Starbucks Fans Are Running to Disney for 'Nightmare' Halloween Cup
Starbucks fans are hyped up about a handful of new Halloween-themed pieces of merchandise expected to land on store shelves in the coming weeks.
While summer is still in full swing, Halloween items have already begun popping up in stores in anticipation of the excitement that typically surrounds fall’s spooky holiday. In addition to the seasonal mugs and tumblers Starbucks previewed ahead of its fall merchandise drop, reports indicate Disney is also preparing to release a special Starbucks Halloween cup.
Images of The Nightmare Before Christmas-themed tumbler were recently shared online by social media accounts that often provide Disney fans with insider looks at upcoming merchandise releases. Instagram users @magicalsoulfoodie and @DisneyKeep on X shared the same photo of the new cup in the last two weeks.
