Turn your ordinary cereal breakfast into a bewitching one with General Mills limited-edition Monsters cereal characters. This year, the food company celebrates the 55th anniversary of Count Chocula, Boo Berry, and Franken Berry. For this special occasion, the cereals return to the aisle dressed in newly designed packaging and the reimagined puppets created by the Jim Henson Company.
The monsters, whether in a larger-than-life or collectible form, have become a beloved Halloween ritual, beckoning the beginning of the haunting season. Now, these limited-edition monsters are casting a spell on your cereal bowl with their adorable antics. These Monsters characters are brought to life not in the fleece-like texture of the puppets, but in form of a fuzzy cereal box.
“For 55 years, the Monsters have brought a smile, and a little thrill, to cereal bowls,” said Megan Brooks, Business Unit Director for Family Favorites Cereal at General Mills. “Fans loved Count Chocula, Boo Berry and Franken Berry reimagined through The Jim Henson Company’s creativity last year, so we were excited to team up again to create fresh new packaging designs that celebrate the characters and bring even more Halloween fun to store shelves.”

As if fans weren’t already in awe of these scrumptiously ghostly characters, these fresh packaging designs further immortalize them, adding more fun and joy to your Halloween celebration. Interested buyers can find these limited-edition cereal collections available in retailers nationwide later this month.
Whether you are celebrating the spooky season with the trio for the first time or the 55th, this Monsters cereal collection in a brand-new avatar will make every morning extraordinary and enchanting. For now, only Count Chocula Cereal and Boo Berry Cereal are available on Walmart for $4. But according to a General Mills press release, they will be available exclusively on Walmart starting October 1, 2026.
