'Rings' TV store prank left customers running in absolute terror

First you see her, then you scream and run away.

The new scary movie Rings, the third feature film in the Ring franchise, gets released next Friday, so, Paramount Pictures decided to try to get potential moviegoers excited about the movie by playing the ultimate prank: having a girl, dressed like the movie's villain Samara Morgan, crawl out of a TV and sneak up on customers. As you can imagine, almost everyone either screamed or ran out of the room with no hesitation.

Always, always, be on the lookout for long-haired girls crawling out of your TV.
