What is the Hug in Heaven trend?
Hug in heaven is what people call the AI tribute clip where you run into the arms of someone who has died and hold them again above the clouds. It began as a CapCut template on TikTok around Father's Day 2026, mostly made for a mom or dad, but the moment fits anyone you miss: a grandparent, a husband or wife, a brother or sister, a best friend. This page is that one moment, the hug, made from your two photos as a 10-second vertical video with the close-up of the embrace at its heart. If it's for your mom or dad, the Mom & Dad in Heaven page makes the same hug and adds two more moments to choose from.
You run into their arms, the camera stays close on the hug, then drifts back into the sky. Pick the light that feels right: warm gold, soft and pale, or bright with flowers. A scanned print or a black-and-white photo is fine.
Your 10-second video, beat by beat
- 1Seen from behind, you climb a staircase of glowing golden steps through a sea of clouds.
- 2The person you lost waits at the very top in bright light and opens their arms to you.
- 3You reach the last step and fall into their hug.
- 4Up close, you cry with your eyes shut while they laugh, face turned up to the sky, a hand on the back of your head.
- 5With no cut, the camera drifts back until you are two small figures holding on to each other above the clouds.
What you get
You get a 10-second vertical video in 720p, an HD poster photo and a ready-to-post caption. It's silent, so you add the trending sound when you post. No app, no subscription, no watermark, and a free preview before you pay.
No green screen, no cloud effects, no video editing.

Hug in Heaven AI video FAQ
What app is used for the Hug in Heaven trend?
You don't need an app. Try a Trend makes the Hug in Heaven video in your browser from two photos, with no prompt to write. General AI video apps can do it too, but you write and tune the prompt yourself.
How do I make the Hug in Heaven video from two photos?
Upload two photos, confirm everyone pictured is 18+ and agreed, and check the free preview. If you like it, get the full video: it's ready in a few minutes. Add the trending sound when you post.

The preview is free: you see a still of yourself in the trend before paying, up to 5 a day. The full video is paid per video, with no subscription.

Each video is $7.99, and you can buy up to 5 at once at the same price each. Each video comes with an HD poster photo, a ready-to-post caption and one free redo. No subscription.
How long does it take?
Usually 3 to 6 minutes. Keep the page open and your video appears when it's ready. If a video fails, your credit goes back automatically.
What is the hug in heaven AI video?
It's a short AI tribute where you see yourself hugging someone you've lost. You climb golden stairs through the clouds, they're waiting at the top with their arms out, and you finally get to hold them. It's made from one photo of you and one of them, as a way to remember them. It is AI-made, not real footage.
Who can I make a hug in heaven video for?
Anyone you miss: a mom or dad, a grandma or grandpa, a husband, wife or partner, a brother or sister, or a close friend. Each photo should show one person with their face visible, and both of you need to be 18 or older in the photos you use.
How is this different from the Mom & Dad in Heaven video?
Both make the same golden-stairs hug from the same kind of photos, at the same price. This page is only the hug and is meant for anyone you've lost. The Mom & Dad in Heaven page is written for parents and grandparents, adds two other moments (a walk up into the light side by side, or an embrace beside a Day of the Dead ofrenda) and has a Spanish version. You'll find it under Related on this page.
Is this the official hug in heaven CapCut template?
No. This is our own version, made by Try a Trend, an independent AI tool, from your two photos. We have no connection to CapCut, TikTok or whoever made the original template.
Can I use an old, scanned or black-and-white photo of them?
Yes. Often the only photo left is a print or an old snapshot. As long as their face is clear, the AI uses that person and shows them in natural colour. Take a picture of the print straight on, in daylight so nothing reflects off it, and crop it down to just them before you upload.
Will it really look like them?
It keeps their face, hairstyle, glasses or beard and the clothes they wear in your photo, and does the same for you from yours. Check the free preview first: the clearer and closer the face, the closer the likeness.
What moods can I choose?
Heavenly glow is warm gold light and towering clouds. Soft and calm is pale, quiet light that suits a funeral or a remembrance day. Bright and warm adds sunshine and flowers for a birthday or an anniversary. The hug and the price are the same in all three.
Can I add their name or a message?
Yes, if you'd like. When you make it, open "Add words (optional)" and type their name, their years and a short line such as "Until we meet again". We set the words in an elegant font ourselves, not with AI, so names and accents come out right, and they fade in at the bottom over the last 3 seconds of the video. You'll see them on your free preview first. Leave the boxes empty and the video has no words at all.
Is it religious? Are there angels in it?
No angels, wings, halos or religious figures appear in the video, only light, clouds and the golden stairs, so it suits families of any faith or none.
Does the video include music?
No. Videos are silent so you can add a song or the trending sound directly inside TikTok or Instagram, where it is licensed.
What happens to my photos?
They are used only to make your video and are deleted automatically within 72 hours.
