Everyone should know the various ways to scare someone. As a child, you may have been the victim of other people's pranks. Knowing how to scare people is good so you can prepare yourself for revenge one day. In addition, you can also scare other people at certain times, for example on April Fool's Day or Halloween. Have fun, but don't cross the line while doing it.
Step
Method 1 of 3: Waiting for the Right Time
Step 1. Know your target
Waiting somewhere and jumping to scare someone depends on your ability to identify the target. Find out their schedule and routine. This will save time trying to pinpoint the right moment to startle him.
Don't scare a stranger because you don't know what he can do. You can get hurt if you upset the wrong person
Step 2. Surprise people from inside the closet
Find a wardrobe that many people open frequently, then jump out. Hold onto something like canned soup or wear a thick jacket.
Step 3. Hide behind the door
This only applies to doors that open inward. Hide behind a door, then when someone closes it, jump outside screaming.
To add an element of surprise to your prank, say something specific like "Boo" or "Spaghetti." This can give you a chance to say, "What's so scary about a plate of spaghetti?"
Step 4. Hide behind the bushes
Crouch behind the bushes and jump when someone passes.
Be careful not to prick the thorns in the bushes
Step 5. Get out of the trash can
This is a prank for the brave. Make sure the trash can you use is big enough to fit in, and empty. When someone passes, jump or scream.
Step 6. Hide behind the mattress
Position yourself under your sister or brother's bed, then wait until nightfall. After your sibling turns off the light and lies down on the bed, whisper their name in a scary voice.
Step 7. Hide under the table
This technique can be done if one of your parents works at home or often uses a desk. Position yourself in the lower corner of the table, then when someone sits down, hold on to their feet tightly.
Step 8. Pretend to be a mannequin
Find the nearest store that has mannequins in front of its window. Stand next to the mannequin facing the street. When someone walks in front of you, jump in front of the window with your hand pressed against the person.
Method 2 of 3: Using Tools
Step 1. Use a plastic spider toy
Fake spiders are a great accessory to scare relatives or friends. These toys can be purchased at various toy stores at relatively low prices. Look for plastic spiders that are large and look like real ones.
- Place the spider. Use a thread to hang the spider on the door frame. Tie the butt end of the toy tightly.
- After that, find a way to hang the spider to the end of the string just above the door. This will make the spider appear suddenly in front of the people below it.
Step 2. Prepare a doll
Puppets are an old tool to scare someone. This thing is funny and scary at the same time. If you can find a spooky-looking doll, use it. If not, you can modify another existing doll.
- Repaint an existing doll. Look for white paint or spray paint, then coat the entire surface of the doll with white paint.
- For those of you who want to make it more spooky, you can paint the doll's eyes red or black. The resulting effect will make the doll even more terrifying.
Step 3. Hide the tools you want to use
The location of placing aids such as dolls or toy spiders is very important. This is a very effective way to scare people in the house like your sister and mother. Before they go to bed, place the doll in a visible place from the bed. Place the spider over the door that many people pass through.
Another fun way to scare them is to wait until everyone is asleep, then place the toy spider next to the pillow. If they wake up in the middle of the night, you may hear screams
Step 4. Use their phone
If you have access to someone's cell phone, you can really scare that person. Select someone close to them, such as a close friend or family member, then replace the contact information with your phone number.
-
Message them via fake contact. This part requires a little creativity. It's no fun if you just send "I'm a ghost" message. You need to say something weirder, for example:
- "There's a killer roaming around your house. Lock the doors and windows immediately."
- "Did you know that the hair on the neck suddenly standing up in the middle of the night is a sign that a ghost is passing by?"
- This is a rather complicated method of scaring. You may be bullied back, or not get the expected results.
Method 3 of 3: Dress Up to Scare Someone
Step 1. Put on a mask
Wearing a scary mask is a great way to scare someone. You can usually find these masks at a party supply or toy store.
Step 2. Apply pale white makeup
Using a foundation of white makeup will make you look like a corpse or a ghost. This can be combined with various techniques to surprise people.
Step 3. Use ketchup as fake blood
Pour a little ketchup in the palm of the hand. Wait until you hear someone you want to scare approach. Scream loudly, then smack the sauce-filled palms against parts of your head such as your neck or forehead.
Step 4. Wear a black robe with a hood
The black cloak is a very common spooky costume. You can wait for someone like an old man to come home, then wait at the door. Wait patiently for them to come and make sure the robe covers your face.
Step 5. Dress up like a clown
Clowns are scary. If you dress up and wear appropriate makeup, you will surely scare other people away. Combine this spooky costume with the technique of surprising people while hiding.
Step 6. Make it look as if there is blood in your eye
This is an easy trick to look spooky. Just apply fake blood under your eyes. Apply it so you look like you're crying.
For a more dramatic effect, lower your head and cover your eyes and pretend to cry. Wait for someone to approach, then show your face
Tips
- Make sure you can position yourself without getting caught.
- We recommend that you practice the above methods at night. Also, make sure your spooky costume blends in with its surroundings.
- Put on a scary Halloween costume.
- Don't make a sound before scaring someone.
- Stay away from light and don't make noises (screeching on floors and stairs, laughter, heavy breathing, etc.).
- Wear shoes that are comfortable and don't make noise when worn.
- Scratch the edge of the bed, trying to make creepy noises. Also, try running across the room.
Warning
- Beware of shadows. The light from the door can cast shadows that people can see. Try to keep the area in use dark.
- Remember, don't do this to anyone less than 7 years old or over 60 years old, as well as pregnant women. You can cause nightmares and permanent trauma in young children, trigger heart attacks in parents, or harm mother and fetus from the resulting stress.
