Sweet Pandora's Box! | The Vampire, The Creature, The Ghost | Familiar Monsters
Cookies & Creme flavored crunchy chocolate fudge nuggets with marshmallows that marble darkly in milk. Aroma resembles coffee upon opening, reminiscent of coffee beans. A richly opulent cereal worth having all year round. Something that may be served at the Nevermore commissary. A pleasure savoring Wednesday for breakfast and dessert, or any time, with or without milk.
3 puzzle games in the girls' dormatorium on the backside of the hellegantly Gothic encasement, of a more advanced nature than those usually found on cereal boxes. Interesting that MGM is marked thereupon, which may also be an appropriate double entendre acronym for "Mentally Gifted Minors", of which the Dracling was a part. While the side features interesting trivia about the presentation. {5/5} ∞
The Vampire, The Creature, The GhostTastes like Halloween...
Count Chocula, Fruit Brute, Frankenberry, Yummy Mummy, Booberry.Being that Halloween has always held a most favorite appreciation, undoubtedly for the Dracling, on the lighter side of the darkside, I have partaken in these creature delights since forever. When it comes to cereal, while others ate their Wheaties or whatever, these fellows have graced this monster's bowl {of course, also acquiring the Addams Family and Batman cereals as well, yet were unfortunately transitory}.
[Also listen to 'Monster Adventures In Outer Space', and 'Monsters Go Disco']
The above 45 'flexi' record was on the backside of the thrilling threesome's cereal boxes, when cereals still contained such fun toys and prizes within or upon them, veritable tricks and treats, which really added another dimension of amusement, along with the tasty delights within, which one could play with while enjoying these sugary confections acquired as often as possible, although predictably more available during the Falloween season, sometimes lingering on into the new year, which always somehow seems to end up on My table. These can be enjoyed with or without milk, and perhaps would make an amusing addition to festivities presented in an appropriate receptacle for guests.
Well, contingent on being the most amusing time of year, the most current versions of Count Chocula, Booberry, & Frankenberry are in stores now {which I Am pleased to possess, brought in by The Witch}, not including the discontinued Yummy Mummy, Fruit Brute {a werewolf}, or the rare, but still available Quisp {an alien}. Cereals based on timeless Universal Monsters, evocative to the hilt, and a joy to consume.
I Am reminded of that interview segment in the Danzig Lucifuge Video with drummer Chuck Biscuits wherein he talks about these monster cereals.
The backs of these boxes feature "Monster Showdown", where the trio compete as to whose cereal is the scariest; you'll have to see whose clever antics wins this round! ∞
Addendum: Same idea as rice krispie marshmallow squares except instead of Rice Krispies, use Count Chocula, Booberry, or Frankenberry, or all {recommended}, and even add some Reese's Pieces / M&M's, if so inclined.

Familiar Monsters
Behold! The pentagonal offerings have come forth fresh from Transylvania to coffins worldwide!
Familiars have flown, crawled, and slithered from dark places of the earth to take their place at The Castle for Halloween celebrations, and are here to stay! Each with similarities to their mirthsome masters.
The Tricks: All boxes contain the same 2/1 seek & find puzzle only with a different colored background, which turns into quite a treat!
The Treats: Colored toasty bits with marshmallows in the shapes of those creepy creatures with swirly hypnotic textures. Every bowl assumes the tint of each!
🕷 Count Chocula is now accompanied by an arachnid named Boris {one would have thought it would be a more characteristic chiroptera}.
🦇 The rather fetishistic {clefted-craniumed} Frankenberry in chain suspenders, welcomes a pink bat!
🐈 "Scary Como" Booberry integrates a ghostly feline in a cool breeze and a glimpse of the eye.
🐍 Carmella is joined by Mr. Slithersworth, a verdant serpent coursing along her symmetry! {rather Lilithian}.
🏰 Frightful Friends monster mash: All four flavors combined in a veritable orgy of culinary pleasure!Arriving for The Devil's Ball this season, we have 🧛🏻♂️ the vampire, 👻 the ghost, Frankenstein's monster 🧟, and Frankenberry's deviliciously rocking naughty niece. Missing Fruit Brute 🐺, Yummy Mummy 💀, and Quisp! 👽 this time around, but perhaps they shall make a special appearance anyway...! ∞
Welcome Carmella!
Possessed the Monster Mash remix. Caramel apple flavor in the shape of monster heads, with purple, orange, and green marshmallows. Subtle taste.
All the characters are featured on the box: Count Chocula, Booberry, Frankenberry, Fruit Brute, and even Yummy Mummy! The back features a comic strip introducing 'Carmella Creeper', who happens to be Frankenberry's cousin who's spinning Rock, Metal, & Goth tunes by the look of her, in the ballroom. She reminds Me of Samantha's salacious sister Serena. [5/5]

Monster Smash!
Something I have been doing all along is mixing all 3 of the monster cereals together. It was interesting to pour it all out of the box at one time, instead of three separate ones.
Available in Large "family size" box covered in art, cereal history, trivia, and a code on the back to watch a documentary on the resurgence, and listen to the new version on spotify.
It would be interesting for General Mills to provide little boxes or baggies to dispense to Trick or Treaters for Halloween, and for all-year 'round appreciation. After all, even if it is cereal, the option has always been to consume either just by itself if desired, or with milk. I for one would be thrilled to receive a bag of monster cereal in My container!
[Aldi] Sleepy Hollow Coffee {Orange Citrus & Apple}: Definitely has a fruity flavor mixed with sort of a burnt wood, which is probably the apple. Served warm in My black skull mug. Considering adding honey for that increased seasonal effect. There's also Raven's Roast which I will try & review next. ∞
Monster Mash
General Mills is finally going to dispense a great combination of all monster cereals called perfectly "Monster Mash"! A Draconian manifestation. Exactly as I have been doing all along, stipulating to the universe what should happen! I always collect all the Monster cereals and mix them, calling it "Monster Mash"! Now lo and behold, so it is done! Inclusive of Yummy Mummy & Fruit Brute! [but what of the ever-elusive Quisp? - The Alien] It shall be the forthcoming Helloween sinsation! I hope they keep this on indefinitely! ∞
Monster Munch!
Monster cereals Count Chocula, Frankenberry, and Booberry have arisen from the grave to be devoured by cereal killers! Still waiting for Yummy Mummy and Fruit Brute to compleat the spentacular culinary collection! And... Quisp? Also awaiting pending MEGO materialization!
The Addams Family visit Monster Castle!
Well, to My pleasant surprise, what should I find, but not only the first round boxes, but "{Addams} Family Size" boxes! And of course, who is featured on this year's presentation, but Darketypal Satanic family characterization The Addams Family! In the original New Yorker magazine comic strip style! And the vampire, monster, & ghost seem excited to see them! With the werewolf howling in the distance and Mummy stalking the catacombs! Let the party begin!
So After finding 8 "mistakes" in the picture, there are Jack o' Lantern stencils available to download & print out! Still, a toy of some sort, or another plexi record would have been greatly appreciated! ∞
