Meet the Munchie Meal of Horror
Leading the frightful feast is the Munchie Meal of Horror, summoned straight from Springfield as a terrifying twist on Jack’s legendary late-night meal.
Fans can choose between a Double Krusty Burger of Terror or Double Chicken Sandwich of Terror, served alongside two tacos, seasoned curly fries and a drink. Each meal also comes with one of six special-edition glow-in-the-dark The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror cups and arrives in an exclusive Treehouse of Horror Munchie Meal box that brings Jack Box into the twisted world of Springfield.
Both sandwiches feature the all-new Spooky Simpsons Sauce, a smoky BBQ ketchup created exclusively for the collaboration, and are served on custom sesame seed buns inspired by the burgers seen in the world of The Simpsons.
More Ways to Get a Taste of Springfield
Whether looking for a classic bite or something a little more monstrous, fans can also experience the collaboration through a lineup of The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror Meals, with four themed entrées to choose from. Each meal is served with fries and a drink, giving fans more ways to get a taste of Springfield:
- Krusty Burger of Terror: Terrifyingly delicious seasoned 100% beef patty, melty American cheese, lettuce, tomato, and new Spooky Simpsons sauce on a toasted sesame seed bun.
- Double Krusty Burger of Terror: Two seasoned 100% beef patties, melty American cheese, lettuce, tomato, and new Spooky Simpsons sauce on a toasted sesame bun.
- Triple Krusty Burger of Terror: Three seasoned 100% beef patties, three slices of melty American cheese, lettuce, tomato and new Spooky Simpsons sauce on a toasted sesame seed bun. Plus fries and a drink.
- Double Chicken Sandwich of Terror: Featuring two crispy chicken patties, lettuce, tomato, Swiss-style cheese, and new Spooky Simpsons sauce on a toasted sesame seed bun.
A Springfield-Inspired Sweet Treat
Jack is also putting its own spin on one of Springfield’s most recognizable treats with the new Forbidden D’oh!nut Holes. Inspired by Homer famously selling his soul to the devil for a donut, these dangerously tempting bites are a treat worth risking it all for. Warm donut holes are dusted with cinnamon sugar, topped with pink frosting and finished with rainbow sprinkles for a Jack take on the iconic pink donut. Even the packaging gets in on the horror, featuring Homer’s unforgettable transformation into a donut straight from the classic segment.
Collect All Six… If You Dare
The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror takeover extends beyond the menu with six special-edition glow-in-the-dark cups available with the Munchie Meal of Horror while supplies last. Each cup features a different Treehouse of Horror-inspired design, bringing fan-favorite characters like Hugo (Bart’s evil twin brother), Krusty the Clown, Marge, Kang and Kodos, and more to life in their spookiest forms. With six designs to collect, fans can see which frightful character they get with every meal.
Fans can take the horror home with custom The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror packaging, including an exclusive Munchie Meal of Horror box featuring characters and Easter eggs from past Treehouse of Horror episodes. The collectible box drops Jack Box right into the madness of Springfield, bringing the worlds of Jack in the Box and The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror together in one frightfully fun package.
“The best collaborations start with understanding what excites our fans, and we know The Simpsons has a special connection with Jack guests,” said Katelyn Zborowski, Chief Marketing Officer at Jack in the Box. “Jack and The Simpsons share an irreverent sense of humor, and Treehouse of Horror has put its own twisted spin on Halloween for decades. This collaboration gave us the perfect opportunity to bring those worlds together and fully immerse Jack in Springfield from the food and collectibles to Jack Box himself.”
“This Treehouse of Horror Munchie Meal is the most authentic and funny and scary and deeply Simpsons-y fun food collaboration the show has ever done,” said Matt Selman, executive producer and showrunner, THE SIMPSONS. “Jack in the Box has raised the bar with these beautiful and spooky collectors cups — and the Munchie Meal is dense with deep references for both Simpsons and Jack in the Box fans alike.”
The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror menu is available for a limited time beginning September 10 at participating Jack in the Box restaurants nationwide, through the Jack app and at JackintheBox.com, while supplies last.
