A couple who stayed at a Pennsylvania Target overnight for their YouTube channel is now facing up to seven years in prison for the prank.

Police said the YouTube couple, 24-year-old Charlotte Fischer, and 25-year-old Johnson Larose — dubbed "Saucy and Honey"— were arrested and charged with conspiracy and third-degree criminal trespassing, Fox 29 reported.

"I mean, no regrets just living life and having fun, it's kind of sad that all of this came out of it, we were expecting a fine nothing crazy," Fischer told the news station.

Police responded to the Target location in Chester County on Feb 21. after an alarm went off. Upon arrival to the scene, police said they did not find anything in the establishment, the outlet reported.

However, the following day security footage reviewed by employees showed the couple in the Target, prompting an investigation.

Fox 29 reported that the duo was filming a "24 Hour Overnight Challenge in Target" for their subscribers. The video shows the couple hiding boxes before employees left for the night and roaming around the dark store with their flashlights.

At one point in the video, the couple said they took a nap behind their box fort.

Although per their video, the couple said that they were going to remain in the store for 24 hours, they left the building through an exit at about 3 a.m, setting off the alarm, according to Fox 29.

Police said, Fischer and Larose then returned to the store about 8 a.m. to wrap up their video. The report noted that they did not take any merchandise from the store.

According to the report, their bail conditions restrict them from going to any Target locations in the state. The pair is set to appear at a hearing on March 24.
