Burger King Just Released an ‘Addams Family’ Inspired Menu for Halloween—and It’s All Together Ooky

Halloween just got a whole lot kookier at Burger King. This year, the King of burger chains is taking things to the dark side with its newly released Addams Family menu, a spooky collaboration inspired by the iconic, creepy family we all know and love. Starting October 10, 2024, fans of the original cartoon can get their hands (or hand) on four limited-time items, each offering an eerie twist on a BK classic in honor of the beloved characters. So, if you’re an Addams, you do what Addams do—and that means head on over to Burger King. Here’s your first look at Burger King's The Addams Family menu.

What’s on the Burger King 'The Addams Family' menu?

These creepy delights are available at participating BK locations in the U.S., while supplies last. And for those up north, the spooky fun begins in Canada on October 7​ . Whether you’re a fan of Morticia’s charm, Wednesday’s dry wit or the lovable Thing, there’s something for everyone on this themed menu. Here’s what to expect:

• Wednesday’s Whopper : A twist on the classic Whopper featuring a purple bun made from purple potatoes. This eerie burger is stacked with flame-grilled beef, Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, onions, ketchup and mayo. Wednesday may hate everything, but not this.
• Thing’s Rings : Hold tight! Burger King’s signature onion rings come served in Addams Family packaging, giving a nod to the disembodied hand, Thing. The crispy rings are perfect for snacking on between spooky activities.
• Gomez’s Churro Fries : These cinnamon-sugar churros , shaped like fries, are a sweet tribute to Gomez Addams’ fiery passion. Served with chocolate dipping sauce, they’re a match made in dessert heaven.
• Morticia’s Kooky Chocolate Shake : Dark and mysterious like Morticia herself, this decadent shake is made with Burger King’s creamy soft serve, mixed with chocolate cake batter fudge and topped with black and purple cookie crumbles.

The Addams Family Menu can be purchased as individual items, and from what we've seen, you can even get a purple BK crown to wear while you munch. You can also check online for new daily deals on the BK app. One to keep in mind is Thing's Bizarre Bundle for 2 , which includes two Whoppers, two onion rings and two shakes, available on Fridays from October 11 to November 8, 2024 (A Royal Perks account is required).

From the Ghost Pepper Whopper to the Nightmare King with its dark green bun, it’s safe to crown the chain with having some of the most  memorable treats. This year's Addams Family collaboration is another fantastic chapter in the brand’s  annual Halloween fun.

According to Pat O’Toole, Chief Marketing Officer for Burger King North America, in a press release , “Halloween holds a special place in our brand’s history, and we know our Guests look forward to seeing what delicious and kooky creations we come up with each year.” And with The Addams Family on board, we think black looks great on the King.

The legacy of 'The Addams Family'

We’ve seen the The Addams Family on our television screens, movie screens and even onstage. But the cult phenomenon began as a series of single-panel cartoons created by Charles Addams for The New Yorker in 1938. The eccentric and macabre characters quickly captured the public’s imagination. Over the decades, the Addams family has grown into a staple of popular culture, with more adaptions across various entertainment industries. Known for their dark humor, quirky charm and satirical take on the "perfect" American family, Gomez, Morticia, Wednesday, Pugsley, Uncle Fester and the rest have become iconic symbols of embracing individuality and loving the strange.
