Monstrous Chocolate Campaigns

The Snickers Halloween Commercial Plays on People's Scary Sides

This chocolate brand is known for its tag line, 'You’re Not You When You’re Hungry,' and this year's Snickers Halloween commercial puts a fun spin on it. Instead of focusing on angry celebrities that take on a person's body, it focuses on scary ghosts and zombies who peep through when stomachs are growling like werewolves.

Witty and playful, the Snickers Halloween commercial celebrates the upcoming festivities in a way that stays true to the brand's identity. Simple but good, the Snickers Halloween commercial also reminds people that this is a chocolate made for the most frightening of seasons. After all, people don't want manic children possessed by their hunger to be running around the neighborhood collecting only god knows what. A chocolate bar packed with protein is the way to go.
