WATCH: Little boy has a priceless reaction to his own shadow

Oftentimes, children get scared by things that are new to them. Like this kid from Bangkok, Thailand whose priceless reaction to his own shadow was caught on camera.

The short video shows the moment a little boy notices a black, faceless formation on the floor following him wherever he goes. Alarmed, he takes a few steps back and forth in an attempt to get rid of the strange shape.

He runs in circles, lifts his feet off the ground but the figure appears to be chasing him. As soon as he turns his back on the light, the shadow appears in front of him, which scares him all the more.

Frustrated, he stops and lets out an ear-piercing scream.

The clip which was uploaded by Viral Hog has since garnered thousands of views and has been picked up by different news websites like The Daily Mail and Mirror.
