Under the ethereal name Kitchen Ghosts, food artist Daria Khoroshavina conjures culinary magic, literally. Indeed, no AI was used here, just old fashioned craft and wizardry.

Her looping animations feel like haunted vignettes: spoons stir on their own, steam wafts from invisible hands, and desserts get dusted by phantom pastry chefs.

These aren’t your average GIFs. They’re delicate, dreamy moments that float somewhere between vintage cookbook charm and a Miyazaki daydream.

Each scene is carefully choreographed, whispering stories of kitchens where the cooks have vanished but the rituals remain.

Call it ghost cuisine, simultaneously elegant, eerie, and mesmerizing.
