Halloween’s Hottest Haunters are Back with new Frightful Friends

Monsters Cereals are making their grand return to shelves with new pet-shaped marshmallow pals.
Promotional graphic for new Monsters’ Frightful Friends Cereal featuring illustrations of the iconic Monsters Cereal characters, including Carmella Creeper (a green zombie DJ) with her pet Scratch the Snake, Franken Berry (a pink Frankenstein) with his pet Bennie the Bat, Count Chocula (a brown vampire) with his pet Igor the Spider, and Boo Berry (a blue ghost) with his pet Meow Berry the Cat – alongside images of marshmallows mimicking the pet shapes. The background is purple with thematic decorations.

This season, our Monsters are turning up the frightful fun by bringing along their very own scary sidekicks. That’s right, Halloween’s hottest haunters are obsessed with their pets just like the rest of us, and they’re here to make your Halloween mornings more mischievous than ever.

Meet the Scary Squad

Count Chocula with
Igor the Spider

Count Chocula’s rich, chocolatey cereal we all know and love is back, but this time is accompanied by spider-shaped marshmallows! Meet Igor the Spider, Count Chocula’s loyal guard spider, who is always on the lookout to make sure no one gets between the Count and his cocoa treats.

Franken Berry with
Bennie the Bat

The strawberry-licious Franken Berry is getting a little batty this year with the addition of bat-shaped marshmallows. Bennie the Bat, Franken Berry’s best bud, has a wicked sense of humor and wonky sonar, making him the perfect companion for some fright-night fun.

Boo Berry with
Meow Berry the Cat

Boo Berry’s irresistible blueberry flavor now features cat-shaped marshmallows as an ode to his elusive feline friend, Meow Berry. It’s the purr-fect pairing for ghostly antics, but beware — when Meow Berry disappears, there’s not a ghost of a chance at finding her.

A Monster Mashup

Carmella Creeper with
Scratch the Snake

The newest member of the Monsters crew, Carmella Creeper brings her cool, caramel apple vibe to the table with edgy, snake-shaped marshmallows. Scratch the Snake has serious attitude and an even crazier rhythm, making him the ideal partner-in-crime for Carmella’s DJ parties and zombie mischief at the haunted mansion.

If one Monster isn’t enough to satisfy your spooky cravings, get ready for a hauntingly delicious bowl of Frightful Friends. This limited-edition cereal combines all your favorite Monsters flavors with the new pet-shaped marshmallows, bringing the spooky pet party to every spoonful.

Trick or Treat Yourself

This Halloween, let the Monsters and their frightful friends bring some festive fun to your spooky season celebrations, because after all, what is a party without pets? But be forewarned, these ghastly duos are only haunting shelves for a limited time, so stock up at any nationwide retailer before they vanish. We dare you to try all five!
