A man from Indiana, USA named Evan Zimmerman might take the cake for the best Halloween prank ever [2]. His wife, Sabrina, recently captured a video of him riding her bike around their neighbourhood dressed as Michael Myers [3] with a fake skeleton baby in tow — and it's no wonder it went viral.

In the clip we see Sabrina slowing down in her car, immediately recognising Evan and hilariously reading him the riot act. "Oh my god . . . what the hell are you doing?!" she says in the video. "Oh my god, are we these people now? Riding around with a skeleton baby in my bike cart? Seriously, get home, or I'm going to have you committed!"

After staring at Sabrina while she playfully berated him, Evan simply began peddling his wife's bike in the opposite direction again. Well played, indeed.

Evan, who doesn't break character once he transforms himself into the killer from the 1972 flick, Halloween, said he's always been mystified by Michael Myers. "There's something about Michael [4] with the white face and the way he walks," the 36-year-old father of three told Today. "He creeps people out more than anybody. I've been doing this costume since 2012, but this is the first year she recorded me."

He also explained that believe it not, most kids love him! "A lot of the children want their picture with me. Not all of them, but a majority do," Evan said. "I get a lot of requests from parents wanting me to scare their kids." (For the record, Evan steers clear of the elderly.)

So far, the video has been viewed more than five million times, and while I agree that Evan is hilarious from afar, I certainly wouldn't want to spot him standing outside my window come Halloween night!
