Carrie: Telekinetic Coffee Shop Stunt

Extremely well done telekinetic prank for the upcoming remake of 1976 classic movie Carrie, makes unsuspecting coffee shop clients scream with terror in their eyes.

Fake walls, remote control tables, books with springs and pulleys were placed in a way that made the whole experience for the customers as real as it could get. Enjoy!
