Advertising Gone Bad

For some reason, European advertising (especially those products related to doing your laundry) can be a little creepy. First there was the odd little blue man selling Comfort fabric softener in the UK. Now in France there are billboards featuring a 3D, ghost-like blonde girl suprised by her laundry detergent. Even worse, she looks like Heather O'Rourke, the "They're here" girl from Poltergeist. I'm sure the French don't remember "Carol Anne, Carol Anne." But please, come into the light and stop subjecting the general public to frightening images of eerie little people.
