Philadelphia native Holly Ciampaglio took to TikTok to share her lighthearted story with her 60,800 followers

She explained that she had been unable to open the front door due to the poor positioning of the package, adding that she had desperately ‘tried to flag down a neighbour’.

In the clip, which has now been viewed more than 592,000 times, Holly explains the situation while speaking directly to the camera.

She suppressed a nervous laugh and began, “I got a package from Amazon. It’s supposed to be a cardboard cutout of a Star Wars character—that’s not important.”

She then turned the camera around to show the large package on the sidewalk, wedged between the outward-opening front door and the metal railing behind it, preventing her from getting out of the house.

“Why? We can’t open our door. Oh god, we’re stuck. Oh no,” the content creator said.

She captioned the clip: “Amazon we are still stuck. It’s been 3 hours… trying to pull over a neighbor.”

And Holly’s video was quickly flooded with comments from other social media users, with one writing: ‘Legend has it they’re still stuck there…’

Another commented: ‘The thought of not being able to open the door makes me sick!’

And a third added: ‘This happened to me a few years ago! Call your local police station, not 911, and explain what happened. They will send someone to help! They will laugh at you but they WILL help you.’

Holly’s video was quickly flooded with comments from other social media users, with one writing: ‘Legend has it they’re still stuck there…’

After the widespread outrage, Holly uploaded a follow-up clip providing more context.

“It’s been a few days. We’re not sitting still,” she began, before showing viewers that she could now open the door in question.

Holly then answered questions from other social media users.

‘As for the back door, first of all, we live in a house, not an apartment.

“We do have a back door and a patio in the back. We just live in a very narrow house because we live in a city.”

She showed viewers her garden and then pointed out that the garden is surrounded on all sides by neighbors, so she couldn’t just escape.

Holly pointed to a gate to her right and added, “That leads to a parking lot right next to our house.

‘Look, if we climbed over this fence and jumped off, we’d probably hurt ourselves. So we weren’t going to do that…

‘We weren’t going to hurt ourselves trying to grab a package on the street because we knew our friend had dropped someone off at the train station in our town.

“We asked them to come and look at our WiFi anyway, so we knew they would come.”

She also showed viewers her garden, before pointing out that it was surrounded by neighbors on all sides, so she couldn’t just escape.

She continued, “We probably waited for about three or four hours before he came to relieve us.

‘As for everyone telling us to “take the glass off our door” – it’s Sunday, too much work, especially when we know a friend is coming.

“Everyone says, ‘Break a window.’ Would you break a window in your own house to get to a package? No.

‘Also, we live in a big city, so I don’t know how long the local police will exist. [would take]. It would probably have taken the local police just as long as it took our friend to release us.’

Holly concluded: ‘So, everyone who was really concerned about us – thank you. I love you. You’re amazing people.

‘Everybody who made fun of us for being, I don’t know, a little bit lazy – whatever.

“But I’m just glad that this is a universal experience, because this was absolutely insane.”
