How to make Prank Calls on someone?

The name you use for yourself during a prank call should be different from your original name. You need to first of all ask yourself – will this person appreciate my joke? Or will he or she take it too far? You need to appear very serious; you can make the phone call with a heavy tricky voice. You should probably not go into making a prank call if the person at the other end will react negatively or wouldn’t find the Humour in such jokes.

Secondly, you need to be mindful of your voice especially when making a prank call on someone very close to you – someone who can recognize your voice easily. If your voice is easily recognizable then your cover will be blown up and the prank call becomes meaningless. The aim of making a prank call is to make a joke without anyone noticing that it was you.

You need to rehearse your prank call before you eventually make the call. Try as much as possible to come up with an idea that will thrill or arrest the person without him or her suspecting any foul play. You need to rehearse a prank call so that you don’t start laughing during or after the call.

After exchanging some few words with the person and he or she has expressed shock over the call , add a twist to the conversation and then wrap it up .

Act calmly when wrapping up the phone call and try as much as possible not to laugh, you must remain oblivious and do not hang up. Though you are expected to have an idea or topic of the prank calls, don’t script up fully the whole show to avoid messing it up.
