~~[[K-fee commercials|In April 2005]], a German beverage company named~~ '''~~K-fee~~''' ~~released nine 20-second long television commercials as part of their ''Wide Awake'' campaign~~ to ~~advertise their coffee drink. These commercials have been heavily criticized for their content and many feel that~~ the ~~adverts are very uncommercial and upsetting, though their shocking visual is built to simulate~~ the ~~effect~~ that the ~~product has~~ on ~~the viewer~~.

'''Jingle Bells Reversed''' was a [[screamer]] [[Flash]] [[animation]] created by Daniel Fowler and was originally found on [[Newgrounds]] in 2004. The original animation was deleted but added to the [[DeviantArt]] [[website]] by the original owner (under the alias: "Fhashstark") with a description claiming that he's the owner of the animation. [[Jeremy Winterrowd]] also featured this screamer on his website: "[[Winterrowd.com]]". A yellow version of this game can be found on Ebaumsworld and was later posted to Y8.com, a popular flash game website.

The ~~commercials consist of peaceful scenes, such as a car driving down a grassy hillside to soothing music~~. ~~However, at some point in~~ the ad, the ~~scene gets briefly interrupted by either a zombie or a gargoyle screaming at the camera~~, ~~followed by the company's slogan~~ and ~~the product.~~

The animation starts with an excerpt from the famous Christmas song [[wikipedia:Jingle Bells|''Jingle Bells'']] playing forward. Following the first extract, the same song was played backward, and a color-inverted [[GIF]] of Daniel Fowler, the author, making a weird face flashes with a high-pitched, hilarious-sounding scream about three-quarters of the way through the excerpt.

K-~~fee received a lot~~ of ~~complaints from their viewers, and soon after that~~, the ~~ads stopped being aired on television.
