| The '''Hype House Arc''' (also referred to as the '''Hype House Saga''' and mistaken as the '''First Housing Arc''') was a pivotal arc and the final chapter of the [[Classic Era]] in the [[Daniel Larson]] story. During this arc, he was placed in a group home with his most notable [[Case Managers|case manager]], [[Jonas]], who Daniel despised due to perceived "abuse," his wife Miranda, and a housemate named [[Gavin]]. Daniel moved into this home on approximately July 10, 2021, occupying the [[pink room]] which he destroyed the following month. Despite this, he remained in the house until he eventually fled it on December 1. He then moved into an assisted living apartment before getting kicked out on January 9, 2022, marking the beginning of the [[Homeless Era]].

In the first two months, he trashed the pink room and frequently fought with Jonas. At one point, he believed that he was [[Poisoned Mac N Cheese|"poisoned" after his macaroni and cheese had honey mustard]]. Additionally, in the last two weeks of the arc, Gavin became notorious for having frequent meltdowns, which sometimes prompted Daniel to act out in response. <ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/1arxz6d/very_old_gavindaniel_freakout/</ref>

| == Background ==
| |
| The earliest events of the Hype House Arc took place in the Pink Room, where Daniel lived until September. During this time, he filmed bizarre and sexually suggestive videos, including the [[The Toothbrush Incident|toothbrush]] and [[Pencil Incident|pencil incidents]]. He also engaged in destructive behavior, punching, kicking, and slamming his head into the room’s walls, resulting in significant damage. Despite this, Daniel remained in the room for another month until Gavin moved into the house.

| === Etymology ===
| |
| The term "Hype House" is derived from the TikTok Hype House, wherein a large group of famous TikTokers lived in a giant mansion in 2020.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hype_House</ref> Ironically, despite this implying that the Hype House had many members, it was just Daniel and Gavin, as well as Jonas and his wife.

| |
| Jonas, sometimes referred to as Jonaz or Jonez, served as the caretaker during this arc and appeared in many TikTok videos, especially in the first few months. Daniel seemed to hold a grudge against him, accusing Jonas of "abuse" and frequently instigating altercations. Daniel also accused him of being "racist" towards him. It was clear that, although Jonas did not kick him out, he did not want to have Daniel in the house.

|
| |
| == Gavin ==
| |
| {{Main|Gavin}}
| |
| Gavin was Daniel's housemate in the "Hype House," having moved in September 2021, and appeared frequently in Daniel's videos during this time. He was known for having meltdowns, many of which Daniel recorded and posted on TikTok. Daniel often blamed broken items and holes in the walls—many of which he had caused—on Gavin's meltdowns. Fans also noted that Gavin bore a resemblance to the character Hal Stewart from ''Megamind''.
