The spookiest month of the year is here, and McDonald’s is celebrating by bringing back its special Halloween buckets.
McDonald’s isn’t the only fast-food restaurant celebrating Halloween, though. Burger King and Wendy’s have also announced special treats for the holiday.
Here’s a quick roundup of where you can grab McDonald’s Halloween Boo Buckets, indulge on Burger King’s Addams Family menu and grab some spooky toys at Wendy’s.

The Monster Boo Buckets will replace McDonald’s classic Happy Meal box starting on Tuesday, Oct. 15.
How much will they cost? Like most McDonald’s, the price will vary by individual restaurant and location.
To grab one, all you have to do is order your favorite Happy Meal, either directly at a restaurant or through the mobile app. Since the Boo Buckets are replacing the traditional Happy Meal boxes, you don’t need to worry about selecting any special options, though they’ll only be available as supplies last.
What colors will McDonald’s Boo Buckets come in this year?
McDonald’s is shaking up its color scheme for this year’s Boo Buckets. As of 2023, there will be white, orange and green buckets. But this year, blue buckets will replace purple buckets from last year.
Last year’s Boo Buckets also resembled classic monsters, including Monster, Skeleton, Mummy and Vampire. This year’s models are more amorphous, giving kids the ability to outfit them as they like with enclosed stickers.
Burger King is launching a special Addams Family menu
Starting on Oct. 10, Burger King will join the Halloween fun by launching a limited-time menu inspired by the Addams Family, complete with purple buns.
The restaurant said that the menu is meant to delight both kids and adults. It features churro fries, a new chocolate milkshake, special onion rings and a purple Whopper. Here’s a more detailed look:
Gomez’s Churro Fries: These spooky churros are strips of fried pastries covered in cinnamon sugar and served with a side of chocolate dipping sauce. The item was inspired by Gomez, who has a Spanish origin.
