The Halloween season is right around the corner and that means the General Mills Monster Cereals will be returning to store shelves in the coming weeks. In fact, they’re already here!
General Mills sent out a press release this morning officially announcing this year’s Monster Cereals lineup, confirming that the theme for Halloween 2024 is “Monsters’ Frightful Friends.”
Boo Berry, Count Chocula, Franken Berry and last year’s new addition Carmella Creeper are returning this Halloween with all-new marshmallows… and for the first time, their own pets!
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.
In addition to the individual boxes of each cereal, we’re also getting the “Frightful Friends” mashup blend this Halloween season, which brings all the different cereals together.
Here’s the full lineup for the 2024 Halloween season…
- Count Chocula with Igor the Spider: Chocolatey, classic cereal bits are mixed with spider-shaped marshmallows. Igor is Count Chocula’s loyal guard spider and sidekick.
- Franken Berry with Bennie the Bat: The berry-delicious cereal is joined by bat-shaped marshmallows in honor of Bennie, Franken Berry’s best bud who has a wicked sense of humor and wonky sonar.
- Boo Berry with Meow Berry the Cat: The irresistible berry cereal incorporates cat-shaped marshmallows as an ode to Boo Berry’s feline friend. When Meow Berry disappears, there’s not a ghost of a chance at finding her.
- Carmella Creeper with Scratch the Snake: The newest cereal of the crew combines caramel apple cereal with snake-shaped marshmallows. Scratch has serious attitude and crazy-good rhythm, making him the perfect partner-in-crime for the edgy zombie DJ.
- Frightful Friends: It’s a spooky pet party! The Monsters Cereals you know and love are all joined by their scary sidekicks in this epic mashup of all frightful Monsters flavors, now with new pet-shaped marshmallows! From spiders to snakes, Monsters’ creepy critter friends are here to add even more mischief to Halloween.
You can find all five cereals at retailers nationwide beginning in August for a limited time.
