As Kensington’s Little Baby’s Ice Cream readies to open its global headquarters at 2311 Frankford Avenue tomorrow, it has released a new commercial that, to be frank, kind of creeps us out.

The ad uploaded to You Tube yesterday, “This is a Special Time,” features an ice cream-covered man (we hope it’s ice cream) slowly extolling the benefits of the frozen treat while eating scoops from his own head as ice cream truck music tinkles eerily in the background.

Take a look:
