Time Out says

Get behind the wheel of this creepy, kooky, mysterious and spooky hearse inspired by The Addams Family. Ahead of the new Netflix series Wednesday, you can rent a custom 1950 Cadillac wagon—with all sorts of macabre details—and drive it all over L.A.

The Turo listing for the car comes from Wednesday herself (“it’s been customized to suit the dubious taste of my parents”) but in reality the wagon is a West Coast Customs creation. The local repair shop has given the vehicle a red, glowing grill insert, a vulture hood ornament, bat wing side view mirrors and spider web window coverings.

Since this is an actual car from the ’50s, there’s one very important detail to know before you rent it: It has a manual transmission only, so you’ll need to know how to drive stick (and Wednesday warns “if you ride the clutch or grind the gears our faithful driver, Lurch, will hunt you down”).

You can book the rental on Turo for $13 a day for dates beginning November 23 (the same day the series premieres). The pickup spot is just south of Downtown L.A., and each reservation comes with 200 miles per day.
