Friday the 13th - I need your help!!

My daughter has talked me in to having a horror movie night with her friends. It will be from 6 pm to midnight, with the option of plopping a sleeping bag on the floor and sleeping over.

I have raided the 99 cent store for gory decorations and am ordering pizza.
We are making spooky snacks as well, like eye-ball deviled eggs and mudpie pudding cups with worms.

BUT...

What I need from you fine LP'ers is a sneaky, scary trick I can play on them while they are watching one of the movies. I don't want them to pee themselves, just give them a good jump. Keep in mind they are 16 and 17 year olds...so it can be slightly harsh LOL!! I figure I will attempt this during THE GRUDGE or TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, since these seem to be the most creepy to these guys.

I thought about finding one of those fake chainsaws that they use at Halloween Haunt, but thought that might be a little too mean...but still.....Hum.

Any ideas?

Have fun

I never thought of Jason!! Holy cow, that would be scary.

That also makes me think about slowing coming out of the hallway in the "SCREAM" ghost get-up. With the lights dimmed already, the white glow of the mask could be effective....

Or sneak out the back door, come around to the front door and knock really lightly..just enough to "almost" think you hear someone at the door.

You need to stand outside the window, in which ever get up you decide. Then lightly tap, tap, tap, until someone notices and screams.
You should probably do this at some point after the first murder in the second movie.

You're evil, but evil in a good way! Have fun.

I don't have a scare idea yet. Maybe I should ask my 16 year old son this afternoon, LOL

Okay, you need to know that this house is an older home with plenty of creaks and such.

And the front windows face right into the TV viewing area, and there is a porch in the front. With trees. So you can be partially hidden. EEEK.

This is the perfect scary house!! OMG, the kids are going to die. When we had to trick-or-treat at grandpa's house when I was very little, I was scared of it even though it normally was a loving granparent-type home. At night, I don't care what you say, it can be very spooky!!!

Why don't you try both? Do the outside thing first during the first movie, then when things settle down and you're in the middle of the second movie, excuse yourself to the bathroom and dress us as the Scream guy and just stand in that dark hallway that leads to the living room. Oh, I'd die, I tell you!

I didnt think you needed a fake chainsaw from a halloween store...just a regular one with the chain off. Do this with the Jason mask, and its a sure thing everytime. I know its been done, but it works and is soooo funny to see their faces. I have also seen it on America's Funniest Home Videos where the parents woke up the kids to the chainsaw with the mask on right after they fell asleep after watching the movie. too funny!

Now that's just cruel! My poor kid would be tramatized for life if I did that to him.
It's one thing to play a prank during the movie, but to wake a kid up... that's just too far.

Oh, do you have a call-waiting display? If not, Auntie and Uncle will be happy to call a few times and just hang up.

OOOhhh you should call and say "HAVE YOU CHECKED THE CHILDREN???"

Or say "SEVEN DAYS..." OOHH Yeah, that's better! The Ring is one of the movies we'll probably watch.

Or you can call in a Michael Jackson voice HEE HEE

Uncle can do voices, so we'll think of something clever. I like the Seven Days thing, but I'm too scared to see that movie.

How much fun is this?

I like the Jason outside the window thing too.

One night when my son (14 at the time) and his friends went there, the older brother who drove them told his dad they were going. The dad hid his car and was hiding inside with a chainless chain saw. He rev'd that thing up and scared the you-know-what out of them. Once the older brother and dad started cracking up, the rest of the boys thought it was hysterical!

You know, I just gotta say, in this day of Hostel & Saw, nothing much startles these kids.

I think you would get a great reaction from them if you just stood behind them with the remote, turned off the TV, and brought out the family board games.

That'll scare 'em.

Oooh, ooh! OR turned off the tv, and engaged in the group in a conversation beginning, "so who here is sexually active?"

That will scare the you-know-what out of them!!
