No. Flip Effects only activate when the card is flipped, which will happen when Flip Summoned, or when the monster is attacked, or when an effect specifically directs it to be turned face up. Simply destroying a face-down monster, or removing it from play, does not 'flip' it, so Flip Effects will not activate.

Is a face-down monster flipped face-up if a card effect targets it?
No, because it never gets flipped face-up. You can activate Raigeki Break to destroy an opponent's face-down Man-eater Bug without any monster on the field getting destroyed.
When you attack a face down flip effect card how does the battle play out?
The damage step will go - flip the defending monster, compare ATK and DEF, activate and resolve the flip effect (regardless of whether the monster is considered destroyed by battle bay a stronger attacker) then if the flip monster was considered destroyed, now it actually goes to the graveyard.
In the Yu-Gi-Oh Can you flip summon monsters with more than 5 stars?
Yes, if you tribute Set them from hand, or flip them face-down using the effect of another card.
Can you Flip Summon a monster in Main Phase 1 if it was flipped face-down by a card effect also during Main Phase 1 in Yu-Gi-Oh?
The short answer is no. The long answer is: When your face-down defense position card is attacked, only then does it go to face-up defense position. All other times, when you flip it yourself, it goes into face-up attack position.
Can you use hysteric party more then once?
'Activate' has two meanings when referring to continuous cards. To 'activate' the card is to flip it face-up from being set. To 'activate the effect' is to have a continuous card already face-up, and use a reusable effect on it. (a recent ruling allows you to 'activate the effect' once on the same chain link as 'activating the card', but that's not relevant here). For Hysteric Party, the cost of discarding one card is the cost you pay to activate the card, ie, to flip Hysteric Party face-up. Once you have done this, you cannot discard another card to summon Harpies again, it is not a reusable 'activate the effect' card, like Royal Oppression.
Does a flip-effect still activate when is destroyed by card effect?
No, flip effect activate when the card is flipped, which will be by Flip Summon, or being attacked, or flipped by an effect. Simply being destroyed while face down, will not 'flip' the monster.
What if a flip affect monster card is destroyed by a trap or spell card does the flip effect work?
No. The only time it flips in being destroyed is when it is attacked by a monster. The flip effect will only work if the monster says "FLIP" in all caps and does not say if it is destroyed in battle that its Effect will activate.
Does a flip effect activate when the monster is destroyed by the effect of another monster?
Flip effects will activate if flipped manually by Flip Summon, or when attacked. Also must include "FLIP" in all caps for its effect to activate, or say 'when this card is turned face-up'. For example if a monster such as Guardian Sphinx is flipped face up by an attack or an effect (spell, trap or monster), the effect does not activate, because only a Flip Summon triggers it, not a generic flip. When a card effect destroys a face-down monster, the monster is destroyed and flip effect isn't activated because the monster never flips. Mystic Swordsman Lvl. 4 destroys the monster it attacks without flipping it, so a Flip Effect monster attacked by it will not get its flip effect. To summarize, if a FLIP effect monster is attacked while face down, then it will activate. But if it's destroyed by a card effect while face down then it won't activate. Some card effects let you flip monsters face up and let the flip effect activate, like book of taiyou. But others, like ceasefire don't let it activate. If it says 'when this card is flipped face up' then you have to do that manually on your own turn.

Does a monster being in face up defence potion affect how their effect works?
No, it shouldn't, unless it says something along the lines of: "if this card is in face up attack position; ...<add effect here.>" In most cases, it doesn't change, though. If it is a flip effect, it means that the monster must be flip summoned to make the effect work. In other words, play the card in face down defense position, then flip it over to face up attack position on your next turn. Card flip effects are activated if the card is attacked while in face down position.
