Door hanger flyers serve a wealth of practical needs. They can be used for commercial advertising, friendly notifications, or privacy requests. At NextDayFlyers, we specialize in providing durable custom door hanger flyers for businesses of all sizes, but we have found that these tools are only as effective as the message behind them. For instance, let\u2019s say that you want to be left alone in your room. A simple \u201cDo Not Disturb\u201d might get the message across, but if you want your privacy to be absolutely ensured, you\u2019ll have to get a bit more creative.<\/p>\n

Perfect for those people who highly value their privacy, or just as a bit of a giggle for the Halloween season, here are few ideas for privacy signs that are guaranteed to give pause to any potential intruders.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

Contrary to what you may have been told, full-grown chimps are actually not the friendliest of primates. If you are to encounter such an animal in your daily life, your experience may be less like Bedtime for Bonzo and more like Rise of the Planet of the Apes (after the apes escape from their prison and go berzerk). If you plan to step through this door, you better bring plenty of bananas.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n\"Creepy

\n

If given the choice between being locked in a room with an aggressive chimp or a smiling clown, most people would probably choose the aggressive chimp. Whether or not clowns deserve their macabre reputation is up for debate, but it\u2019s hard to deny that there\u2019s something inherently chilling about them. Maybe it\u2019s the painted-on smile, maybe it\u2019s maniacal laugh, or maybe we\u2019ve all just been damaged by films like Stephen King\u2019s It, House of 1,000 Corpses, and Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Sweet dreams.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n

No, seriously, why do people keep dying in this room? Is the demon that dwells within? Or the masked killer who lived here as a child and now returns for revenge every Halloween? Come to think of it, it\u2019s probably just the asbestos dripping from the ceiling. But hey, as long as it keeps unwanted guests away\u2026<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n\"Ebola

\n

Anytime you want to ward off intruders, just exploit the latest national concern. It\u2019s a guaranteed strategy for success. Whether it\u2019s SARS, Mad Cow Disease, H1N1, or even the newfangled Ebola craze, you\u2019re sure to send your in-laws running for the hills. And if someone does try to enter despite the sign, just cough as loud as you can. That should take care of it.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n\"Fiery
\n

\n

When clowns, chimps, and terminal diseases prove ineffective as deterrents, it\u2019s time to take things to the next level. Fun fact: Anyone who steps through this infernal door is immediately greeted by 72 hipsters with unprescribed eyeglasses and inappropriately unseasonal scarves who prattle on with endless stories about why their taste in music is far superior to yours. Proceed with caution.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\n \n \n\t\n\n\n\n\"Funny

\n

I believe that this 12-step group was founded by Yosemite Sam, and it continues to grow by leaps and bounds. If you need to interrupt one of their meetings, your best bet is to gently knock on the door and then dive out of the way as quickly as you can.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Scorpions are irrefutable proof that real evil exists in this world. And don\u2019t you ever forget it.<\/p>\n<\/div>
