The limited-edition drink comes as an updated version of the Fanta Apple soda, but sees it prepared in the classic ICEE way to give it a decidedly more refreshing profile. The drink is arriving in celebration of the [Beetlejuice Beetlejuice film](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beetlejuice-beetlejuice-x-lush) that's headed to theaters starting September 6, 2024 and can thus be enjoyed by fans for a short time only. The Fanta Haunted Apple ICEE features a neon green color to pay homage to the Beetlejuice character himself, while a special edition cup features black and white stripes to match his suit aesthetic. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 86% | Freshness: 28% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Theatrical-themed Food Promotions:** Limited-edition refreshments linked to films or characters can create unique, memorable experiences for moviegoers. - **Short-term Seasonal Beverages:** Introducing exclusive, time-sensitive drinks can draw in consumers eager to partake in limited availability products. - **Character-inspired Packaging:** Special edition packaging that mirrors iconic costumes or personalities enhances brand storytelling and collectible appeal. ### Where This Applies - **Entertainment Food and Beverage:** Combining popular media franchises with food and beverages offers new avenues for cross-promotional marketing. - **Cinema Concessions:** The development of unique, themed snacks can serve as additional revenue streams and attract diverse audiences to theaters. - **Limited Edition Consumer Goods:** Crafting exclusive products linked to seasonal or pop culture events can heighten consumer interest and urgency. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Exclusive Spooky Sodas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limited-edition-fanta-flavor.md) - [Ghostly Adventure Refreshments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/icee-flavors.md) - [Neon Green Slushie Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slimers-green-apple.md) - [Comedic Horror Candy Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maynards-bassetts-beetlejuice-beetlejuice.md) - [Layered Horror-Comedy Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beetlejuicethemed-afterlife-cake.md) - [Horror Franchise Soda Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fanta-sodas.md) - [Frozen Film Franchise Refreshments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/icee-banana-blast.md) - [Movie-Themed Frozen Refreshments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trollsinspired-icee-flavors.md) - [Freakish Fruity Cafe Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freaky-frozen-chiller.md)
