Caution: Scary Content!!

At some point in your life you will have no doubt been sent an email from a friend or they have sent you a link saying "check this video out, its really funny!" or "check this video out, it's really cool!" etc, etc, and as they are a reputable source you would be inclined to go and have a look and see what they're talking about. The video will be a short clip and you'll wait to see where it is going than BOOOMM a horrible creepy face will appear, usually a clown or a scary masked person and you will no doubt let out a yelp or throw your laptop up in the air. Most famously demonstrated in 2006 when what was supposed to be a car advert was actually just a prank and a scary screaming zombie appears at the end!!

Car Advert (watch at your peril!)

Another famous example of this would be a clip on a famous American show called Larry King Live, which is showing you around Michael Jackson's mansion after his death and you see a shadow walk across the hall, the rest i will leave up to you to go and see the outcome, although you might already have an idea what happens?!

Michael Jackson's Ghost?!

Thankfully these kind of scary videos have gone into decline now and their popularity peaked in 2006, there is only so long these types of videos can circulate before people start to click on to what is going to happen next!
