Candace Owens has expanded her investigation and accusations against Erika Kirk.
In a new YouTube and social media video, Owens announced her series against Kirk, called “Bride of Charlie,” a clear spin-off of films like “Bride of Chucky” and “Bride of Frankenstein.”
The video follows clips of Charlie’s murder, and positive and negative media attention centered on Erika after his passing, all of which is framed to question whether Erika or Turning Point USA had any motives in the matter.
Since the posting of this, Owens has faced backlash on social media, with many calling the video “evil” and “demonic.”

Thought I’d chime in (although it’s obvious), this is demonic. Mean high school girl tactics taken to the next level. TikTok is rife with millennial mothers gleefully enjoying this, it’s so embarrassing to be female sometimes. I swear we’re not all that dumb.

Pastor Greg Locke also chimed in on the conversation, writing:
This is what happens when bitterness is all you drink. I’ve warned and warned but people refuse to listen….
@RealCandaceO is an extremely evil person. She is bent on destruction. I don’t care what you think about @MrsErikaKirk, this is OUT OF BOUNDS.

Eric Metaxas also commented, asking, “Could Candace Owens be more despicable? It’s a rhetorical question.”

Political commentator Gunther Eagleman called for people to pray for the safety and protection of Erika Kirk and her family at this time.
Pray for Erika Kirk and her children to have Gods hedge of protection as EVIL continues to attack them.

As believers, we must remember that Scripture is clear: “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress” (James 1:27).
The heart of Christ is not to publicly tear down the grieving, but to protect, comfort and defend those in vulnerable places. Whatever disagreements may exist, Christians are never called to devour one another or weaponize platforms for destruction. We are commanded to “encourage one another and build each other up” (1 Thess. 5:11).
In moments like these, the church must choose compassion over cruelty, prayer over provocation and unity over division—reflecting the character of the Savior we claim to follow.
