Spooky Snacks
As the leaves turn and the air chills, it’s officially spooky season. That means it’s time to snack with style and what better way than with limited-edition treats featuring our favorite eerie IPs? Dive into “Spooky Snacks,” where thrills and treats collide.
Fanta’s Horror Icons Take Over
Coca-Cola’s Fanta has teamed up with horror icons for an all-new Halloween drink lineup. This year’s collection puts some of the most recognizable characters right on the bottles and cans. Horror fans can sip on Chucky’s Punch, a bold fruit-punch flavor with a sour twist that’s brand new to the lineup. Alongside Chucky, you’ll spot Michael Myers on Pineapple, Freddy Fazbear on Orange (and Zero Sugar), The Grabber on Strawberry, and M3GAN on Grape, with some flavors appearing exclusively at theaters and theme parks. It’s a perfect mix of sweet, spooky, and collectible.
Stranger Things Snack Mania
With Stranger Things returning to Netflix this November, snack brands are already in full Upside Down mode. From Stranger Pizza Doritos Collisions, to retro Chips Ahoy! cookies with themed packaging, to Hawkins Lab Confetti CakeBites, the collabs keep coming. Even Eggo waffles are joining the party with new strawberry-flavored releases designed to honor Eleven’s favorite breakfast food. Fans can already grab Stranger Things pizzas in stores, and the rumor mill is buzzing with talk of even more snack collabs before the new season drops.
Jim Henson’s Boo Berry & Count Chocula
This fall brings back two of the most beloved spooky cereals—Boo Berry and Count Chocula—but with a special twist. In honor of Jim Henson’s legacy, these cereals are hitting shelves in collector’s edition boxes featuring Henson’s Muppets artwork. Each box has a retro feel that celebrates both the history of the cereals and Henson’s creative genius. It’s breakfast nostalgia with a collectible edge, perfect for display or digging in during a late-night horror movie marathon.
Wednesday Meals at Wendy’s
Wendy’s is joining the Halloween fun with limited-time Wednesday-themed meals. The promotion leans into the eerie charm of the Addams Family’s star, giving fans a bundled combo meal that usually includes a spooky twist on their classics—think black-packaged fries, a themed burger wrap, and a collectible drink cup featuring Wednesday artwork. For fans of the Netflix series, it’s a chance to take home more than just dinner; it’s an edible piece of fandom.
