Dunkin’ has officially expanded its seasonal lineup across the United States for Halloween 2026. The menu is headlined by the triumphant return of its iconic Spider Donut, a brand-new berry-flavored beverage, and an all-new glow-in-the-dark MUNCHKINS bucket. Rolling out to participating locations nationwide starting October 14, the limited-time collection blends returning customer-favorite treats with fresh merchandise and charitable giving initiatives.
Spider Donut and “Spidey D” Return to the Menu
Few seasonal bakery offerings have cultivated a devoted following quite like Dunkin’s Spider Donut. Affectionately known online and in marketing campaigns as “Spidey D,” the character has evolved from a simple pastry into a recognizable social media personality and Halloween tradition. Ahead of past rollouts, the brand noted tens of thousands of fan requests demanding his return.
The 2026 iteration features a classic ring doughnut topped with vibrant purple frosting, featuring a Chocolate Glazed MUNCHKINS donut hole treat sitting directly in the center. The spooky creature is completed with chocolate icing legs and vanilla-flavored icing eyes. Standard frosted donuts and Chocolate Glazed MUNCHKINS are also trading their typical appearance for a festive mix of purple, chocolate, and white sprinkles.
Merchandise, Collectibles, and the Mystery Boo Box
To celebrate the cultural footprint of Spidey D, Dunkin’ has pushed the character far beyond the bakery display case. Participating restaurants nationwide are offering physical collectibles, including a Spider Donut Keychain priced at $9.99.
Additionally, fans can purchase the $8.99 Mystery Boo Box, which contains one surprise mystery item selected from four possible collectibles: a Spider Donut Squish, a pin set, an acrylic keychain, or a bandana. For apparel and home decor enthusiasts, Dunkin’ launched “The Spidey D Collection” exclusively on DunkinRunsonMerch.com, featuring clothing, accessories, and Halloween decorations priced between $22 and $100 while supplies last.
Meet Berry Battie and the Daydream Refresher
Spidey D is sharing the spotlight this season with a brand-new character: Berry Battie. The cheeky new bat mascot makes its official debut alongside the Berry Battie Daydream Refresher.
The vibrant purple beverage combines bold berry clementine and blueberry fruit flavors with oatmilk, crowned with a layer of Purple Marshmallow Cold Foam and finished with edible candy eyes that bring Berry Battie to life. To sweeten the launch, Dunkin’ scheduled a special giveaway for October 16. The brand is offering a free limited-edition Dunkin’ Bat Cup Sleeve-complete with plush purple wings designed to wrap around a beverage cup-to any customer who purchases a Berry Battie Daydream Refresher, available while supplies last.
Glow-in-the-Dark MUNCHKINS Bucket and Charity Partnership
The seasonal favorite Halloween MUNCHKINS Bucket has also received a major design upgrade for 2026. For the first time, the purple bucket features an all-new design incorporating costumed Dunkin’ characters and a glow-in-the-dark finish.
Each bucket comes filled with a random 50-count assortment of MUNCHKINS Donut Hole Treats, including new sprinkle-covered Halloween varieties. Continuing its tradition of community support, Dunkin’ announced that $2 from every Halloween MUNCHKINS Bucket sold will be donated directly to the Dunkin’ Joy in Childhood Foundation. This donation provides critical grants to nonprofits that help children battling hunger or illness nationwide.
Expanded Halloween Drink Lineup
The October menu updates complement a wider array of spooky beverages introduced by the chain earlier in the fall season. The expanded roster features innovative sips utilizing the signature Purple Marshmallow Cold Foam:
- Green Apple Dunkin’ Zero: Sparkling water mixed with crisp green apple flavors.
- Terror-misu Cloud Latte: An iced espresso latte layered with tiramisu flavors, Purple Marshmallow Cold Foam, and a dusting of hot chocolate powder.
- Franki Matcha: Sweetened matcha green tea combined with whole milk, vanilla flavor, and purple cold foam.
- Werewolf Punch Refresher: A punch-style blend of blackberry, clementine, mango, and pineapple juices mixed with lemonade.
All items, including the Spider Donut, Berry Battie Daydream Refresher, and glow-in-the-dark buckets, are available for a limited time at participating Dunkin’ locations across the country.
