Yes, this is a sick viral campaign for a TV show, but it could be an interesting way to surprise a friend that's into horror films and all the gruel that is associated.

Dexter is a serial killer, and your friend is next. This personalized and somewhat scary news video is put together by you, hidden behind a phony viral video site, and shipped off to your friend who has no clue what's in store. This bloody promotion has been put together behind the folks at FX for a new show called Dexter. It's based on a novel about a boy who was adopted by a police officer and has a few homicidal tendencies.

Be prepared to get a slap from friends who don't appreciate a good scare.
