Practical joke #1: Werewolf stares shocks awakening frosh

My son Tyler, a freshman in college, freaked out his sleeping roommate recently. Imagine a very small room shared by two, barely an aisle between the beds and desks. In a recent care package I included one of our favorites, the Werewolf window poster, drooling and glaring with his yellow eyes, seemingly ready to pounce on his next victim!

So in the middle of a recent dark night, Tyler crept over Jake's bed and hung the Werewolf poster on the wall directly above the foot of Jake's bed. The joke worked perfectly, Jake awoke in the night, looked up at the glaring wolf, and let out a good scream!

All that and it wasn't even backlit!
