Halloween this year is poised to look far different than in years past, which is seeing brands take note with new offerings like the Zombie Skittles Costume. The costume has been unveiled by the brand on Twitter as part of a sweepstakes that only requires them to enter online for their chance to win the candy-inspired getup. The costume looks like any oversized pack of the namesake candies with an unpleasant flavor in the mix, but is further enhanced with a specialized wrist device that will emit a zombie-scented odor to keep others away.
The Zombie Skittles Costume is positioned as a cheeky socially distanced getup that is sure to delight consumers this year, but is very limited-edition with interested parties required to enter online to score one before Halloween.
