The Fantastic Adventures scandal was a 2019 scandal involving the YouTube channel Fantastic Adventures, run by Machelle Hackney Hobson of Maricopa, Arizona, in the United States. This included abuse of her 7 kids, including Jordyn and Stacy Hackney. Jordyn has an online account on TikTok and Stacy or “Angel Wilfred” has a gofundme online, as she is without a home. The scandal began when one of Hobson's biological children contacted the police after witnessing her adopted siblings being systematically abused by her mother. Hobson and the channel garnered media attention, given the degree of Hobson's child abuse.
