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?

That video is deliberately misleading for clicks. While it’s true that you can describe the overall power flow directly from the source to the load in terms of a vector, it does *not* mean that the energy travels that direct path.
