this weeks awesome business ideaSearches for “Haunted Car Wash Near Me” are up 950% this week on Google. It shows just how popular Halloween has become, and how a seemingly unrelated business can take advantage.

Basically drive-through car washes (the ones where you stay in the car) are hiring actors to dress up and scare patrons as the car makes its way through. They also get to charge a little  more than the traditional car washing fee, and customers are loving it!

It really is a brilliant idea because you have to get your car washed anyway, so why not turn it into a fun Halloween experience. It is also a great way for the car wash to get some free local publicity.

So, is there anything about your business that you can turn into a haunted experience? Why you’re at it, start thinking about Christmas!
