==Live==
This song debuted live on the [[2013/07/26 Naeba, Japan|first night ]] of the [[Nine Inch Nails Live NIN 2013 Festival Tour]], and was played at most shows in 2013 and 2014. During the [[Tension 2013Tour]], this song featured backing vocals by [[Lisa Fischer]] tourand [[Sharlotte Gibson]]. "Came Back Haunted" was a rarity for the [[NIN 2017-2018|2017-2018 touring cycle]], appearing just three times. It returned to become a setlist regular for Act III of the [[Peel It Back Tour]] as a remixed version in collaboration with [[Boys Noize]], and usually being the final song for Act III. This version shares little resemblance to the album version, but is not currently known to be a preexisting Boys Noize song, as many of the other remixes for Act III are.

The "Came Back Haunted" [[Nine Inch Nails music videos|music video ]] was directed by [[David Lynch]] and was released on June 28, 2013. It uses a shortened version of the song that is exclusive to the video.
The video has been flagged as potentially seizure-inducing for viewers with photosensitive epilepsy, due to its use of strobe effects. It features herky-jerky shots of [[Trent Reznor]], wearing pancake makeup and lipstick, interspersed with other bizarre images. These typically Lynchian visuals include an image of a tick overlaid onto an image of a young ballerina, a seemingly disembodied and vaguely humanoid face reminiscent of something out of Lynch's ''Eraserhead'', a trio of glowing zoomed-in images of mouths sitting atop little dancing bodies, and an expanding cloud of dark gray smoke in the corner of a dark room.
The fully-produced video was preceded by an audio a visualizer video that was released by Vevo on June 6, 2013. It features a reel-to-reel tape deck playing the song, filmed from multiple angles. It was listed as "Came Back Haunted (Audio)". It was made for the purpose of providing internet video outlets with an official source of the audio.
