The Coca-Cola brand has teamed up with Universal Pictures and Blumhouse to serve fans a spooky new experience that stretches beyond the bottle. For the first time ever, four iconic horror characters will take over Fanta’s collectible packaging. Fans can look forward to:
-
Chucky Punch – a limited-edition berry flavour inspired by the infamous killer doll.
-
The Grabber from The Black Phone haunting Fanta Strawberry.
-
Freddy Fazbear from Five Nights at Freddy’s on the classic Fanta Orange.
-
M3gan, the viral android doll, lighting up Fanta Grape.
Each pack comes with a QR code that unlocks exclusive digital content and experiences, taking Fanta lovers into the world of comedy-horror.
Scary Can Be Fun
“Fanta and Halloween are the perfect fit because both are fun and delicious,” says Ibrahim Salim Khan, Global VP of Fanta. “Halloween is when our cravings for tasty treats, festivity, and self-expression come back to life — and horror films are a huge part of those celebrations.”
This year’s campaign builds on Fanta’s “Wanta Fanta” platform, launched in 2024, which has given the brand a global stage to play with cultural moments in fresh, creative ways.
Horror Hits the Big Screen
Universal Pictures and Blumhouse are also dropping two new installments featuring these Halloween icons:
-
The Black Phone 2 – in cinemas from 17 October 2025.
-
Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 – hitting theaters on the 5th of December 2025.
Both films promise spine-tingling suspense while keeping within the lighter side of horror that appeals to fans of all ages.
Global Rollout, Local Flavor
The Fanta Halloween Collection is available this season across Latin America, Europe, North America, and select Asia-Pacific markets — unfortunately skipping Africa for now. Still, the brand’s continued global investment in cultural moments signals that more creative activations may be on the way for South African consumers in the near future.
