Celebrity KC Montero had shared on his Instagram page an 11-second video clip which showed the LED billboard presenting an ad for the Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather Jr. fight. Then, suddenly, it shifted to what appeared to be a silhouette of a girl on a swing.
Back then, Lloyd Tronco, who works for billboard ads provider OOH Resource, stated that they were still “verifying and investigating” the “girl on a swing” clip.
Well, now, the mystery has been solved.
“The creepy ‘girl on a swing’ clip was actually part of the promotions for Binhi (The Seed), a new horror indie flick directed by Pedring Lopez,” reports Oliver Bayani in Adobo Magazine.
The report noted: “Lopez, who is also the managing director of Welovepost, confirmed that the mystery billboard is part of an elaborate marketing campaign for the film, which has been ongoing for around a month.”
The film had a screening last May 14. It stars Mercedes Cabral, Roxanne Barcelo, and Joem Bascon.
