Santa Caught on Camera AI
Turn a photo of your room into proof that Santa stopped by. A fictional Santa arrives in the same space, with a quiet night-camera look.
Santa caught in three rooms
Each clip began as a real-looking room photo made for this page. Santa enters the same space, leaves a present or waves, and the camera keeps the original composition.
The room stays your room
The tree, furniture, windows and warm lights remain in place while Santa is added at a believable scale. The fixed camera keeps the result feeling like a home security clip, without a cut or a new angle.

How do I put Santa in my house photo?
Upload a clear photo of your room and leave visible space near the tree, fireplace or doorway. The effect places a fictional Santa in that exact scene and keeps the room layout.
Does the Santa camera video look like night vision?
It uses a fixed security-camera feel with low evening light and a little camera grain. The room stays recognizable, so it reads as a playful home clip rather than a film scene.
Can Santa leave gifts or wave?
Yes. The default actions are a short arrival, a gift by the tree and a wave toward the camera. You can adjust the prompt for a different simple action.
Can I use a photo of my real living room?
Yes. Use a room photo you own or have permission to use. The output adds a fictional Santa and does not add real people.
Does the video have sound?
No. The sample and default output are silent, so you can add your own music or keep the quiet camera feeling.
