#SNOWMAN PRANK SERIES#

I would have to say the Jersey Shore punch.ģ03: The snowman tends to move up and down when it seems like he’s laughing. JL: Scaring a group of guys and making them scream like girls makes us laugh the most (1:03 in this one).ģ03: When/what scene from what video is your favorite scare of all time? JL: We film mostly in Providence and sometimes travel when invited to events or to collaborate with another YouTube Prankster.ģ03: Who are your favorite groups of people to scare? Also on Dec 30th 2012 we will be on NBC at 8 pm for a documentary. JL: The media loved it! My clips have been on Jay Leno, Inside Edition, The Rhode Show, Ridiculousness, Dick Clarks Bloopers, TruTV, Travel Channel, and local new channels 6,10, and 12 (R.I.). JL: The very first video went viral and at that point I knew I was onto something so I created a channel specifically for the snowman prank and Branded it. JL: The first video was shot in January 2011 on Thayer St in Providence R.I.ģ03: What was the response to that first video? Not much has changed.ģ03: When did you shoot your first Freaky the Scary Snowman video? JL: As a kid I always got a kick out of scaring people. I told my uncle, Tom DePetrillo, of the idea and he suggested to create a snowman like a statue.ģ03: Were you ever afraid of snowmen or why did you choose to have a “scary” snowman? I wanted to do something with a snowman, something along the lines of being built in a snowman and jumping out of the snow to scare someone.

Jason Lichtenberger: I had a series of videos with pop up screamer where a viewer would be watching a ghost video, for example, and something would jump out of the screen and scare the viewer. He may look like a life-size Frosty from behind, but once he turns around, an evil grin will force the worst of words from your mouth.īut where did Freaky come from? 303 was fortunate enough to get a last minute interview with Jason Lichtenberger, creator of Freaky the Scary Snowman, to hear where these obsessive scare videos come from, and learn what his favorite scare of all time is. If you haven’t already been introduced, meet Freaky the Scary Snowman. But beware, and make sure you have hours of battery left on your computer – you’re about to form a new addiction.

While flipping through the most viewed videos of the week, I was introduced to one of the most addictive collection of funny, yet startling pranks. It seems that every time I visit YouTube, a hilarious new video is trending – and last week was no exception.
