Spooky Sidekicks Join Monster Cereals’ Halloween Lineup
As summer fades, Halloween enthusiasts eagerly await signs of their favorite spooky holiday. This year, General Mills delivers an early treat by restocking shelves with their iconic Monster Cereals. The 2024 lineup not only features beloved favorites but also introduces new companions, adding a festive twist to these Halloween essentials.
Meet the Frightful Friends
“Our beloved and nostalgic Monster Cereal characters have dug up their pet cemetery and brought out their Frightful Friends to bring more festive fun this Halloween season,” said an unnamed source from the marketing department, likely sporting bat wing dress socks. Each classic cereal now includes pet-themed marshmallows, enhancing the breakfast experience with a spooky, Edgar Allan Poe-like charm.
Here’s the monstrous lineup for 2024:
Frightful Friends: This mashup features a parade of pet-shaped marshmallows, adding creepy critters like spiders and snakes to the mix, reminiscent of “Night of the Living Dead” meets “Secret Life of Pets.”
Count Chocula with Igor the Spider: Classic chocolate cereal now includes spider-shaped marshmallows. Igor, the Count’s loyal sidekick, brings a creepy, crawly element to the table.
Franken Berry with Bennie the Bat: The original berry-flavored cereal gets a boost with bat-shaped marshmallows. Bennie adds a touch of batty comedy and quirky sonar to the mix.
Boo Berry with Meow Berry the Cat: Cat-shaped marshmallows join the berry cereal, celebrating Boo Berry’s aloof and elusive feline friend, Meow Berry.
Carmella Creeper with Scratch the Snake: Newcomers Carmella Creeper and Scratch the Snake offer caramel apple cereal with snake-shaped marshmallows. Scratch, with his attitude and rhythm, perfectly complements the outsider Zombie DJ, Carmella.
