A couple of days ago a few Housemates had the House in an uproar when they played a prank on the rest of the Housemates. The prank was called the Duvet Heist and the culprits were Neo, Ozo and Nengi. All three connived to steal the duvets of the rest of their fellow Housemates. This got us thinking about what other pranks the Housemates could pull to make their stay in the House a lot more fun and full of mischief. We came up with five pranks that could spark things off.
ICYMI: Watch the Duvet Heist here
Hide the food
Not just any food, but one in particular. The one the Housemates can’t live without. If you are an avid fan of the Lockdown Geng, you already know that food is Indomie noodles. The prank here is to raid the kitchen and take every single pack of Indomie and go hide it. We would love to see the faces of the Housemates when they step into the kitchen and can’t find their favourite meal. You thought the duvet had them upset? Wait till you see how rattled they will be without their noodles.
Pretend to exhibit symptoms of COVID-19
Now, this is a bit extra but totally worth it! This prank may take a couple of days to bring to fruition, but whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well. One of the Housemates will have to pretend to be ill and with each passing day fake a symptom of COVID-19 to scare the other Housemates. This prank will take a lot of dedication, but the end result will have the House totally stunned.
Have the Housemates gather for a fake guest
Only the Head of House can pull this off. Shortly after being called in by Biggie, the HoH will come to announce to the Housemates that Biggie told all of them to dress up in their Sunday best and gather in the lounge to welcome a guest. After getting dressed and seated patiently, the HoH can then proceed to break the prank to them. We'd love to be in the HoH's shoe when he breaks the news though.
Ghost beneath
This is kind of tough and will require patience. For this trick, a Housemate will go hide beneath the bed of another Housemate just as the Housemate is about to sleep. The hidden Housemate will then proceed to start tapping the bed from underneath and making spooky sounds. The only drawback here is after everyone has had their laughs and the Housemate on the bed refuses to get up so the Housemate hiding can get out. Yikes.
Hide the socks
Some things might be little but the moment they are gone, you will notice them. Take socks for example. You hardly ever notice till they go missing and you are in a state of panic. The same thing should apply when someone steals the Housemates socks. If the Housemate is feeling generous, he could just settle for a piece instead of the pair. It would be fun watching the Housemates go about wearing mismatched socks.
Pranks can be fun especially when done right. The rule is to not go overboard and have the prank turn into an altercation. The housemates took the last prank well, hopefully, they will take other pranks in the House just as well. Now, we just have to find who will initiate the next prank.
