That fucking poltergeist advert during BGT breaks

[Pantone363]

They must know that lots of children stay up to watch BGT. Its an advert for a TV programme about poltergeists in a house with two scared kids in bed.

AIBU to think they should advertise it some other time or are my DC being overly sensitive? DD in particular hates in

That's the sort of thing that leaves children gibbering and unable to sleep for years. I remember similar from when I was a child.

Ghostwatch. Pipes. That's all I'm saying.

Was Ghostwatch that mock-up with Sarah Greene? That wasn't scary!

Does anyone remember the fallout from Ghostwatch? They did a special studio audience based program where members of the public could shout at the producers for scarring them and complaining that they didn't realise it was fake

One woman wrote in, furious that her husband had shat himself with fright and demanded the bbc replace his trousers. They were new you see

Didn't think it was that scary, I've seen more frightening trailers for Doctor Who. Wasn't the Enfield situation completely discredited? It was years and years ago it was supposed to have happened.

(Will watch for the magnificent Timothy Spall, though!)

Ghostwatch was scary when you were 11 years old and missed the start so thought it was real.

Fecking pipes . I didnt see it we ff adversts but it shouldmt be on before9

There was a film last year called conjouring or something the ad was hands clapping out of the dark i shit a brick dh thought it was hysterical me not so much.

Normally I'm a wimp but the Enfield trailer didnt scare me or DD. It's late at night I cant stand watching the ads. Theres a new horror out called Unfriended.

Well I've just seen that ad on Sky Living and its not even 10am.
