Guy Wins This Years ‘Easter April Fools’ By Pranking His Girlfriend And Her Facial Expression Says It All

BoredPanda staff
This year brought the happy coincidence of Easter Sunday falling on April 1st, or April Fool’s Day. So instead of your work colleagues or classmates falling victim to your fiendishly ingenious pranks, it was family and significant others’ that were the target this time.
Speedflying Scotsman Chris Erwood got into the spirit of both occasions by presenting his girlfriend Alicia with a perfectly disguised prank-egg. With an impressively well thought-out and well executed effort, Chris shows us how, with a handy step-by-step guide, to construct the egg for “the arachnophobic in your life.” Was it long in the planning? “Not long!” Chris told Bored Panda. “I’d joked about doing something like this a while back but I wasn’t set on it until the middle of last week.”
Alicia really is arachnophobic, and this prank is pure evil genius. “I screamed and dropped them all over the table and floor,” she explained. “I know there are some spiders that I’ve probably missed picking up, so it’s only a matter of time before our cats start playing with them and depositing them in the bed.”
“It’s the gift that keeps on giving”
The couple have been together for a little over 3 years, and clearly love messing with each other a little. According to Alicia, Chris has a track-record for this kind of thing. “Every year I fall for the same spider-themed pranks, I am actually in fear for next April fools day!” She told us. “How do I go about getting a holiday banned?!” She admits that despite it all, she does find it hilarious, and it’s all just good fun.
However we are sure that revenge is on the cards, and Chris has some mad trouble headed his way. “This is probably the worst one so far, it was definitely one of his more creative pranks,” Alicia told Bored Panda. “I already have a plan to get him back.”
“I’m just biding my time.”

What do you think ?
I thought it was great but with a title of "the winner of April fools and a master pranker" I expected more then an egg filled with plastic spiders.
I have to agree..
I am a little terified of my evil mind. Before reding all, I tought there were going to be real spiders there or at least a real dead spider. I am glad I wasn't righ, as that would have been too creepy.
Hehehe I feel so popular
I bet if you had opened that egg and saw what she saw you'd feel differently. Because you have to shake the egg a little to open it, those little suckers were moving when she first saw them. I don't care who you are, all of your hairs would have standing at attention.
I am a magician and I use plastic spiders in my show. Sometimes it scares people, sometimes it doesn't. I am surprised that someone couldn't come up with something a little more innovative. None the less a good effort.
Oh boy, as an arachnophobic my self, if the trial does come up, I promise to be her lawyer, and then not only get her a non guilty ruling, but also a job promotion to her and her whole family
Oh, come on, they don't even look like real spiders!
It is the startle effect that makes a persons vision go blurry.
@Kiahna Yeah actually, some people with very severe phobias are scared of things that look like the object of phobia(people with snake phobia can't touch worms,etc.), or some can't even look at their photographs. But I'm sure he wouldn't do this if it was that bad so don't worry!
That doesn't really matter. They look like spiders don't they? People with Arachnophobia are TERRIFIED of spiders. This is actually a bit if a cruel prank if you ask me.
I don't think she is arachnophobic. If she was, the reaction would be really, REALLY different.
That's just too much effort for me. #ReasonsWhyIamSingle
