Like it or not, spooky season is here and [Universal Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/universal-studios-halloween-horror-nights) is celebrating with a whole host of terrifying new snacks like the Ghostbusters Halloween Trap Popcorn.

Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights is an annual event that aims to both entertain and terrify visitors. But while the 10 haunted houses will certainly make you scream, you may be more interested in some of the terrifying treats on the Halloween Horror Nights menu. This spooky new menu includes [Stranger Things Voodoo Doughnuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krispy-kreme-night-of-the-skremes), a Jacque-O-Lantern Milkshake, and '80s-inspired cocktails with names like the Blood Pit-Fuzzy Navel and Vampire's Curse. However, one of most exciting new menu items is the Ghostbusters Halloween Trap Popcorn, which consists of a [ghost trap popcorn bucket](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinemark-popcorn-bucket) filled to the brim with slime-green popcorn.
