The General Mills Cereal Monsters Unite This Halloween for 50th Anniversary ‘Monster Mash’ Cereal!
It’s been a while since General Mills has done much of anything with their lineup of Monster Cereals, but this year is a big year and, well, they’re going BIG this Halloween season.
Officially teased over the weekend, General Mills is bringing “Monster Mash” cereal to the breakfast table this Halloween season, a 50th anniversary hybrid of *all* the spooky cereals!
Count Chocula, Franken Berry, Boo Berry, and even Yummy Mummy and Fruit Brute (not seen since 2013!) are all joining forces for the mashup cereal, which celebrates the 50th birthday of the line’s launch with the Count Chocula and Franken Berry cereals back in 1971. Boo Berry followed in 1973, with Fruit Brute coming along in 1974 and Yummy Mummy in 1988.
Both Fruit Brute and Yummy Mummy were short-lived and never quite caught on the way their monster pals did, and this will be the first time they’ve been back in nearly ten years.
The “Monster Mash” cereal is described as an “artificially berry flavored frosted cereal with monster marshmallows,” and it’s a true hybrid of all four of the beloved Halloween cereals.
Check out the box art below and expect to be eating this tasty treat in the coming months!

‘Get the Hell Out of the House’ – Makers of ‘Mixtape Massacre’ Announce Christmas Horror Game
From the mind that brought you the slasher board game Mixtape Massacre and the aquatic horror game Float comes Get the Hell Out of the House, a brand new gameplay experience.
A mysterious package has arrived at the Bloody Disgusting offices this week announcing the upcoming tabletop horror game, which looks to have a Christmas Horror theme.
The board game is set in Springbrook Falls on Christmas Eve…
“Steve Collins has organized a party for the kids and staff of Ruthie’s House; something to remind them all that this is home for them as long as they want it to be. But just as the celebrations begin, there is a ring at the door. As Steve goes to open it, he has no idea the nightmare that is about to walk in.
“Protect your friends and family as Jeffrey Tombs comes home for the holidays. Uncover the secrets of the Tombs’ estate as you fight back, rescue your loved ones, and most importantly…
“GET THE HELL OUT OF THE HOUSE.”
The holiday horror-themed tabletop game is launching on Kickstarter Q3 2024. Stay tuned. In the meantime, be sure to follow the game’s official account on Twitter/X for updates.
