How This Art Student Became The Weirdest, Funniest Guy On TikTok

Ghosthoney, aka Tyler Gaca, makes charmingly offbeat TikToks. Can he turn his brand of “gentle chaos” into a lifelong career?

Tyler Gaca’s apartment feels like something a sorcerer conjured onto an Angeleno Heights hilltop. It’s a blazingly hot day in August, but inside, every wall is a stacked series of mossy terrariums, one of which holds a frog named Sweetpea, or else feathered with the leaves of potted plants. A Chihuahua mix named Penny noses at a velvet skull on the coffee table; Salem, a black cat, is reportedly hiding under the bed. Gaca offers me seltzer — Beach Plum LaCroix, to be more specific.

“One of my proudest accomplishments is that I’m on the PR list for LaCroix,” he says, laughing. “That’s what I told my mom, like, ‘You’re not gonna believe this!’”
