We just passed the official Halfway to Halloween mark, which means the spooky season is right around the corner. It’ll only be a few more months before we start talking Halloween on a regular basis, which means it won’t be long before the Cereal Monsters return to shelves.
And this year, they’re bringing their monster pets along for the ride…
First spotted by @SammyHain over on Twitter this week, this year’s theme from General Mills is “Monsters’ Frightful Friends,” with Boo Berry, Count Chocula, Franken Berry and last year’s new addition Carmella Creeper returning this Halloween with all-new marshmallows.
The marshmallows in this year’s monster cereals will depict the brand new pets of the individual monsters, including a spider, a snake, a flying franken-bat, and even a ghost cat!
Here’s the full lineup…
- Count Chocula – Igor (spider)
- Franken Berry – Bennie (bat)
- Boo Berry – Meow Berry (cat)
- Carmella Creeper – Scratch (snake)
In addition to the individual boxes of each cereal, it looks like we’re also getting the “Frightful Friends” mashup blend this Halloween season, which brings all the different cereals together.
Look for this year’s monster cereals on store shelves as we get closer to Halloween.
