Forget the clown sightings of 2016—the new movie It has sparked new ideas to scare the living hell out of people. Just be really warned of the possible consequences.

Youtuber Ashley Ortega pulled a horrifying prank on her roommate Corie after she returned from seeing the adaptation of Stephen King's novel, because what are friends for, right?

Ortega craftily placed red balloons in the living room before hiding in Corie's room in a full-blown clown costume and jumping out to scare her. Corie freaked out, wrestled for a bit, before she reached for a taser gun in her nightstand...

Moral of the viral video: probably don't prank your friends with clown costumes and let's all channel our inner Corie if ever faced with a horror film situation.
