Just for Halloween of course, a van will tour around and park at random street corners. Horrible prolonged screams will emerge from within, suitably amplified. The windows will be blacked out, and no information or graphics will be present.
Once a suitably large and concerned audience has emerged
from their homes, or stopped on the street, the I Scream Van will trundle off to its next location.

Police really should respond if the noises are anything like a human cry of distress. Good title, but I'd try to think of a better idea to go along with it. |

Police could well be in on the joke. |

With the police and 911 operators being in on it, I could see this being a valid one time phsycology experiment about how often people will attempt to aid or call for help. If this was done on a widespread basis or more than one year in a row, as poeple learned about it they would simply be desensitized and become less likely to do something in a case where someone was really being abducted or assaulted. |

Scary is great for Haloween in the sense of suernatural / extraterestrial / creepy / disgusting, but I see no reason for using scary in the sense of apparent violent crime. If you want to be scared that way, watch a movie. |

[+] it could be made reasonably obvious that it's just a prank. |

Maybe. When I was a kid a group of three or four people in
my hometown used Halloween pranking as a pretense to
rob every empty house in a three block area. The only
detail I remember is that they were driving around in a
Halloween-decorated van and blasting Alice Cooper, tossing
toilet paper everywhere and being so conspicuous that they
were completely ignored. |

Probably wouldn't work today. |

(+) Most people wouldn't "get" it, but the one person
that does would be gobsmacked that someone went
through all that trouble. |

[jutta]! Long time no read. I can't really say
"welcome back" to your own site, but, ah, welcome
back! |

Ditto what Max said. Long time no contact. Good to
see you are still knocking about the place. |
