Dare to Scare

🏆 5x GOLD Winner at Muse Awards by Clio 🏆

The best part of Halloween is scaring the sh*t out of people. So when Party City wanted to make a statement for their biggest season, we decided to get darkby scaring the sh*t out of people. Using their product catalog and a crew of actors, we set up nightmarish scenarios and pranked unsuspecting people to show viewers that Party City is the new home for all things Halloween.

In total, we shot 3 scenes that went live through the power of paid social (across Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest) – each focused on different products and scary situations. Whether it was a zombie infested waiting room, or a literal elevator to hell, we took full advantage of Party City’s prosthetics, animatronics, costumes, and more to catch people by surprise and encourage our viewers to do the same.
