“She heard scratching in the ceiling—then saw this” 🦝📹 One woman’s curious hunch turned into a viral saga when she discovered an unexpected roommate living above her apartment. What happened next had millions glued to their screens. See the footage and the surprise twist in the article below 👇
One young woman couldn’t shake the feeling that something strange was happening just above her head. For months, she kept hearing mysterious noises coming from the ceiling of her apartment. And when her landlord ignored her repeated requests to check it out, she decided to take matters into her own hands.
Casey Zack, a TikTok user, grabbed her phone, made a small hole in the ceiling, and slipped the camera inside. What the video revealed was totally unexpected—a raccoon was living right above her, and it had apparently made itself quite at home.
Casey shared the footage on TikTok, and the internet went wild. The video racked up nearly 9.5 million views. People were fascinated by the furry intruder, who turned out to be incredibly energetic and, surprisingly, pretty adorable.
But just when the internet had fallen in love with the little guy, things took a darker turn. Casey posted a follow-up saying a strange smell had begun coming from the ceiling. Fearing the worst, she assumed the raccoon had died. Fans of the story were heartbroken—and so was she. Even though the scratching had stopped, her face in the video said it all.

Then came the plot twist no one expected.
A few days later, Casey updated her followers again—this time with great news. The raccoon was still alive! Whatever had caused the odor wasn’t the animal after all. Apparently, the raccoon had simply stepped out for a bit and eventually returned to its cozy spot above her apartment. The noises resumed, and instead of being annoyed, Casey was thrilled to know her unexpected roommate was okay.
Viewers flooded the comments with name suggestions for the raccoon, jokes about his dramatic “comeback,” and even ideas about keeping him as a pet. What started as a mystery turned into a heartwarming—and slightly chaotic—story that captured millions of hearts online.
