Darcey-Ray Flavell-Hudson

Actor [Te Arawa, Ngāpuhi, Whakatohea]

Darcey-Ray Flavell-Hudson won local fame after the runaway success of a public safety campaign that saw him eating ghost chips, and persuading a mate not to drive drunk. The advertisement attracted two million plus YouTube hits. Rotorua-raised, Flavell-Hudson had already acted in 2004 short Kerosene Creek and hit movie Boy. The long-time drummer went on to support singer Stan Walker in feature film Mt Zion.

That's cool, that's mean ... it's good to know people are taking heed of what the ad was trying to say. Darcey-Ray Flavell-Hudson, on the Ghost Chip commercial becoming one of NZ’s most popular educational campaigns
