A recently surfaced video captures 18-year-old Anna Kepner dancing with fellow passengers on the Carnival Horizon, providing one of the last public glimpses of the Florida teen before her tragic death on the cruise ship.
Shared by TikTok user @nickcapo609, the footage highlights the festive Sail Away Party on November 2, as the ship set sail from Miami for a weeklong Caribbean adventure.
The video shows vacationers enjoying the music on the open deck, with Kepner prominently featured at the center of the crowd. She is seen wearing black shorts and a white top, dancing alongside other passengers, while her grandmother, dressed in pink, is nearby.

This poignant video, displaying Kepner’s joyful moments aboard the Carnival Cruise Line ship, was posted online before the somber news of her passing.
Authorities have yet to disclose many details regarding the events that unfolded between the recording of the video and the discovery of Kepner’s body in her cabin on November 7.
She was found dead Nov. 7 in her cabin aboard the Carnival Horizon.
The teenager’s body was found under a bed in a room she was sharing with two of her siblings, including her 16-year-old stepbrother.
Officials said she died from “mechanical asphyxia,” and the FBI has launched an investigation.

The ship returned to PortMiami Nov. 9, and federal authorities boarded and began collecting evidence.
While the bureau hasn’t publicly identified anyone as a suspect and no criminal charges have been filed, the feud in family court between Anna’s father and stepmother, Christopher Kepner and Shauntel Kepner, and Shauntel’s ex-husband, Thomas Hudson, has revealed that their 16-year-old son is being investigated in Anna’s death.

Kepner, of Titusville, Florida, was a high school senior at Temple Christian School. She was preparing to graduate in spring 2026 and hoped to enlist in the U.S. Navy, her family said.
