    First of all, this is a strange book. So it's not strange at all when an enormous talking cat with a soft spot for vodka, pistols, and chess, play many a joke on the unsuspecting public, including lopping the head off a critic of their magic show and only screwing it back on again when the audience protests.

    Rumpelstiltskin was terrible story. We all thought when he helped the poor miller's daughter weave straw into gold it was out of goodwill, and when he set out the conditions, k, he wasn't being all nice, but he was being fair. And you know the story... in order to free the woman of her debt, he posed such a difficult riddle that obviously no one could answer (Rumpelstintskin, reALLY?!!). But of course, the farmer's daughter and now Queen spied on him, got his name and broke the contract. Now who played who?

    Neil Gaiman's novel involves gods retold and Loki Liesmith wins points for his deceitful trickery. But unlike most of the pranks on this list that are kind of fun, Loki's pranks are far from silly — in fact, he uses his power to orchestrate births, deaths and colossal, destructive battles among the gods. A true troublemaker if we ever saw one! 10/10 would not invite to parties.

    Perhaps one of the more epic pranks over in this list (falling short of a full-out con). There are silly pranks involving blue hair dye and faked progress reports, but there's also the one where four students, in memory of a fellow classmate, hires a stripper during their school's speaker day. Let's just say everyone remembered that day.

    You must be thinking, wait, there were pranks in Jane Eyre? Yes - and it came from no one other than the Very Serious Mr. Rochester himself. Read it again and see if you can find it. He dresses up as a peculiar gypsy woman, fooling Jane by reading her fortune and asking about himself. A harmless prank in all honesty, but perhaps emotionally scaring, especially since he asked for Jane's true thoughts about him through a guise. This is one man who has no chill.

    Before Lindsay Lohan in The Parent Trap did the classic switcheroo, Viola and Sebastian in this classic Shakespearean tale already did it. The OG prankster duo (or maybe just Viola....) were the reigning sibling duo dressing up as one another to fool everyone they came in contact with. Of course that set up a lot of misunderstanding, but.... where's the fun if there isn't any?
