I can't tell if this is witchcraft, demon possession, both, or just a REALLY bad ad idea.
The description of the Facebook group reads:
And now the Video. Make sure you are right with God first tho, else you are just inviting unnatural trouble:
I have no pity for the pacifist, socialist Swedes; and no matter how you spin it, it is never a good idea to be performing heathen and pagan ritual chants; but this ad goes too far to inflict upon anyone.
This recent ad directed by hotshot golden boy Johan Renck and starring leading lady Adina Fohlin isn't sending the [beauty] product flying off the shelves, instead it has the viewers running scared.
Or so around 90-thousand of them claim, as they have joined the facebook group "I'm afraid of the girl in the Apoliva ad". This story has hit all the major newspapers and even the Local decided it was Swedish news big enough to warrant a translation.

Those of us who have a TV and like to watch commercials/can't be bothered to reach for the remote are facing a problem. Apoliva has begun to run a commercial that is frightening. A woman singing a Nordic/Swedish folk song in freezing rain with lightning. I am creating this group for those of us who need somewhere to seek support and talk things out. It's only a matter of time before it creeps into our dreams and terrorises us in our sleep.
