I'm a Humanitarian: A fair number of pranks involve encounters with cannibals. One note worthy example involves a wine maker who uses human blood as his secret ingredient. | |

Special Guest: Matt Hardy. Unlike Punk'd, he was the one doing the scaring. After The Reveal, the victim claimed to be a WWE fan. | |

Deadly Prank | |
Scare Tactics (2003) / int_952f8f26 | comment |
Deadly Prank: Somewhat averted in that a couple of occasions, the actors clearly cut a scare short when the target is showing signs of excessive distress. There's also another form of prank they do, in which the victim believes THEY are pulling the prank for a show called Fear Antics. The prank they think they're pulling usually results in a (supposed) death, and then we see the real prank beginning. | |

Mundanger: For all of the pranks that involve horror-movie-like scenarios like monsters, ghosts, and psychos, there are some that feature more “mundane” terrifying scenarios like being arrested as an accomplice to a crime, witnessing child abuse, or being committed to a mental asylum against your will. | |

What You Are in the Dark | |
Scare Tactics (2003) / int_afc6df04 | comment |
What You Are in the Dark: Or rather, what you are at your most vulnerable. Oftentimes victims will beg for their lives, or even make desperate, less-than-righteous bargains when threatened. Once in a while, though, victims will display some degree of bravery and try to protect their allied actors. One victim even tried to scare away aliens who were closing in on him and a young girl on an abandoned bus. | |

Catchphrase | |
Scare Tactics (2003) / int_b01abe4f | comment |
Catchphrase: Usually to end the pranks, an actor would ask the victim, "Are you scared?" The victim would say some variant of "yes" or just be too scared to say anything and the actor would say "You shouldn't be. You're on Scare Tactics." | |

Show Within a Show | |
Scare Tactics (2003) / int_c2393191 | comment |
Show Within a Show: "Fear Antics" is the fake version of Scare Tactics, where the victim thinks they're setting someone else up before things go horribly wrong. Another gimmick revolves around a parody of the program Cheaters, in which the victim is set up with a camera crew as they spy on someone cheating on their spouse. One victim saw a cheating man enter an abandoned warehouse with his lover, and then entered the warehouse only to see the man surrounded by black garbage bags and holding a bloody knife. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here | |
Scare Tactics (2003) / int_d9cf40fa | comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: A few pranks ended prematurely with the victim escaping before they finished the bit; for instance, one woman squeezed past a Mook trying to box her in and fled into the streets. One had to be ended in an extreme hurry (with all the actors breaking character mid-sentence) due to the victim preferring to jump out of a window rather than stay. | |

Blood Bath: One prank set up the target as a new employee at a health spa "for professional clientele" that uses "very expensive ingredients." Along with female clients who come in for rejuvenation treatments is a list of younger women and their corresponding blood types. The exact scare prank involved the target walking in as one young woman is being bled over a bathtub that an older client was bathing in. | |

Your Head A-Splode | |
Scare Tactics (2003) / int_e0789c2a | comment |
Your Head A-Splode: One scare involved experimentation of a dog collar — with human subjects, including two lab techs and the victim. The draw of this collar is that it cannot be removed by force — it requires the remote control. During testing, a man enraged that his patent over it was stolen seizes control and murders the testers, including remotely causing the collar on one of them to explode. | |
