The video goes by a lot of names: caught at the window, window peeper, window burger meme, window stare, window watch or someone watching you eat. They are all the same trend:
At night the camera creeps up to the one lit window of an apartment block. The person inside is eating a burger, freezes mid-bite, stares straight back at the camera, then pulls the curtain shut.
On TikTok it is usually tagged #windowpeeper, and the audio is "original sound - rodentspawn".
