Climax time (Favorite part) - As the above has happened, give a signal to your team and instruct them come out of their respective hiding places. (the signal could be anything such as a hand signal or any sort of signal from a spy device such as the invisible Bluetooth ear piece) As the signal is given, your team mates who are currently disguised in a spooky and horrifying costume such as the joker in Batman or as the ghost in Scary Movie, your team mates should encircle your audience. And SPOOF ! watch your audience freak out as they get frightened by your team mates and the scary noises made by them. Their expression will undergo a drastic change and they might even FAINT ! (oh yes that would definitely happen) Tips - Make sure that you have practiced well before hand and devised a good horror story to present before them. Also choose your target audience and location wisely. Warnings- This is not a kiddy Prank to be performed by someone inexperienced but is a Dangerous, Killer PRANK only to be performed by some experienced, professional and gutsy Prankster. NOTE - This is just an idea (Concept) for a prank, entirely original devised by me. There are also many other possible ways of execution for this prank. What I just listed above is a possible way. Haha ! Now it would be totally awesome if someone would perform this prank and I would definitely want to watch the reaction to this prank.

Once you have attracted their attention, they might just stare at you or approach you in a manner that portrays their disinterest towards you (but actually they are interested in you, that is why they are approaching you) Eventually, even if they stare at you, they will definitely approach you or walk in your direction. Once done, you want to ask them if they would like to listen to a story about the street in which they are. The manner in which you say so should be mysterious like a deep voice and clear tone or in any such manner. Even if they don't reply start out with a story that would attract their attention (this could be done by describing your current surroundings and environment in the story or by listing names in the story that are similar to your audience's names) So, how would you know their names? The answer to this question is quite simple. You just have to eavesdrop on their conversation and try to get to know more about them. This should be done before hand. OK so, as your story proceeds word by word turn it into a horror story in which a magician performs a card trick involving the joker. As your doing so, at the same time perform a card trick to any one of them (if its a group) or to your sole spectator which involves the use of a joker. (It could be anything such as an ambitious card routine (the one that I would do) or a sandwich effect in which the chosen card gets sandwiched between a pair of jokers or a trick involving a gaff deck in which the chosen cards turn into jokers or any such trick in which a joker just pops out suddenly) Then, once the joker has been revealed to your spectators, say something like, " Oh no history is repeating itself" or "Is this a bad Omen?" or just go to the point by saying, "This is bad and its just like how it happened in the story of ......(here comes the name of the street).... Street. As you do the above, you will notice a change in the facial expression or the body language of your audience. Climax time (Favorite part) - As the above has happened, giv

A Prank designed for the Streets & a Possible way of execution FYI - this pranks work best at night or when it is dark. ( don't know about broad daylight) An appropriate time would be 7pm. Ideal Location - should not be a crowded area. It can be a street known for its bad reputation such as one where crime takes place (just a suggestion) or one known for its lack of pedestrians. Basically you want such a place where people are not keeping track of you and your actions Execution of the Prank- So, being in such a location (as stated above) you want to dress in such a way that you merge or blend in with your surroundings. Some suggestions for doing so are : you can dress up like a goth, a badass, a masked magician or you could just wear a dark outfit that covers your true identity such as wearing a black hoodie and black gloves. (Basically you want to look like how someone mysterious & unknown would look) The next part is all about knowing and identifying your audience (those on who the prank will be performed) - Basically you want a group of about 3 people. Even a single person would do. They should look like a bunch of superstitious people easily deceived by a mysterious person ( that person is You) One thing I forgot to mention is that you should come along with a team of 4 to 5 people. They are the ones who will play a crucial part in the Prank. Also you want them to be dresses in a spooky and horrifying costume. For Example, you could have your team dressed up like the ghosts in Scary Movie. (just a suggestion). So, once you have identified your target (audience) you want to attract their attention (this could be done by doing something unusual and unique or by demonstrating your skills such as performing cardistry)

PRANK unsuspecting shoppers with "ghosts" in store display windows, that fade in and out of view. The best result is if only catches the eye of one person out a group of friends, but it disappears before she tries desperately to convince them of the apparition she's seen. It might be even eerier if it's all set up in a vacant (darkened) store window in mall. Perhaps a floating disembodied head -- of Miley Cyrus (with her tongue hanging out). That would freak anyone out! lol Use the classic Pepper's ghost effect, with the modern convenience of a digital video projector.

How about like you have a team that appears to advertise an energy drink and wear the same shirts for the drink maybe we call it electron energy drink and then you ask random people on the street to try the energizing taste of the electron and utilizing yigal mikasa electric touch pro you touch the can as they drink now that will be something i want to watch.

It would be cool if your hands are full of things and you ask someone for help, when they help you, you purposely drop something, but you make it float back to your hands!
