The Addams Family 2 inspired the latest range of [Kellogg](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rice-krispies-scares) cereals and snacks, which help to give products like Pop-Tarts and Rice Krispies Treats a fresh new spooky look for the Halloween season. These new treats feature special marshmallows shaped like monsters, bats and ghosts, as well as eye-catching packaging with the faces of beloved characters from the franchise.

Beyond enjoying bowls of Kellogg's Spooky Cereal around the breakfast table, families will find snacks like Pop-Tarts Frosted Spooky Chocolatey Fudge Bites and shareable boxes of Rice Krispies Treats Original Big Bars.

With these Kellogg cereals and snacks, people have the chance to redeem a free digital download of the first animated Addams Family movie by uploading a copy of their receipt online.
