Krispy Kreme is back with a brand-new Haunted House Collection of doughnuts in hope of spreading some frightening cheer this season. The Halloween-themed pastries are offered from Monday, Oct. 10 through Monday, Oct. 31, 2022, and certainly give the witch-themed doughnuts from 2021 a run for their money.

“When fans open the door on our haunted house custom box, they’ll ‘skreme’ with delight at all-new doughnuts that are perfect for celebrating everything that’s sweet about Halloween,” Dave Skena, Global Chief Brand Officer for Krispy “Skreme,” said in a recent tweet.

Available in a boo-tiful haunted house-inspired custom dozen box, the new Halloween-inspired doughnut collection includes:

• Spooky Spider: a glazed doughnut dipped in chocolate icing and topped with cookie pieces, an icing spider web and a spider sugar piece.
• Scaredy Cat: a shell doughnut filled with “kreme,” dipped in purple icing and decorated with green buttercream and chocolate icing and topped with a chocolate cat.
• Boo Batter: a shell doughnut filled with cake batter, topped with green icing, sugar sprinkles, buttercream and a ghost sugar piece.
• Neon Orange Sprinkle: a glazed doughnut with orange icing and Halloween sprinkles.

I was definitely in the mood for Halloween after eating these spooktacular doughnuts. Without a doubt, the packaging design had already won me over and the taste did not disappoint either. The Spooky Spider Doughnut is my personal favorite of the dozen. The addition of chocolate cookie chunks to this delectable glazed doughnut makes it irresistible. Even though this was ranked number one, in my opinion, any of the doughnuts from the Haunted House collection would satisfy a sugar craving.

I also adore the top embellishments in this Halloween collection. Even though I savored the flavors of Autumn’s Orchard, the Haunted House collection stood out because of its intricate decorations and careful attention to detail. The Boo Batter and Scaredy Cat doughnuts were adorable and go perfectly with the theme of the season. I would advise anyone with a love for Halloween and an uncontrollable sweet tooth to hit the nearest store immediately.

Krispy Kreme sure knows its way around the bakery. Whatever your mood is, you will surely be drawn to one or more of the four new eerie doughnuts from Krispy “Skreme.” The Haunted House Collection doughnuts are unquestionably worth trying as it continues to increase this year’s Halloween spirit. Be sure to hurry to the local Krispy “Skreme” in your neighborhood before Halloween! If you do plan on stopping by on Halloween, you have a chance to get one doughnut for free, but only if you dressed up as a ghost or a goblin.
