Attention K-Mart shoppers...Fanta is getting into the spirit with a limited-edition soda flavor inspired by the upcoming film, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

On Thursday, the soft drink company revealed that through a partnership with Warner Bros., a new flavor and a whole new look for its lineup of bubbly beverages would soon be available for a limited time.

The special spooky edition of Fanta takes the fall staple, apples, and transforms its flavor into a haunted soda that would suit Beetlejuice himself. The Coca-Cola-owned brand said the new flavor can be identified by the packaging's black-and-white striped design reminiscent of the titular character played by Michael Keaton.

Fanta's other fruit-inspired sodas will also receive a bit of a supernatural makeover this fall season, with each variety in costume as one of Tim Burton's many other iconic characters.
