It's Halloween. The one time a year when it’s socially acceptable to scare the bejeezus out of people, put it on the internet and call it a car ad. Who doesn't wanna get in on that?

This was also the first video to have any kind of true "viral" success on Ford's YouTube channel. The media ran with it, a ton of people saw it, and it even earned AdWeek's Ad of the Day. It was the first piece of content on Ford's channel to reach a seven figure view count.
