SuperCuts “The Conjuring” Halloween Ad?

It’s Halloween, so lots of cable movie channels are showing The Conjuring (among other horror movies); and in that movie, there’s a scene where one of the daughters gets dragged around the house by her hair by an unseen force, ending when Lorraine Warren takes a pair of scissors and cuts off the ends of her hair, severing the grip of the invisible demon ghost hair-pulling thingy.

So I thought it might make for a fun Halloween ad for a haircutting chain like SuperCuts to show this scene, or one like it made for the ad, and have the announcer say: “Is your haircut giving you problems?” (Or: “Not everyone happy with your haircut?”) Then they could suggest we come to SuperCuts to get a haircut everyone will like. (Or, they could show the same scene and say that’s one way a haircut can make your day. But for an easier, less scary way, go to SuperCuts. {Additionally, they could ask if you’re having a “bad hair day”, and say that SuperCuts can “save” you from the worst bad hair day you can imagine.})

This is the scene from The Conjuring I’m referring to:


(BTW: When the girl gets her hair cut to save her, I could totally see a teenager say: “You just ruined my haircut!”)
