Denny’s has introduced the Afterlife Menu, inspired by the film Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. This limited-time menu features a variety of themed dishes, blending imaginative flavors with references to the movie.
Kick off with the 'Say It Three Times Slam,' which features "three silver dollar chocolate chip pancakes, lavishly topped with vanilla cream, chocolate sauce, chocolate chips, and vibrant green sprinkles." This is complemented by three eggs prepared to your preference and three strips of crisp bacon. For a savory treat, the 'Afterlife Melt' showcases a blend of fried mozzarella sticks, melted American, and Provolone cheeses accompanied by a side of wavy-cut fries.
The menu also includes the 'Beetlejuicy Burger,' boasting "three-quarter-pound patties, bacon, Provolone cheese, and a selection of fresh toppings on a golden Brioche Bun, with fries on the side." For a dessert option, Denny offers the 'Cookies 'N' Scream Shake,' a blend of vanilla ice cream and OREO cookie pieces, finishing off the themed dining experience.
