Halloween Doritos That Are as Black as Night!
Before Burger King introduced the Black Whopper last year, Japan’s BK released their own all-black burger dubbed the KUR. We washed it down with Mountain Dew Pitch Black, of course. And with the Dew making their addictive delicious drink a regularly available item, we can now pair it with other unique Halloween items throughout the year.
Japan was the first to test out the all-black burger, and now they’re doing the same with chips. Doritos is going all-black, too, just in time for Halloween, releasing these garlic flavored snacks that are ironically for everyone except those who sleep during the day and play all night (I’m talking about vampires!). Weird as it may sound, this isn’t the first time Doritos has released an all-black chip – back in 2014 they tested out Rock’n’Black, a pepper and rock salt variation that has my mouth-watering (get me the Rock’n’Green jalapeno and cheese Doritos, please).
So, without further adieu, here’s a look at Garlic Pepper Doritos that we pray will find their way here to the States sometime soon. Have you guys seen any other new Halloween treats popping up in stores?
Enjoy today's new Japanese snacks, incl. black garlic Doritos and new Popin' Cookin' https://t.co/q7HywqLh3B pic.twitter.com/3bzlQlMWVV

We have the Jason Universe to thank for the recent return of Jason Voorhees, with the short film Sweet Revenge and Jason’s arrival in Dead by Daylight helping to bring the hockey mask-wearing horror icon back into our lives. What else is planned, you ask?
In a chat with Variety this week, Jason Universe’s Robbie Barsamian teases that everything we’ve seen up to this point is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Jason’s return.
“We’ve been busy behind the scenes laying the foundation that everyone is finally starting to see come to life, but this is just the tip of the iceberg,” Barsamian teases.
“We have a thrilling lineup of new projects that we can’t wait to share more details on soon.”
Barsamian also notes during the chat with Variety, “We want to give fans fresh takes on what they love most about Jason and continue to expand his world in authentic ways that resonate with horror fans today.” One of those expansions will take the form of the upcoming Peacock and A24 series “Crystal Lake,” which stars Linda Cardellini as Pamela Voorhees.
“The Crystal Lake TV series will take fans back in time to tell the story of how Pamela Voorhees came to be the mother of all slashers,” Barsamian tells Variety this week.
“Crystal Lake” premieres October 15 on Peacock.
Callum Vinson (“Chucky”) is playing young Jason in “Crystal Lake,” which will tell the origin story of the masked slasher who has stalked the grounds of Crystal Lake for decades.
Last year, the Jason Universe team had teased that a new movie and a new video game are top priorities for the near future. But at this time we have no updates on either front.
Stay tuned for more from the Jason Universe.
