So what might we expect in the future? Well technology is beginning open some intriguing possibilities. I remember as an 11 year old having a tough time convincing someone in my high pitched voice that I was working on the electric lines and wanted to see if their refrigerator was running. With some modern assistance, such as MorphVOX a voice changing program from Screaming Bee, a kids chance of pulling off such a prank are greatly increased.
MorphVOX when combined with computer to phone services such as Skype-Out or Yahoo Messenger, enable one to change their voice to a different age, gender or even unnatural spirits. This opens the possibilities for a whole new level of pranks. Imagine a St. Patrick s Day phone call from a leprechaun, or calling your girlfriend on Halloween with the distorted voice of a child ghost. For the less cruel, how about a call to your kid from the Easter bunny?
So next time you hear sounds like a large gruff man asking about your refrigerator, just remember it might be a couple of kids using the latest in technology for an old prank.
