What is the ‘what are you doing in my house’ viral TikTok trend?

TikTokers have been having fun with some hilarious audio.

There’s never a dull moment with TikTok; the app constantly has about a dozen viral trends being recreated by millions of users every day. One of the latest trends to have taken off on the app involves users sharing awkward encounters in their homes, or other situations when people and things aren’t where they’re supposed to be.

The trend features the same audio across the multitude of TikToks that follow the trend. A voice can be heard saying ‘Um excuse me what the actual **** are you doing in my house’ while normally the individual re-enacts some awkward situation.

The general gist is that the person believes that they are alone in their house, but lo and behold, they are not, with accompanying audio making it funnier. One popular example posted by user Katesteacy re-enacts the moment she walked downstairs in pajamas only to find a group of her brother’s friends there. A few funny variations of the same riff involve animals such as a horse poking their head through the window of someone’s house and group photos being ruined by someone running in front of the camera.

The audio itself is from an old video that has since been removed from YouTube. The viral video featured an animated Santa Claus asking the viewer what they were doing in his house (albeit a little less politely). The clip eventually went viral on TikTok too, and the audio has been featured in numerous skits ever since the trend began taking off.
