The third annual Zombie Car Wash in Toronto saw its largest turnout this year. This spooky and goolish event takes place every year in hopes of raising money for the Zombie Walk, which will be taking place on October 20th, 2012. It is a great way for community members to get together and have some fun, and best of all it's right before Halloween.
Instead of going through a traditional car wash, drivers got to experience blood gushing all over the place, and creepy faces peering into their windows.
Themed events are ideal for charity and fundraising occasions as they provide an out-of-the ordinary experience that encourages participation. Due to the popularization of Zombies, this phenomenon has spread to New York, Vancouver, Ottawa, Melbourne and several other cities across the globe.
