McDonald Halloween Pails are Back

Sharing is caring!

The McDonald’s Halloween Boo Buckets are back! Yes, the rumors are true. Starting October 21, and will go until November 3, 2025 you can get a Halloween pail with your Happy Meal. Your Happy Meal will be served in a pail instead of a cardboard box.

There are 3 pail designs, only 1 will be in a restaurant at a time. The pails will be available as supplies last at participating stores. Let us know if you’ve seen them!

About the 2025 Boo Bucket designs:
“This year’s lineup features familiar frightful faces – Ghost, Pumpkin and Goblin – plus two new ghoulie friends, Cat and Zombie. Each bucket has its own creepy, kooky and cute expressions, so you can collect them all! Fans can even dress up their pails with Halloween themed stickers.” ~ Source: McD Corporate website

And what do you think of the new designs?

2025 McDonald's Halloweeen Boo Buckets will be back. This year's lineup features familiar frightful faces: Ghost, Pumpkin, and Goblin, PLUS two new friends: Cat and Zombie

This is as nostalgic a fast-food deal as you can get. The pails started in 1986, when McDonald’s offered Happy Meals in cute, Halloween-themed buckets. It could double as a trick-or-treat pail. Each pail comes with Halloween stickers.

This year, the design has been updated again.

The new 2025 McDonald’s Boo Buckets Designs have been released! 

The three original designs were all jack-o-lanterns, just with different faces. A few years later, the white ghost and green witch designs were added to the lineup. Then they were all various cute monster designs.

Last year, Burger King got into the competition and revealed a Halloween bucket of its own. Has anyone seen ads yet for these this year?
