of Art In Its Own Right" on June 17, 2020, explicitly identifying it as a teaser released that day.
That means June 17 was associated with a 2020 teaser release, not a 2021 one. So saying "The original teaser trailer was released on June 17, 2021" is wrong by one year.

an 8-episode web series called Ghost Tape (2020).
Ghost Tape was a podcast/audio drama, not a web series. Official listings from QCODE and Apple Podcasts both identify it as a podcast.
Full reasoning
The medium is misstated here. Ghost Tape was released as a podcast/audio drama, not a web series.
- QCODE's official page for Ghost Tape presents it as one of its audio shows and links to listening platforms; its press items call it a "New Horror Podcast" and a "New Podcast Series."
- Apple Podcasts lists Ghost Tape as "Ghost Tape - Podcast" from QCODE and shows its episodic audio release format.
The article is correct that Nia DaCosta co-created Ghost Tape with Aron Eli Coleite, but calling it a web series is inaccurate.
