'Tis the season for hilarious pranks involving Christmas wrapping paper.

A couple of friends from Kilcock decided that they had a very productive way to pass the time this week after their housemate Jack went off for work, leaving his key in the door. To teach him a lesson to be more careful, Niall Maher, Adam O'Reilly, Cathal McNally and David Goode decided to get quite a bit of Christmas wrapping paper and give the room a touch of festive spirit.

Originally posted on reddit, they said that this wasn't the first time that they'd done something similar to his room, having once turned it in to a giant fort using his clothes and mattress, but if he doesn't learn his lesson then they've got big plans for what they want to do next. We're waiting with baited breath...
