Ahead of this Halloween season, Fanta, Universal Pictures and Blumhouse have developed a global partnership which sees four horror icons come together for the first time in the ultimate Halloween line-up.
The partnership, adopting the phrase, “The just wanta Fanta”, sees horror icons Chucky (Chucky franchise), Freddy Fazbear (Five Nights at Freddy’s 2), The Grabber (Black Phone 2) and M3gan (M3GAN 2.0) united over one insatiable craving: Fanta!
Ibrahim Salim Khan, Global VP, Fanta at The Coca-Cola Company, said: “This Halloween, in a delicious, thrilling partnership with Universal Pictures and Blumhouse, we will bring back the most legendary horror icons for the first time. They’re back. But they’re not here to haunt you. They just… Wanta Fanta!”
Across the globe, fans can expect to see the cult and modern Halloween characters on the hunt, with a series of experiences in the run-up to Halloween. They may be from very different worlds, but this time, they share the same desire – They Wanta Fanta. (sic)
Universal will release two terrifying new chapters for these horror icons, including Black Phone 2 (in theatres October 17) and Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 (in theatres December 5). Both films are from Blumhouse, one of the big names in the horror franchise.
Not only are these horror icons chasing and gracing the limited-edition Halloween Collection packaging of the classic Fanta flavours, but for a limited time, they’re also after Chucky’s custom flavour: Chucky’s Punch.
This berry-flavour Fanta is available worldwide from today alongside all four icons on cans across the full Fanta® flavour range.
Portraits include Chucky on Chucky’s Punch; The Grabber on Strawberry; Freddy Fazbear on Orange and M3gan on Grape (flavours and characters vary by market).
Fans can get more from the characters by scanning the QR code on the side of cans to access exclusive content and experiences.
From September to October and beyond, fans are encouraged to keep their eyes peeled as the horror icons are set to show up everywhere that Fanta does, from the limited-edition packaging, to retail, vending machines, factories and real-life experiences.
