Early Life
Born Isaiah Mark Nichols on June 2, 1999, in Kentucky, U.S., Wendigoon is now 25 years old – his zodiac sign is Gemini. His family name or last name is ‘Nichols’ and his full name is Isaiah Mark Nichols but he is also known by the name ‘Isaiah Markin.’
A Reddit thread is now postulating that his father’s name is either Joshua or Charles, but well, you take that with a pinch of salt. Anyway, in a June 2022 interview he granted Tube Filter, he hinted that he grew up in “the curl of the Appalachian Mountains that stretches along the eastern edge of Tennessee…”
Furthermore, he revealed that his grandfather used to ‘tell him stories about the wendigoon — a cannibalistic creature of Native American and First Nations myth — and other dwellers of the deep woods,’ hence, his fall in love with the stories and the name. Well, that’s how his name ‘Wendigoon’ and his love for horror stories came about.
Education
Isaiah Markin, now 25 years old, obtained his elementary school and high school education at local schools in Kentucky. After graduating from high school, he wanted to become a doctor, so he enrolled for a pre-med biology degree.
However, three years into the program, he dropped out of college to focus on creating content for YouTube as a day job. And “finding it wasn’t quite as good a fit as he’d expected — when he ‘just decided,’ he says, that he was going to take a crack at starting his own channel,” a source reported.
Wendigoon was raised in his hometown; a small town in Kentucky, where he was born. He is a Kentucky native and so has American citizenship by birth. His family (from his grandfather’s side) belongs to the Cherokee ethnic group, so he is of Cherokee descent.
Personal Life
Isaiah Markin is married to his long-term girlfriend, Kayla Garret. They started dating in 2018 and in February 2023, he announced their engagement proposal. From sources across the web, Wendigoon and his now-wife, Kayla Garret, got married in October 2023.
Confirming the rumors about his wedding and marriage with his wife, he took to Twitter on October 10, 2023, and posted; “My wedding and honeymoon were far greater than I deserve. I wouldn’t be able to afford the time or elegance without you all allowing me the luxuries I have. Thank you for your support, it means more than I can ever say. 💜”

Religion Views
When it comes to his religious affiliation, many netizens often argue that he took them by surprise, esp., since he was creating content around horror and spooky stories. But, well, that’s just because of his childhood upbringing.
Isaiah Markin has, on several occasions, been called out and canceled by many left-wingers, with many accusing him of harboring extreme right-wing beliefs. But, Isaiah, in a December 6, 2023, tweet, was quoted as saying that he is “not right-wing or bigoted or anything besides thankful for my opportunity to make goofy YouTube.”
“The only thing I believe in is loving God and my wife,” he concluded. But that didn’t do much, because… well, people who have gone through ‘religious trauma’ often call him out and cancel him for his religious views, especially because he is a lil bit ‘loud’ about those views.
Wendigoon, as a matter of fact, has two series on his channel centered around religion/Christianity and his preaching of the gospel. One of the series is “Sunday Studies,” and the other is “Biblical Fanfiction.
That’s not all about controversy. He has also been called out for ‘transphobia.’ Well, he previously called out a ‘transwoman’ for hiding under the guess of transgenderism to commit hideous crimes; a Reddit thread had users saying all they know about the transphobia controversy.
Apology
Isaiah has always been unapologetic about his religious views and so has never had a reason to apologize. However, one of his fans who looked up to him was concerned that he may have dropped an apology video due to pressure and backlash, so he made a post on Reddit asking to know if the apology video was fake or real.
Well, yes, the ‘apology video’ was fake. But, Isaiah did, in fact, apologize but not because of his religious views. It was, however, a cut-and-join video pulled out from his ‘A slow descent into depression w/ Faith’ on November 29, 2022, live video, where he apologized, at around 4:01:17 minute of the video for unaliving 8 children in his games. Well, he unalived 8 kids but that was clearly in a video game. But, tell you what, it raised a controversy, anyway.
Net Worth
Wendigoon’s net worth is estimated to be $2.2 million, his annual salary, $700k thousand, and his monthly salary, over 80k thousand, as per our team’s estimation after considering his fortune/stake and YouTube stats.
That’s it on his Wiki profile rundown. Now that you’re still here, you may as well catch up with his fellow American horror YouTube creator, Markiplier. Mark has over 36 million subscribers and over 20 billion content views.
