Cup Noodles® Raises the Stakes this Halloween with Vampire Noodles

Cup Noodles® and Titan Casket launch bold collaboration featuring blood-red, Hot Garlic Chicken noodles and a custom casket that's truly to die for

GARDENA, Calif., Sept. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- This Halloween, Cup Noodles is ready to bite back with the launch of its latest limited-edition flavor, Cup Noodles Vampire Noodles. Inspired by the notorious creature of the night, Vampire Noodles transform into a striking blood-red color when hot water is added, thanks to natural beet coloring. Paired with a bold hot garlic flavor and savory chicken umami, Vampire Noodles' visual spectacle and flavor kick are so irresistible that even garlic despising vampires can't resist it.

"Halloween is the perfect moment to create something unexpected, and Vampire Noodles does exactly that," said Priscila Stanton, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Nissin Foods. "The blood-red transformation and bold hot garlic flavor turn an everyday meal into a memorable Halloween experience. We're giving fans a surprising new way to celebrate the season with Cup Noodles."
