The Hype House was a collective of teenage TikTok personalities based in California, United States as well as the name of the mansion in which some of the creators live. It was a collaborative content-creation house, allowing the different influencers and content creators to make videos together easily.
The former house in Moorpark was a Spanish-style mansion perched at the top of a gated street. It has a palatial backyard, a pool, an outdoor gym, a whirlpool spa, and a large kitchen and dining quarters. The Hype House location has changed twice; the collaborative originally used a series of two different houses in Los Angeles proper before moving to its final location in Moorpark before it was sold away in August 2024. The membership of the collaborative has also evolved over time.
The last active members before it was dissolved include Thomas Petrou and Mia Hayward.
History
The collective formed in December 2019 and includes around twenty rising or established Gen Z influencers from TikTok. Most of its funding for creation came from Daisy Keech, Chase Hudson, Thomas Petrou, Alex Warren, Dixie D'Amelio, and Addison Rae. Its membership peaked at twenty-one members before cofounder Daisy Keech, citing internal disputes with other members as the reason for her departure, quit in March 2020. In May 2020, the D'Amelios' representative confirmed the sisters also left the collective when "The Hype House started to become more of a business." Darianka Sanchez was about to join the Hype House, but accusations of hacking and bullying—including claims of bullying Kenzie Ziegler—surfaced. The Hype House issued a statement denying her membership. Larray, who was already an established YouTuber and TikTok personality, joined in January 2020 but confirmed in his livestream that he had left later that year. Russian model Renata Valliulina (also known as Renata Ri) joined the House in December of that year.
After being interviewed by Thomas Petrou, leader of the House, content creator Tabitha Swatosh became a Hype House member on January 28, 2022. Sam Dezz and Brooke Monk joined the House on of April 1, 2022. Paige Taylor officially became a member on May 14, 2022, but she left in October. Throughout May 2022, the Hype House frequently collaborated with Breezy Boys LA, another content house, to create videos. Then, on June 3, 2022, all the previous Breezy Boy members (Ace Akers, Bryce Parker, Eddie Preciado, Jacob Day, Jackson Dean, and Kristian Ramey) became official Hype House members. All but Jacob Day had left the House by October that year. On April 6, 2023, Petrou announced that he would be selling the mansion but that Hype House would be continuing in some form.
Reality series
On April 22, 2021, Netflix announced that they would be airing a reality series at The Hype House, starring Annon, Dragun, Hacker, Hayward, Hudson, Merritt, Petrou, Warren, and Wright. Hype House premiered on Netflix on January 7, 2022.
Controversies
On July 21, 2020, Nikita Dragun held a surprise birthday party for Larray during the COVID-19 pandemic at the Hype House mansion. The party included internet celebrities such as James Charles and others. At the time of the party, California's COVID-19 cases had just surpassed New York's cases. There was an estimated 67 people in attendance, many of whom were seen without face masks despite local health laws. Photos and videos of the event appeared on social media sites such as Instagram. These posts drew criticism from the public, including other influencers like Elijah Daniel and Tyler Oakley. Merritt, and some of the other attendees of the party later apologized. Residents of The Hype House later tested negative for COVID-19.
Lawsuit
On January 24, 2023, the landlord announced he would be suing the Hype House for $300,000, due to unpaid rent and severe damage to the house.
