Angela Holm's hotel bedtime comes with too many light switches
Her room-darkening comedy sketch is gathering views more than eight times faster than its usual daily pace.
Why this story? The video is running at 1,461,991 views a day, 8.6 times its usual pace (169,780).
Why are there so many LIGHTSSS 💡 #hotelstay #familytravel #momof5 #baby #familyof7
Angela Holm switches off the bedside lighting, but that barely gets the job started. There are desk lamps, floor lamps, ceiling lights and illuminated bathroom mirrors still to deal with, all while she carries her baby through the hotel room.
The comedy Short turns a simple bedtime task into an increasingly elaborate search. Its title asks, "Why are there so many LIGHTSSS 💡 #hotelstay #familytravel #momof5 #baby #familyof7". No spoken dialogue is needed: the room gets darker in stages, and exaggerated scream effects punctuate the discovery of yet more lighting.
Posted a week ago, the video added roughly 1.5 million views in a day, bringing it to about 2.7 million. This is a later burst of attention, rather than just a fast opening day.
Viewers are picking up on the gradual dimming and joking that Angela has inadvertently given them a suite tour. Others ask why there isn't a central control panel, or suggest that hotels need a single dark-mode switch. Several bring their own memories of switching off one lamp only to activate another.
Bedtime also features in Angela's newest upload, this time back at home as a mother of five. In the hotel sketch, though, the routine becomes a room-by-room inventory of everything that glows.

genuine question: do your hotel rooms not have like a light control panel where you can turn off lights in specific rooms or areas?
@justme.itsukiSee it on YouTubeSo real! 😂 That is basically every night in a hotel. And figuring out which switch turns off which lamp, ends up in a random lamp turning on unexpectantly 😂
@Sapphire04See it on YouTubeI love how you just keep on discovering new lights after you turn them off😂
@MayaDelancy-r2bSee it on YouTubeI always limit myself to turning on just two lights at hotel rooms it’s usually the bathroom light and the lamp by the bed
@greenhorizon90See it on YouTubeThat's more lights than in any hotel room I've ever been to!
@lorielarner9788See it on YouTubeI don’t even have a baby and I found this relatable
