[OMFG] The Scariest Elevator Prank Ever Makes Grown Men Cry!
I’m always shocked at how much more daring international television is than what we see in the States.
Last night my brother posted on his Facebook wall a 5-minute long video from a popular Brazilian TV show. The fact that my own brother said this would terrify him was enough to get me to click the play button.
What you’ll see in the following video is a series of people entering an elevator that’s been designed as a prank. The most epic prank I’ve ever seen. While the passenger or passengers take a ride up, the lights begin to flicker, and eventually go out. As the elevator is stalled, a little girl sneaks in through a side panel. When the lights pop back on, the reactions are hilarious! Watch as grown men cry!
“Tell Me Lies” actor Sonia Mena is joining the recently announced Chase Yi on Paramount and Blumhouse’s new Paranormal Activity movie, Deadline reports this afternoon.
Ian Tuason (Undertone) will direct the eighth installment in the Paranormal Activity film franchise, set to release in theaters May 21, 2027.
Plot and character details remain tightly guarded at this stage, but the original Paranormal Activity, created by Oren Peli, first hit theaters in 2007. Its groundbreaking minimalist approach to found-footage ghost stories has spawned a seven-film franchise that’s grossed nearly $900 million worldwide.
It followed a couple terrorized by a strange presence shortly after moving into their suburban home.
While we wait for further news on plot or whether the demonic Toby will reappear, Tuason previously revealed to Bloody Disgusting that technology will play a huge role in his vision: “Technology — camera technology — has advanced to a point where it’s become a big part of the film and what I want to do there.”
That brings this project full circle for Tuason, as it was the original Paranormal Activity that inspired the filmmaker’s haunting debut, undertone.
Franchise originator Oren Peli will produce for Solana Films, with James Wan and Jason Blum producing for Blumhouse Atomic Monster. Michael Clear and Judson Scott will exec produce for Blumhouse Atomic, with Alayna Glasthal overseeing the project for the company. Other exec producers include Steven Schneider for Room 101, Inc., Dan Slater and Cody Calahan.
While we wait to learn more, a Paranormal Activity stage play arrives this summer.
