This Haunted House Prank Carries an Important Message

Finding a new place in a tight housing market can be challenging. With fake landlords around, it is not uncommon that people get scammed. To raise awareness against this, lejebolig.dk wants to remind people that using their common sense is crucial in order not to get lured.

This is why lejebolig.dk has put #commonsense to the test by showing potential renters a flat, where all is not quite as it seems. In a newly released prank film, featuring an actor that plays a landlord, tenants are introduced to what they think could be the place of their dreams.

However, when the landlord leaves his guests alone for a few minutes, the flat soon turns into a “ghost house” where furniture moves and creepy sounds can be heard. The result is an entertaining film that raises awareness of a major issue in most of the big cities, where housing markets are tight.
