Scary Advert in Last Night's Eviction Show

Did anyone see the advert last night showing a terrifying little girl with long dark hair stood in a car park or something.
I first noticed it at 9.30pm on Channel 4 during Million Pound Drop, but then it was also on during the second or third ad break of the live eviction show (sky plussed). They kept showing flashes on the girl between the adverts themselves and she did things like wave and put her thumb up. She looked kind of like the girl from The Ring. Very very scary.
I didn't catch what it was about because my 10 year old son freaked out and started screaming and crying. I know he shouldn't have been watching past the watershed, but tbh it freaked me right out too and I'm 29.
Anyone got any clue what it was about and therefore when it's going to end?!

I don't care if it's past the watershed or not, in my opinion it is wrong that they should air that. Too freaky!
I'm genuinely a bit scared to watch 4 or 5 tonight.
But no, it has no relevance to any of the ads and just appears inbetween all the other ads at around 42 minutes.
Very freaky indeed. And I've no idea what it's supposed to signify.
I was watching it by myself and thought the girl was gonna step out of the TV and merk me or something.. LMAO
If it was advertising it would have some sort of name or something! It's so annoying. As someone else has said we needed to rewind a few times to make sure it was in fact an advert, and there wasn't a scary girl haunting our TV.
It might not have been a car park. I was too busy comforting my son to notice for sure.
I'm too scared to google paranormal activity 3 incase the website goes freaky on me, plus my sons are in the room. Does the girl in it have long dark hair and sunken black eyes?
No not to my knowledge.
It's not the girls what are freaking in it anyway it's about 2 girls haunted by a ghost.
Really? :eek:
Well it's certainly got us all talking about it.:o
Thanks for the heads up. Just found this article:

SCARY BE WARNED..LOL
Thanks....but I'm well freaked out now :eek:
Speak for yourself amigo. I almost pooped my pants and I aint no child.. lol
Job done then!
For those with children...this is cleared for post 7.30pm...so get your complaints to the ASA ready now
I didn't think it was scary, cool but not scary. But maybe it should be post watershed. I can see a 6/7/8yr old having probs going to bed after seeing it :eek:
Cleared for a 7.30pm slot? If I was a parent of young children, I'd want this to be after the watershed. That ad is sure to give a lot of children nightmares before going to bed. :eek:
Not horrifyingly out-freaking.
That ad is aversion therapy.
