Sunrise stars have been subjected to plenty of pranks on the breakfast show over the years.
And on Tuesday, hosts Natalie Barr and Mark Beretta got the fright of their life when staffers greeted them at the studio with an unpleasant surprise on Halloween.
In a hilarious video posted to Instagram, Natalie looked terrified as she arrived to the office and a creepy clown jumped out in front of her.
‘F**k. I hate you. I had a heart attack,’ she yelled.
Mark was also left shocked and speechless as the clown jumped out in front of him as he arrived to work.

The sports presenter yelled in fear as he was greeted by the masked staffer at the door’s entrance.
It comes after Mark confirmed his split with his wife Rachel after 22 years of marriage earlier this month.
The Sunrise star and his former partner, who married in 2001, confirmed they quietly parted ways in recent months in a statement.
‘At the start of the year, after a great deal of reflection and 22 years of marriage, Rach and I came to the conclusion that a separation was best for us,’ Beretta told Daily Mail Australia through a Seven spokesperson.
‘We remain good friends, and our two children and grandchild remain our focus and priority as we move forward with love, dignity, and respect.’
According to a new report, the presenter has been leaning on his Sunrise family for support during this difficult time.
