Meet Horace: TikTok's Creepiest Little Dancing Guy

Horace is an effect on TikTok that features a onesie-wearing bald person dancing. It's unclear whether Horace is a tiny older man or a giant baby, but whatever he is, he is, first and foremost, creepy.  The effect seamlessly allows Horace to dance with the person filming the video.  He got banned from Instagram for nudity in 2020 but has since reemerged on TikTok with his signature red onesie, first launching on the platform in April of 2022. This week, he blew up on TikTok with various creators dancing with him. 

Some Horace fans have claimed him as their boyfriend, sharing cute couple moments and devastating breakups. 

Others likened Horace to creepy guys that they've danced with at nightclubs. 

The nurses of #horacetok compared him to past patients. 

Many of Horace's duet partners were amazed and horrified by his ability to keep on the beat while dancing to his signature song, Feel No Ways by Drake. 

Love him or hate him, Horace is a fascinating figure. Only on TikTok could such an unfortunate little man be so celebrated for everything he is. Horace is a baby. Horace is a man. Horace is a freak. Horace is you. Horace is me.
