I remember a prank call where someone called a pet store and said they wanted to buy a pet unicorn. The store owner tried to be polite and explained that they don't sell unicorns. But the caller kept insisting, saying they saw it in the store window. It was a simple yet really funny prank call.
There was this prank call where a girl called a hair salon and said she had hair made of spaghetti and wanted a special haircut. She described how the 'noodles' were getting too long and tangled. The salon staff had a good laugh and told her they only cut human hair, not pasta hair. It was a really funny and creative prank call.
Well, one story is about a girl who pranked her boyfriend. She disguised her voice and called him, saying she was a big fan of his and wanted to meet him secretly. He was really confused at first but then started to laugh when he realized it was his girlfriend.
One time, a girl received a prank call from someone who claimed to be outside her window. He described what she was wearing and the layout of her room. She was terrified and called the police immediately. Turns out it was a 'friend' of a friend who thought it would be funny, but it was far from it.
A group of students pranked a local library. They called and asked if they could borrow the librarian for a day to help them organize their 'home library' which was actually just a bookshelf in their dorm room. The librarian was really nice at first and started giving advice until she realized it was a prank. It was all in good fun though.
The unknown. When you don't know who is on the other end of the call and what their intentions are. For example, in many stories, the caller's identity is hidden, which makes it really scary.
One time, my friend called a pizza place and said he was from a radio station. He told them they won a fake competition and they got so excited. They started asking all these questions about when they'd get their 'prize'. It was hilarious.
There was a young girl who made a hindi prank call to a radio station. She called in as an old lady and requested a very old and rare song. The radio jockey was a bit confused as it was an odd request from an elderly - sounding person. But he played the song. Later, the girl called again and revealed that she was just pranking and that she loved how the jockey handled it.
It depends. Some prank call comics might need a release to reach a wider audience, while others might be shared informally without a formal release process.
Some people freeze when they get a scary prank call. They don't know what to do and just hold the phone in shock. For example, my friend got a call with some really spooky laughter and he just sat there, not even able to hang up for a few seconds.
