Sasha Pieterse: Show secrecy was ridiculous

Sasha Pieterse says the secrecy surrounding 'Pretty Little Liars' season finale was "ridiculous".

The 18-year-old actress portrays Alison DiLaurentis in the show and admits finding out the truth about her character's mysterious disappearance - that her mother had buried her alive - came as a huge shock to her.

She told E! News: "That was so twisted! They kept that finale script so under wraps it was ridiculous. We heard rumors, we heard little things, little bits. But when I actually read it, I was like, 'You have got to be kidding me!' Actually, I must admit though, my first thought about it was like, 'Oh no, I have to be in a grave again!' but they did it very well, and it was completely shocking."

Sasha now can't wait for season five of the show because it offers a new dimension to her character.

Asked what can be expected from the next series, she said: "Alison coming back in their lives is ridiculous in the best way possible, and I think the writers have done a really great job. Now we get to do a lot of fun stuff because we've never encountered this before. This is not a flashback -- it's current time and I get to wear current clothes. I'm very excited, I couldn't be more happy about that.

"I think it's going to be so much fun. I can't wait to see how they incorporate just regular civilians. You know what I mean? What are people's reactions going to be to someone they thought was dead --twice. I mean there was like two memorials and all this stuff. It's ridiculous!"
