5 Major Halloween Pranks To Pull On Friends

Posted by Lisa in Halloween Activities, Halloween Games, Halloween Party Ideas

Halloween is less than 10 days out!  For most people, this means cool creepy Halloween decorations, candy, scary movies, and an excessive amount of children and pumpkins.

But to many, it is just the excuse needed to pull some great Halloween pranks on friends, and get away with it.  Before we move on, we must tell you that some of the following pranks can severely frighten someone, so really take the victim of the prank into consideration before you do any of these. The elderly, young children, pregnant women, people with heart problems, people with disabilities, people that are at extreme risk of suffering a serious injury during a fall, people much larger than you, violent people, fighting or martial arts experts, and people that are armed, are all considered very, very bad choices to pull these Halloween gags on.

Without further ado, here are 5 funny, and probably unethical, pranks to pull this Halloween.

#5 – Hide In The Fridge
Ok, so the first few pranks aren’t THAT bad.  For this one,  you will need access to someone’s home, so this is a good one to pull on someone you live with, or a very close friend. You will also need to be sure that the person will be going to the fridge soon, which is without a doubt the hardest part of this prank.

The best way to do this is to have someone that is close to your friend call them and say something like “Hey, will you do me a favor and look in the fridge to see if I left ‘whatever’ in there?”, or, have another person in on the prank with you simply ask the victim to grab them something from the fridge.

Now, preparation for the trick is usually quite easy. Simply empty out the refrigerator, and obviously hide the contents out of sight somewhere. Then, pull the shelving out of the fridge, and any drawers that may be at the bottom. Now, we also recommend unscrewing the light bulb that is inside the fridge, as well as making sure the kitchen and surrounding lights are off, as this will increase the effectiveness of the prank.

Now, just crawl on in, close the door, and wait.  Once the victim opens the door, you need to scream as loud as you possibly can, and jump out towards them. If you really want them to freak out, wear a scary mask.

#4 – Shower Surprise
I have personally witnessed this prank, and let me just say, it is hilarious.  You need to first find a place that has a tub/shower that is near the toilet in the bathroom.  You also need to be sure that anyone that may use the bathroom is someone you know very well, as if you were to pull this prank on someone you don’t know, you could very likely go to jail.

Aside from the above, the execution of this one is very simple. Hide in the shower, and when someone comes in and begins using the bathroom, pop out with a fierce and frightening scream. Whoever this prank is pulled on is likely to start running before their brain can process what is going on and tell them to first “stop” going to the bathroom. This is a pretty sick, mean prank, but hey, boring pranks are for boring websites, and we aren’t one of them.

#3 – Backseat Killer
Ok, this one is pretty mean (just wait until you see the top two), but just like the above prank, I have seen this one in person on numerous occasions, and it never fails to be hilarious.  This prank is great to play on a roommate or close friend!

First, you need access to their car, which will hopefully be a car with a back seat, or a 4 door truck, as a 2 seater vehicle just doesn’t work here. So, go ahead and find the keys and unlock the car, and then be sure to put the keys back where you found them.

Now, if you really want this one to be memorable, go ahead and put on a black jacket, but be sure it isn’t something you are commonly seen wearing, otherwise you will be more easily recognizable, and the victim won’t freak out as much. To top it off, a black ski mask, which can be found for a few dollars at any sporting goods store, will really make them jump.

Once nightfall comes, go out to the victim’s car and hop in. Be sure to lock the door behind you, unless they never lock the door, or it was unlocked prior to you unlocking it or getting in.  Now, wearing completely black clothing will help keep you hidden, so it is highly suggested. What you want to do here is make sure there is no garbage or personal belongings that will make noise when you move around. If there is, just move it out of the way. Now, lie down on the back seat, but try to keep your feet in the center of the vehicle as much as possible.

Once the victim gets in the vehicle, wait for them to get situated and comfortable. Then, as quietly as possible, sit up prominently in the center of the back seat, and scoot yourself forward so your body is positioned just behind the backs of the front seats.  When the poor victim looks in the rear view mirror, they will freak out, to say the least. I would suggest keeping your hands on the backs of the front seats, as most people’s reaction is to immediately slam on the brakes as hard as possible, which really sucks for you when you aren’t holding on to something!

#2 – Serial Killer
Ok, we are down to the last two. Now, to be honest, we wanted to list more pranks on here, but these are some of the absolute best, and we simply don’t know of any pranks that are more screwed up and downright wrong and terrifying than these last two.

First of all, you really need to consider who you pull this one on. If you plan on doing it to someone, really think it through first. You have been warned.  Once you choose your Halloween victim, you need to figure out where the circuit breaker box is within their home. It is usually found on the outside wall of the home, or in a closet. In the circuit breaker, there will be a main switch that will kill power to the entire home, make sure you know where this switch is.

Get dressed up. Don’t go too crazy with a costume, but look scary, and look serious. Now, if the switch is inside the house, simply wait until the victim is in another part of the home, then switch the breaker, and stand right inside the door, and wait…

If the switch is on the outside of the house, you can either have a friend flip the switch for you, or, you can flip the switch and then stand right on the other side of whichever door would lead from the house to the switch.  In either case, the victim will nearly bump right into you, and when they do so, they will experience fear that is like no other. This is likely to ruin friendships, and give the victim nightmares for weeks to come.

#1 – Death
Last, but definitely not least, this prank is just downright wrong. The emotions that you will instill in the victim are usually unrecoverable. This will likely make someone hate you if done correctly, so be careful.
This one is best performed in your own home, as you won’t seem out of place or anything. You will usually prepare for a few hours before pulling the prank, and then you will have a specific time for your victim to arrive at your house. You will need them to walk in, so be sure to say something like “Ok, just walk in when you get here, I’ll leave the door unlocked” when you talk to them.

Preparing the scene takes some work. What you want to do is make a certain area of your home look like an actual murder or suicide (the choice is up to you) has occurred, with you being the victim.  Because it is Halloween, you can get all of the stuff you need from a local Halloween or costume store. Get plenty of fake blood, and make sure you get the expensive stuff, as it looks much more realistic, and you can usually find a large bottle, which you will need. You should also get some fake wound material, which is usually just silicone and some make-up for effects.

If you need some ideas on making fake wounds that look real, go scour YouTube, and search for something like “special effects makeup”. You can usually get some very good how-to videos, and then you will be on your way to the most horrific prank you’ve ever pulled.  Now, personally, I would do this prank in either the kitchen or bathroom area, as they are likely to have hard flooring which won’t stain. Remember, there will be lots of fake blood everywhere, so carpet and drapery are bad.

Now that you have your makeup done, your fake founds, and your clothing of choice, go ahead and prepare the actual area you are going to be “dead” in. Start by taking some of the fake blood and lightly drizzle it onto nearby surfaces, including walls, appliances, countertops, etc. If you would like to add to the realism, you can take a straw and dip it in the bottle of fake blood, then place your finger tightly at the top of the straw and remove it. This will keep the straw full of fake blood, and then you can place it in your mouth and blow in one hard and fast motion, like a sneeze, to create a “spray and spatter” effect.

Next, rub some fake blood on your hand, and find a surface near where your “body” will be, and go ahead and place your hand flat on the surface, then slide it in a downward motion. Finally, strategically cover yourself in fake blood, and then create a good puddle on the floor.  Place your murder weapon of choice, whether it be a knife, a gun, or a baseball bat, nearby, and be sure to cover it in blood. If you choose to use a blunt object, such as a bad, stick, brick, etc., then be sure to put a good amount of fake blood on your head and face, and it also never hurts to find some hair, whether real or fake, and rub it in the blood that is on the blunt object.

The horror is in the details.

I would go on to explain what your victims reaction would be once they walked in your home, but I feel bad for them already, so you can use your imagination.

This is truly one of the sickest, most horrifying pranks ever. But then again, isn’t that the point?

Halloween Games You Must Play

Posted by Lisa in Free Halloween Ecards, Halloween Activities, Halloween Games, Halloween Party Ideas, Things To Do On Halloween

Halloween is a fun day, but for some of us, it’s a little more challenging thinking up things to do this Halloween.  Whether you are going to spend the night at home with family, or you are going to be at a Halloween party in the neighborhood with your children and friends, or maybe some of you will be looking for things to help keep the spirit of the night going.

We wanted to share a few fun and simple Halloween games for you to try, whether you need to entertain children, or just yourself and your friends this Halloween holiday.  The following are three of our favorite Halloween games to play:

Guess The Body Part
This is a simple, yet fun little game, which both kids and adults can have fun with.
Here’s what you do:

• Get 5 brown paper bags and 5 plastic bags
• Place one plastic bag within each paper bag
• Cut up 4-5 Bananas and then place the pieces inside one of the plastic bags. Mash them up. These are going to be “brains”
• Take a couple of large grapes or olives and peel the skin off and place these in a different bag. These are going to be “eyeballs”
• Take stick pretzels, making sure they are the large straight ones, and soak them in water for just a moment, then place them in a different plastic bag. These are going to be “bones”
• Cook up some spaghetti noodles until they are semi-soft, and then place them in a plastic bag. These are going to be “intestines” or “guts”
• Peel the skin off of oranges and place them on a sheet in the oven for a few minutes at 200 degrees. Pull them out when they are nearly dry and place them in a plastic bag. These are going to be “skin”
• Now, label each bag from 1 to 5.
• Each person will start at bag number one, and work their way down, trying to identify which body parts are inside each bag, without seeing down inside the bag or pulling the contents out. They will not be able to blurt their guesses out, and they can’t write them down until they have felt each bag.
• They then write their answers down, in order, and whoever guesses correctly wins a prize. This is especially fun for kids because it is creepy, and you can offer a bag of candy to the winner!

Costume Scavenger Hunt
This is a really fun game for adults to play on Halloween!

• What you need to do is split everyone up into groups. The amount of people in each group depends on the amount of people that are with you, but you should aim for 4 or 5 groups if possible.
• Make sure each group has a digital camera, or a cell phone that is capable of taking pictures.
• Then, write out a list of 10 or 15 Halloween costumes that are somewhat common.
• Now, all you need to do is give a copy of the list to each group, and they have to set out to take a picture of their entire group with a person that is wearing one of the costumes on the list.
• Not only is this challenging, but it is really fun having a group of people try to find others willing to take pictures with them!
• The first group to have a picture with every costume on the list wins!

Guess Who
This is a very simple, yet extremely fun game.

• Basically, you tell every guess beforehand to make sure they are in costume before they come to your party. Be sure to put an emphasis on covering the face and any distinctive features.
• Now, once all of the guests arrive, let them try to guess who each person is.
• This can be turned into a really great drinking game, as each time someone guesses wrong, they must take a shot.

Best Tips For Halloween Parties On A Budget

Posted by Lisa in Free Halloween Ecards, Halloween Party Ideas

Alright, so Halloween is on its way (Friday, October 31, 2008 to be exact), you want to have the best Halloween party imaginable, and you’re broke as heck. It happens. Not all of us can afford those fancy Halloween robotic zombies, actors resembling horror film characters, trap doors, mazes, and crazy special effects.

But it’s ok! There is plenty you can do to throw a Halloween party on a budget if you put your mind to it!  We will provide you with the best tips for throwing Hallowing Parties on a budget.

Adult Halloween Parties

1. Alcohol. No party is completely without plenty and plenty of alcohol. Check those little coupon advertisements the grocery stores send out. They usually have a sale on Halloween booze, especially as we get closer to the big goolish holiday.
2. Halloween decorations and Trinckets.  A great place to find good deals is wholesale places, such as Costco and Sam’s Club. Now, these places require a membership to shop, but ask your friends and family, as someone is bound to be a member. These are great places for buying in bulk (which you need to do if you want to have a real party!).
3. Halloween Music.  Because it’s Halloween, a lot of people find it necessary to play one of those “Halloween Sounds” CD’s… mmmmmm, not sure if that’s the best idea.  First of all, no one can dance to scary sounds. It just makes the entire party situation bland and uncomfortable.  So pull out some Michael Jackson and dance the night away with Thriller!  What ever you decide to go with make sure you play it loud!
4. Themes. Try to keep it simple but effective. A crazy haunted house theme would be a little too much for a party. People will be dancing, falling over, and throwing up on your fake monsters. No one wants to deal with that, and on top of everything else, it’s EXPENSIVE!
5. Setting. A few black lights scattered around the area people will be in, mixed with a strobe light or two, should about do it. Keep everyone in costume, including yourself, kill all the normal boring bright lights, crank the music up, and let the alcohol flow. This will make the party memorable and fun, and you will still be able to keep some cash in your pocket.
6. People.  Last but not least, you need people. I mean, how do you expect to throw a huge Halloween party without people? So, start of by simply telling everyone about it. Tell friends, family, co-workers, neighbors, the cute cashier at the grocery store, and the homeless guy down the street. Tell everyone!  You can send Halloween Invites by sending them free Halloween Ecards.  Email these Ecards to everyone in your address book, and even post bulletins on Myspace! God knows I’ve done it a million times.  You can even do Naughty Halloween Ecards too!  It won’t cost you a dime.

Of course, when everyone shows up, don’t forget to charge $5-$10 at the door. This will make you back everything you’ve spent (if not more), allow you to have an great Halloween party, and help pay for some aspirin when you wake up in the morning.

3 Things You Must Do For Halloween

Posted by Lisa in Halloween Party Ideas, Things To Do On Halloween, halloween costume ideas

So Halloween is upon us, and you have absolutely no idea how to celebrate it, short of walking around in a mask and grabbing free goodies from strangers.

That’s alright, not everyone is perfect.

First thing first, you need a Halloween costume. Everyone likes a good costume, so don’t skimp on this. You don’t skimp on beer for St. Patty’s day, don’t skimp on costumes for Halloween!

There are the classics, like Frankenstein, Werewolves, Freddy or Jason, zombies, aliens, nurses/doctors, school boys/girls, maids, etc.  But, it never hurts to go to the creative side and be a little extreme. The whole point of Halloween costumes is to make a statement, see who can stand out more, see who can go all out with a unique idea.

A few things that haven’t been over-played that push the envelope of “acceptable” would be costumes in the form of human anatomy or sex toys; infamous “bad” historical figures (Hitler? Saddam? Bin Laden?), or even a priest and a child (“priest” can be replaced with Michael Jackson).

Point is, you need a Halloween costume and we’re giving you Halloween costume ideas!

After you get yourself a costume, you need Halloween decorations. Decorate your house to look as creepy as possible. Most people go with the regular jack-o-lanterns, some fake cobwebs, maybe a zombie figure or head here and there. (Note: I like to paint my jack-o-lanterns black with some spray paint after they’ve been carved.)  You should do better. Dress a friend up as a zombie, and don’t be shy with the makeup! Do something unique, like make a fake stomach underneath a big shirt and make the stomach look like a gaping morbid wound, and then fill it with candy.

Go all out, and be sure to scare everyone!

Then, last but not least, you need a Halloween party! Once the night dies down, and the children head back home, be sure to have all your friends over for a goolish Halloween party! Keep the costumes, dye all of the mixed drinks blood red, and enjoy Halloween!
