The limited-edition spooky cereals — Kellogg's® Froot Loops®, Kellogg's® Chocolate Frosted Flakes™ and Kellogg's® Apple Jacks® — are each transformed for Halloween with marshmallow-shaped monsters, ghosts and bats that intermingle with your favorite breakfast cereals. Plus, beloved Addams Family characters, including Wednesday, It and Lurch, make a special box appearance alongside Toucan Sam®, Tony the Tiger® and more.
For even more Addams Family fun, boxes of Kellogg cereal, snacks and more are marked with a download notice offering a free digital download of the first animated Addams Family movie. To redeem, fans can review the terms and conditions and upload a copy of their receipt to Kellogg's Family Rewards at KFR.com/AddamsFamily2.
"A timeless Halloween classic, 'The Addams Family' has brought families and friends together for years," said Laura Newman, senior marketing director of Kellogg All Family Cereal. "This collaboration enables families to bring the oddly lovable Addams Family spirit home with our spooky cereals, trick-or-treat-ready snacks and a free download of the first animated Addams Family movie within specially marked boxes."
Along with Kellogg cereals, Kellogg's® Froot Loops® Jumbo Snax, Pop-Tarts® Frosted Spooky Chocolatey Fudge Bites and Rice Krispies Treats® Original Big Bars are getting a Halloween transformation. Featuring "The Addams Family" characters and Toucan Sam strutting in festive costumes, all varieties are available in single-serving pouches or bars for trick-or-treaters.
