Each frame revealed gross, mold-covered items. First, a bed covered in brown grime is shown, then storage furniture, a beauty sponge, a sink and leather jacket — all covered in mold — flashed on the screen.
“When they forgot to mention the apartment comes with complimentary mold,” text overlaid on the video said.
In the comments section, many were horrified and wondered how the apartment ended up in such a state. They also wondered why anyone would be in the contaminated home.
“How is this even possible?” user Georgia Theo (@georgia0234) wrote.
“I need the backstory on this [right now] because omg,” viewer Kelsey Nicole (@kelseynicole222) said.
One user assumed Anna and the other person in the video were being paid to clean up the place.
“My guess is she’s a biohazard cleaner and someone died otherwise I’m scared,” user Emily Tanesha (

Anna’s TikTok typically features playful videos about her family and friends and also food reviews. So the gross content came as a surprise. Nonetheless, it appears her clips about the mold crisis in that apartment appears to be the most popular.
The Daily Dot reached out to Anna via TikTok comment for more information. We will update this story should she respond.
