Heart-Stopping Pranks You Need To Pull This Halloween

 Make an eerily translucent ghost out of packing tape and secretly put it in a friend's backyard.





Put this scary peeper outside a window and wait for the scream.


Of course, depending on who you’re pranking, they might find this creepy-ass clown peeper even scarier.




Speaking of It — print out Pennywise’s face and put it in a window. This prank is cheaper and possibly even scarier!



Put red Kool-Aid in a shower head so that it will shoot a blast of "bloody" water onto your victim.



Rig your cooler so that a snake lunges up at whoever opens it.


Shock the next person who opens your fridge by having “mice” crawl out of the egg carton.



While we're talking about fridge-related pranks, try putting a "severed hand" on your milk.


 You can also put your own severed head in a jar to be discovered!

   


And since so many people are afraid of clowns these days, you can also put a clown head in a jar.



Hang this pleasant fellow made out of craft paper at the end of a dark hallway.


Make creepy Victorian ghost children appear in a mirror.


Leave appendages (actually hot dogs with press-on nails stuck in them) to be found by the unsuspecting.




Use toilet paper rolls to put glowing eyes in your yard.


Freak someone out by faking this cockroach infestation.

Make a dead body out of recyclables and leave it to be found.

Who ‘Ruled’ Halloween

Halloween is a big holiday in North America, but not so much in other places in the world, although it is gaining more popularity. You can’t deny that it is an enjoyable time for adults who decorate their homes, consume everything pumpkin spiced and carve out jack-o'-lanterns. 


But it’s probably the most entertaining for the little ones as parents take care of their children’s health and don't let them eat too much candy, but Halloween is an occasion when kids are even encouraged to go from door to door and ask for candy. Not only that, they can dress up as their favorite characters from cartoons, movies and more, ditching their boring everyday clothes for a day. Some of the costumes kids dress up in are quite intricate and it’s always interesting to see what they want to pretend to be.

10 Halloween Eye Makeup Looks




With just a few weeks until Halloween, it's time to start planning. Sure, there is the food for the party to think about, along with decorations, and all that candy that's needed for trick-or-treaters, but let's not forget the most important element of the holiday — the costume and nailing the perfect makeup look.


Sure, you could opt for the simple option and draw a stitched-up scar with eyeliner, maybe some blood dripping down and some spiderwebs around the eyes, or you could attempt to really step it up a notch.
