The General Mills Monster Cereals have been an annual staple of Halloween since the early 1970s, with Boo Berry, Franken Berry and Count Chocula coming back each year. And then there’s Fruit Brute and Yummy Mummy, two additional characters whose cereals have come and gone over the years. We haven’t gotten a new character since Yummy Mummy’s arrival back in 1988, but it looks like General Mills is finally adding fresh blood to the mix this year.
For the first time in 35 YEARS, General Mills is reportedly adding a brand new monster named Carmella Creeper to their roster of Monster Cereal icons this Halloween season!
The zombie-themed character will be the first female cereal monster in the history of the brand, and she brings a caramel apple-flavored, green-colored cereal into our lives.
Carmella Creeper looks to be a mix between a zombie and the Bride of Frankenstein, a younger character that’s sure to appeal to a whole new generation of monster kids.
Additionally, it looks like General Mills will be releasing a new “Monster Mash Remix” this year, which includes all previous monster cereals PLUS the new caramel apple bits.
We’re still waiting on an official announcement from General Mills. Stay tuned.
