When my coworkers on the POPSUGAR Food team opened a box filled with boxes of Count Chocula, Boo Berry, and Franken Berry cereals [1], I immediately screamed: "It's time for Monster Mash!!!" Expecting an equally pumped reaction, I looked up to see their confused faces and it hit me . . . these poor souls had never heard of my favorite childhood Halloween [2] treat, The Monster Mash. Have you?

Named after the iconic Halloween song [3] of the same title, the Monster Mash combines the three seasonal General Mills cereals into one explosion of spooky-good flavors. Scream-worthy strawberry notes from Franken Berry, hints of blueberry from ghoulishly delicious Boo Berry, and, of course, creepy chocolate flavors from Count Chocula come together to create a big bowl of sweet Halloween nostalgia.

Making Monster Mash is pretty self-explanatory (it's just a combination of three cereals), but you can read on for instructions if you need them. For those of us who enjoyed Monster Mash as kids, it's a Halloween tradition!
