The team leveraged Twitter’s Conversation Card ad format to allow users to Tweet a phrase to "summon" the Candyman. A custom listening mechanism was built to prompt the Candyman handle to respond to anyone who tweets the correct words.I dare you to say his name.Click below to tweet #Candyman 5 times in one post. @CandymanMovie will haunt your feed with an exclusive first look.
