This Could Be the Scariest, Cruelest Prank of All Time
The Brazilian variety show “Programa Silvio Santos” is apparently known for its “run-of-the-mill hidden camera gags,” according to Gawker. This author had never heard of the show until now.
However, the show’s latest prank, titled “Ghost in the Elevator,” is absolutely horrifying and likely traumatic for the gag’s unfortunate victims.
Gawker provides a quick summary of the prank:
Titled “Ghost in the Elevator,” the so-called prank starts out normally enough, but soon the elevator lights start to flicker and out pops a little girl reminiscent of Samara from The Ring clutching a doll and starts to scream bloody murder and playtime is officially over.
The worst part? The dystopian laugh track playing over scenes of random people losing a good ten years off their lifespan.
Agreed.
Watch the cruel prank below:

Posted on November 27, 2012 at 2:44amI don’t know what’s wrong with me lately but I found myself laughing, especially when the little girl chased the guy off the elevator at the end.

Posted on November 27, 2012 at 7:55amThe same thing that’s wrong with me, I guess… Twisted.
I chuckled throughout, but the last guy being chased through the lobby was a laugh-out-loud.

Posted on November 27, 2012 at 2:12pmI laughed my booty cheeks right off throughout the whole thing! It’s not like we can fully enjoy these types of pranks here in America, since half of us would punch a little girl out if we were in a similar situation :D

Not funny at all. This prank was in very bad taste, and bad judgment.
That little girl was put in harm’s way. The terrified adults could have punched or kicked her, out of fear.
Also, this prank could have given someone a heart attack.

Posted on November 27, 2012 at 7:46amYou don’t think the whole thing was staged? Come on. It is a TV show, of course it was staged.

Posted on November 27, 2012 at 8:31amOf course it was “staged”… but the “victims” were not in on it. Those reactions were very real.
Haven’t you ever been the “victim” of a prank before?

Posted on November 26, 2012 at 11:34pmAs a family we used to scare each other all the time for S&Gs. But then life around these parts started getting scary enough without our practical jokes on each other and one by one we all began carrying. We still have our fun but the practical jokes involving scaring have stopped. That little girl was put into a rather dangerous position to be honest with you all. It’s a darned good thing that everyone who hopped into that elevator reflexively kicked into “flight” mode instead of “fight” mode or the janitor might have been scraping that kid off the floor. I know from past scares that my own instinct when suddenly frightened is to go on the offensive, kind of like that black guy on youtube that smashes the poor guy in the trash can who thought it would be a good idea to scare the crap out of him, and I’m sure that I’m not the only person on earth wired that way. Not saying I would have smashed this kid (I firmly believe absence from the body is presence with the Lord, so no theologically sound basis for ghosts) and don’t mean to be a stick in the mud, just an observation.

Posted on November 27, 2012 at 1:50amDitto. I know ghosts are not real. Santa’s not real. Satan is as real as your keyboard. He hopes you think he’s not. Hense all the lies. It twists the truth and tries to make you do nothing, know nothing. Like your TV. But I do punch at humans that spook me out of nowhere. Nuff said.

Let me get this straight:
ghosts= fake
satan= real
Santa= fake
Good to know, but I need more clarification:
What about demons, vampires, goblins, leprechauns, angels, ghouls, and zombies. Which are real and which are fake? Thanks for the help.
By the way, if this video was legit, the girl is lucky nobody smacked her. The old people are lucky they didnt have a heart attack. Scaring people is funny, but common sense should not be ignored.

Posted on November 26, 2012 at 11:11pmReminds me of the video for LG screens where they put them on the floor of an elevator and make it look like the floor is falling down the elevator shaft from under people’s feet. Funny video if you haven’t seen it.

Posted on November 27, 2012 at 2:12amThe re-election of President Obama was a foreseeable inevitability. The cruel prank was Fox News, Glenn Beck and the rest of the Conservative Bubblesphere systematically lying to you and telling you that there was some likelihood of another outcome.
