Scare Tactics Season 3 Volume 1 Ghosts in the Room
Scare Tactics is usually a set-up, hidden camera reality prank show that puts unsuspecting victims into terrifying situations, usually involving movie-style special effects and makeup that recreates horror movie clichés. The victims, generally four per episode, are set up by friends/family in tandem with producers.

The unsuspecting victims on the program were usually influenced to some location, either invited there by people they know (who were in on the act), or reporting for what they thought was a new job. Soon on many occasions they'd experience some kind of terrifying scene — similar to a strange monster, a terrible accident, or a violent crime being committed – all of which was staged while the victim was secretly being video recorded from multiple camera angles.



There are some instances where the victims are lured into the pranks on the promise of due to being on a fake reality show called "Fear Antics" which plays off like a show similar to MTV's Jackass but end with dire consequences. In Season 3, one of the contestants was lured into a fake show called "Dog Catchers", which was a parody of Cheaters. One additional fake show used to dupe the Scare Tactics victims is known as "Truthisodes," which is a generic conspiracy theory show that claims "the federal government is lying to you".



The pranks would end when the victim was completely terrified and someone would ask them, "Are you scared?" that many of them replied yes. They would frequently then get the reply, "You shouldn't be! You're on Scare Tactics!" Occasionally, the pranks have ended when the victims "get violent" with the actors pulling the prank, or the victim running out of the controlled environment the prank is played out in.
