DM Pranks is the name Matteo, an Italian joker, uses for his prank videos. According to our original profile he has been shooting pranks since he was in college and has picked up the tricks that made him one of the biggest forces in the genre. Italian press agrees on the name: Vice Italy and DailyBest both write about Matteo Moroni, known as DM Pranks, and describe him as the first to make the killer clown kind of prank that later spread around the world.
What the crew is known for
The signature is the scare prank. The crew built the Killer Clown series, the Psycho Witch Scare, a big-budget zombie infection scare and a demon child in a mask and nightdress. Our old write-ups called them extreme and hardcore. Matteo has also set strangers up with funny and rude practical jokes and, now and then, something more thought-provoking.

A note on copying them
These are staged productions with planning, costumes and locations chosen for effect. Scaring strangers can cause panic and injuries, so keep any scare of your own to friends who agreed to it. The Scary Sounds board has spooky audio you can use safely.
