Jamaican legend explains why Asafa Powell's career as a track athlete was short-lived

This unique event brought the pulse-pounding atmosphere of a horror movie to life as participants faced off against Twisty the Clown from American Horror Story, the terrifying Nun from The Nun II, and the creepy Ghost from The Grudge.
The twist however is that each of these chilling villains was portrayed by a professional athlete, blending physical prowess with a bone-chilling ambiance to keep participants on their toes.
Alongside Russell, Matt James, known from The Bachelor and his marathon-running background and professional football player Emily Sonnett took on villainous roles, each one dressed in full costume and ready to chase the runners.
The Hulu special takes viewers through the runners' experience as they encounter their fears head-on.
Russell can be seen in the teaser trailer chasing down participants in a full blood chilling costume, catching up to the competitors easily.
