What Is the My Ride Is Here Trend? TikTok Witch Broom Meme (2026)

"My Ride Is Here" is a Halloween 2026 short-video trend in which a clip filmed from inside a car shows a person riding a witch's broomstick just outside the side window, keeping pace with the traffic, under the caption "my ride is here". The clips are AI-generated from a single photo, and the trend spread on TikTok from the last week of September 2026, about five weeks before Halloween on October 31.

What the videos look like

Almost every version uses the same shot, which is why the trend is easy to recognise in a feed:

• The camera is inside a car. It looks like a phone held by a passenger and pointed at the side window.
• The rider is outside, on a broom. They sit on a witch's broomstick level with the window. In some versions the car is moving and the rider keeps pace; in others the car waits at a red light and the rider floats over the crosswalk.
• The rider reacts. They glance into the car, smile or wave, then fly off ahead, as if commuting by broom were completely normal.

The joke lands best when the rider is someone who would never sit on a broom for real, wearing everyday clothes rather than a full witch costume. A close variant, sometimes called the "witch broom crash", ends with the rider flying into a road sign instead of flying away.

What "my ride is here" means

The caption is the punchline. "My ride is here" is what you say when your taxi or a friend's car pulls up. In these videos the car is only where the camera sits; the actual ride is a witch's broom. It is the old Halloween idea that a witch's broom is her ride, turned into a short gag that anyone can star in.

When it started and how big it is

Neither TikTok nor CapCut has published official numbers for this trend, and we could not check TikTok's own counts directly, so the figures below are snapshots from the public guides that tracked it:

• As of October 22, 2026, the most specific public timeline comes from east.im's broom trend guide (published October 21, 2026). It reports that the earliest "My Ride Is Here" post it could find on TikTok is from September 29, 2026, and that this post links to a CapCut template called "Real-life H. Potter", created on September 23, 2026. The same guide says that by October 21, 2026 the template had been used more than 166,000 times.
• videosi.io's guide (published October 18, 2026) reports that tutorials for the trend began appearing on TikTok in the last week of September 2026 and that by mid-October it was among TikTok's trending topics.
• Who made the first video is not confirmed. videosi.io says so, east.im names only the earliest post it found, and we could not verify a creator either.

Template counts change every day, so treat any number you see, including these, as a point in time.

Why it spread

• One photo is enough. Nobody owns footage of themselves on a broom. AI templates and apps build the whole shot from a selfie, so anyone can join in.
• The timing. It arrived in the run-up to Halloween, when people are already looking for costume and witch content.
• It is easy to read. The car window, the broom and the caption explain the joke in under a second, even with the sound off.
• Tutorials. Many posts are "how to make this" videos that point to a template, which keeps new versions coming.

Is it real footage?

No. The viral clips are made with AI video tools and AI templates. Nobody is actually riding a broom next to a car, and you should not try to film it for real.
