24K Magic AI is a cruise-deck dance trend in which one adult photo joins a confident four-beat routine — collar tug, open-deck walk, sliding footwork, deep lunge — in the style of the "Looking Good Dracula" scene from Hotel Transylvania 3 (2018). A live-action AI remake by @theraguler went viral on TikTok on 12 October 2026 and seeded the format as a one-photo template. On ViralVideoAI it is a 10-second 9:16 vertical video from one adult portrait for 130 credits — your own likeness only, original instrumental audio, and no reproduction of the Hotel Transylvania character or Bruno Mars's 2016 recording. Failed renders refund automatically.

What is the 24K Magic Cruise Dance trend?
The 24K Magic AI dance trend is a cruise-deck solo in four readable beats: an opening collar tug on a tight close-up, a wide walk across a sunny deck with white railings and blue water, loose sliding footwork with small kicks and swinging arms, and a controlled low lunge straight into the lens. The hook is the vacation setting plus the exaggerated confidence, not any specific film character or vocal performance.
Step by step
How to make the 24K Magic Cruise Dance video on ViralVideoAI
Upload your photo, generate a new clip and review the result before sharing.
Prepare the source photo
Use one clear adult full-body or waist-up photo with the face unobstructed and clothing visible. Leave room around the legs so the generated sliding steps and final lunge read; avoid tight head crops.
Generate your video
Confirm the 130-credit price and start a new vertical render. A short opening close-up gives way to a wide deck with white railings and blue water. Sliding steps, small kicks and swinging arms build the energy as the camera holds the lead full-body on frame.
Review before posting
Check the likeness, motion and final frame. The dancer lands a deep but controlled lunge facing the camera and holds the final pose for the beat.
Which photo works best?
Source-photo checklist:
- Use one clear adult full-body or waist-up photo with the face unobstructed and clothing visible. Leave room around the legs so the generated sliding steps and final lunge read; avoid tight head crops.
- Use photos you own or have explicit permission to use. Never upload a child or a non-consenting adult.
- Review faces, hands and fine details at phone size before sharing. AI results differ from the reference clip.
Where did the 24K Magic Cruise Dance trend start?
The format echoes the "Looking Good Dracula" cruise-deck dance from Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation (2018), set to Bruno Mars's 2016 single "24K Magic". On 12 October 2026, AI creator @theraguler posted a photoreal live-action remake of the deck dance on TikTok, swapping the animated character for a styled human lead on the same deck. The clip seeded a wave of one-photo AI reinterpretations through late October and early November 2026 — cruise-deck setting, four-beat choreography — which is the template this page documents, not a reproduction of the film character or the Bruno Mars master recording.
Bruno Mars releases "24K Magic" as the lead single of the album 24K Magic.
Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation opens in theaters; the "Looking Good Dracula" cruise-deck dance becomes one of the film's most-shared moments.

How to make a stronger 24K Magic Cruise Dance edit
A recognizable opening frame, a clean subject and a deliberate payoff make the format understandable even with sound off.
- Use one clear adult full-body or waist-up photo with the face unobstructed and clothing visible. Leave room around the legs so the generated sliding steps and final lunge read; avoid tight head crops.
- Check the first frame at phone size: the subject and setting should be obvious.
- Keep captions clear of the face and the bottom interface area.

FAQ
24K Magic Cruise Dance trend questions
What is the 24K Magic Cruise Dance trend?
Tug your collar, step onto a sunny cruise deck and finish a four-beat solo dance with a low lunge. A short opening close-up gives way to a wide deck with white railings and blue water. Sliding steps, small kicks and swinging arms build the energy as the camera holds the lead full-body on frame.
Can I generate this effect on ViralVideoAI?
Yes. Upload one photo and generate a new video for 130 credits. AI results vary from the reference clip, and failed renders refund their credits automatically.
What photo works best?
Use one clear adult full-body or waist-up photo with the face unobstructed and clothing visible. Leave room around the legs so the generated sliding steps and final lunge read; avoid tight head crops.
Is this the Bruno Mars music video?
No. The trend is a cruise-deck dance inspired by the "Looking Good Dracula" scene from Hotel Transylvania 3 (2018), paired in search with Bruno Mars's 2016 single "24K Magic". ViralVideoAI generates a new scene from your own photo, not footage from any music video or film.
Will my video include the "24K Magic" audio?
No. The generated video uses original instrumental audio only. Add Bruno Mars's "24K Magic" through your posting platform's licensed music library if your version of the trend calls for it — ViralVideoAI does not distribute the song.
Does the clip reproduce Dracula from Hotel Transylvania?
No. The template produces an AI dance scene in the cruise-deck visual language of the film, not the likeness of Dracula, Mavis or any other Hotel Transylvania character. Only your own likeness is generated.
What photo input works best?
A clear adult full-body or waist-up portrait in even light, face unobstructed, with enough room around the legs for the sliding footwork and the final lunge to render convincingly. A tight head crop removes the detail the dance needs.
Can I post my own version?
Yes, subject to the rights in your photos, video and soundtrack, and the rules of your posting platform. See the disclaimer for the specific rights involved in this trend.
