At Zürich main station, the upside-down Coca-Cola vending machine in an eighties style attracted teenagers with smoke and mysterious branches, complete with hands. Anyone brave enough to reach into the opening was rewarded with a special-edition Coca-Cola can covered in slime. A suitably creepy encounter.
