I saw a few youtube videos explaining that electricity doesn’t actually travel through wires but directly to the bulb from the battery. I understood their explanation. But now I have a doubt. Since energy flows directly to the bulb, can I shield the bulb in some way such that the circuit is complete and even then the bulb doesn’t light up?

Ignore everything you read, electrons don’t move at all. The push energy from molecule to molecule like ping pong balls in a tube, and they only travel along the surface layer of the conductor.
