To promote a haunted house attraction in Kitchener, Ont., a Suzuki Carry truck has been outfitted with vehicle graphics and accessories for zombie hunting, collection, containment and disposal.
The truck’s exterior features a zombie-themed package of vinyl graphics, a 1.8-m (6-ft) tall cage holding life-size zombie figures, rear-mounted weaponry and a replica Gatling gun. Inside the cab, a military-themed treatment includes seats and door panels reupholstered with camouflage fabric, a liquid crystal display (LCD) running a custom zombie-tracking Global Positioning System (GPS) application and a rigid truck bed liner for easy rinsing of blood and guts.
“The vehicle was conceived to promote the Haunted House of Horrors we run every October, but it has turned into something much greater,” says Shawn Gusz, who assembled and finished the truck in nearby Guelph, Ont. “I think it will really resonate with zombie and horror lovers.”
So, before Kitchener’s Halloween attraction, the truck will also appear at auto shows, ‘zombie walks’ and horror fan conventions across Canada and the northern U.S.
