Prank Encounters

[USZA]

EXCLUSIVE: Netflix has ordered eight episodes of Prank Encounters, a hidden-camera prank show executive produced and hosted by Stranger Things star Gaten Matarazzo. The show, which had been in the works for months, hails from Ben Silverman and Howard Owens’ Propagate. It’s set to launch later this year.

Each episode of this terrifying and hilarious prank show takes two complete strangers who each think they’re starting their first day at a new job. It’s business as usual until their paths collide and these part-time jobs turn into full-time nightmares.

The bottom of the actual article in the tweet, has The Onion trademark so I'm not sure of the veracity of the story. Other news media have picked it up though. Also checked Netflix's account but got nothing.

As for me, I sincerely hope that this show doesn't see the light, if it IS true.

Then the whole of social media is being trolled because this story has been running for three days now already.

So did the people get jobs or was that part of the prank?

Doubt the IMDB will list it if not real.
