The main character of the video, made specifically for the Singapore branch of IKEA, is a little boy, Danny, on a tricycle, who rides around the empty, dimly lit premises of the hypermarket until he meets the ominous “twins” in blue dresses.

Unlike the horror film The Shining, to which the scene refers , in the promotional video the meeting ends with a happy ending, and the “twins” turn out to be the boy’s parents. The video ends with the announcement that IKEA Singapore has extended its opening hours until late in the evening.
