The Drag-u-la has rolled into NATMUS for the Halloween season 🎃

Made famous from the 1960s TV series The Munsters, this custom hot rod is built to look like a driving coffin ⚰️

And yes, it DOES drive. Swipe to check out the video!

This hot rod will be here until November 1.

📸 Be sure to stop by on Halloween Day to get your picture taken with Grandpa Munster from 10am-3pm!
