What is the Santa in Your House trend?

Santa in Your House is the pet version of Santa caught on camera, a Christmas video format on TikTok and YouTube Shorts: grainy night footage from a home security or doorbell camera that seems to catch Santa Claus at someone's house. The best-known AI version, posted on Christmas Day 2024, is a creepy CCTV clip of Santa creeping up a front walk to the camera, and by Christmas 2025 parents were making friendly ones to show their kids. In our Santa in Your House video, Santa tiptoes up your front walk at midnight, stops to give your dog or cat a present, then smiles and winks straight into the camera.

Show the kids on Christmas morning, or add a Christmas song when you post.

Santa in Your House AI video FAQ

What app is used for the Santa in Your House trend?

You don't need an app. Try a Trend makes the Santa in Your House video in your browser from one photo of your pet, 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 Santa in Your House video from one photo of my pet?

Upload one photo of your pet 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.

Is there a free Santa in Your House AI generator?

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

How much does the Santa in Your House video cost?

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.

Is this an official Santa video or app?

No. Try a Trend is an independent AI tool that makes its own Santa caught on camera video from your pet's photo. We're not affiliated with any Santa video app or website, any doorbell or security camera brand, TikTok or CapCut. Santa in the video is an AI-made character.

Can I make a Santa caught on camera video with my dog or cat?

Yes, that's exactly what this one is. You upload one clear photo of your dog, cat or other pet, and Santa is caught on your home security camera at night stopping to give them a present. You don't need a photo of your house: the front walk and the camera look are made by the AI.

Is it scary like the CCTV Santa videos?

No. The camera angle and the night look are the same as the viral clips, but our Santa is jolly: he tiptoes up the walk, stops to give your pet a present and a scratch behind the ears, and winks at the camera before he goes.

Will it look like my pet?

The AI keeps your pet's breed, coat colours and markings from your photo, and your pet sits close to the camera so you can see its face. A clear, well-lit photo with the face visible works best.

Can I use a photo of my own house or my kids?

No. The video uses one photo of your pet; the front walk, the street lamp and the house are made by the AI to look like a home security camera at night. Photos of people aren't accepted on this page.

Can I show it to my kids?

Yes. Many parents play it on Christmas morning as part of the Santa magic, next to the cookie crumbs and the empty glass of milk. It's an AI-made video, so you decide how you share it.

Does it work with cats?

Yes. Dogs, cats, rabbits and other pets all work, as long as the photo shows one animal with its face visible.

Which photos can I use?

Only photos of your own pet, or photos you have permission to use. Pick a clear photo of one animal with its face visible and no people in it.

Does the video include music?

No. Videos are silent so you can add a Christmas song or the trending sound directly inside TikTok or Instagram, where it is licensed.

What happens to my photo?

It is used only to make your video and is deleted automatically within 72 hours.
