I didn't watch it to the end maybe there was a funny part. A lot of people get creeped out about Halloween as it is. It's meant to be a fun night for little kids. This kind of prank will have people afraid to open their door.

Alex George, the copyright holder apparently had the video pulled. Oh well, anyone care to describe it?

It was a guy who made a outline of a little kid in copper pipe. Then he stuck a ball on top for a head and kids pants and shoes on the bottom. He then stuck a sheet over it with no eyeholes to emulate a ghost costume and a hand stuck out barely holding a pumpkin candy basket.

The guy put it on peoples porch and rang the bell and stood back and videotaped it. People would come to the door put candy in the basket and talk to it for minutes, the ghost never moves and no one ever figured it out except one little girl who was handing out candy.
I realize it is one of those things that you "have to be there" or see to appreciate the humor and reactions. I thought it was hi-larious watching these old ladies talking to a fake kid and it was a funny prank and not maliscious.
Too bad it was gone Harry I have a feeling you would have got a kick out of it.
