\"The<\/a>The mischievous April Fool<\/a> of April 1st, the master of paranormal pranks, is about to make his centuries old annual planetary pranking rounds upon humanity.\u00a0 Since 2011 The April Fool has been personally gracing Mystic Investigations with his presence by vandalizing our website<\/a>, and pulling practical jokes on our team members.\u00a0 All of which are thankfully harmless for the most part, and not permanent unlike the truly malevolent April Anti-Fool <\/a>who makes his abominable appearance on April 2nd.\u00a0 The April Fool’s origins are thought to lie in the Norse Trickster God Loki<\/a> but complete evidence is lacking thus far.<\/p>\n

The April Fool’s trademark giggles are unmistakable, and are the precursor to the plight of being pranked.\u00a0 Embarrassing people fuels the malicious merriment of his harlequin heart, and only makes him supernaturally stronger.\u00a0 If faced with his cackling clowning on April Fool’s Day it’s best to respond by laughing at yourself.\u00a0 This will diffuse some of his joking joviality, and possibly prevent the Fool from plaguing you with further pranks. Donning displeasure, anger, and embarrassment will only egg him on further.\u00a0 Unfortunately in the heat of the moment some of us here don’t take our own advice.<\/p>\n

If you’re someone easily mortified by such blatant buffoonery, and you wish to avoid these \"Harlequin-Flower-April-Fool-Repellent\"<\/a>supernatural shenanigans then there is something you can do.\u00a0 The only known effective deterrent for the April Fool is the Harlequin flower<\/a>, aka Sparaxis tricolor.\u00a0 Having the flowers strewn about your home, and worn on your person has displayed delightful repellent properties.\u00a0 Although naturally growing plants are best.\u00a0 Harlequin essential oils, colognes, and perfumes are terrific defensive tactics to use against the April Fool.\u00a0 Offensive measures include incorporating the flowers essence into holy water or even unholy water to literally spray at the joking jester if you’re able to spot him.\u00a0 Although not demonic in nature the holy waters purity will aid in repelling him as his supernatural heart does have a minor malicious intent.\u00a0 Unholy water could possibly target his jovial joking nature that doesn’t want to hurt anyone physically, or scar someone for life mentally.<\/p>\n

Oddly enough Jester or Clown dolls<\/a>\"\" have been known to endear the April Fool to a potential prank victim.\u00a0 Particularly children but the Fool rarely visits his special brand of tomfoolery on kids unless they’re really rotten bully types.\u00a0 Those who join in the April Fool’s revelry with their own pranks<\/a> can sometimes avoid the wacky wrath of the festive Fool.\u00a0 Although there is a fine line where he’s tempted to turn the tables on the joker in order to give them a taste of their own mischievous medicine.<\/p>\n

We here at Mystic Investigations are battening down the hatches as we anticipate our annual visit from the April Fool.\u00a0 Despite our countermeasures the April Fool somehow strikes against us each year. We apologize in advance for any disruptions to our website, along with anything found to be offensive, tomorrow.\u00a0 With the Amazon Warrior Adonia being our guest for the past handful of days it will be interesting to see if he dares to mess with her.\u00a0 Especially considering the Goddesses Amazon women have in their favor.\u00a0 Perhaps this year the April Fool will leave us alone!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
