Fast food fans, brace yourself\u2026<\/p>\n

The collab you never knew you needed is incoming, as KFC<\/a> is teaming up with Stranger Things<\/a> to launch a new Hawkins-inspired menu.<\/p>\n

Customers at the fried chicken chain<\/a> are being invited to enter the Upside Down, with two brand new items dropping this month, ahead of Season 5.<\/a><\/p>\n

But the items will only be around for a limited-time, and once the \u2018flavour portal\u2019 closes, they\u2019ll be gone forever. <\/p>\n

What\u2019s on the new KFC x Stranger Things menu?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

First up, there\u2019s a Stranger Things Burger (\u00a37.99)<\/strong>, with a \u2018bold\u2019 red bun that\u2019s apparently \u2018giving Vecna<\/a>\u2019.<\/p>\n

The burger features a spicy Zinger chicken fillet, cheese, crunchy pickled slaw, burger dressing and a brand new Sweet & Spicy Secret Sauce.<\/p>\n

The whole thing is served in KFC\u2019s first-ever red glazed bun, which is topped with black sesame seeds and the chain describes the burger as \u2018saucy, juicy and unapologetically bold\u2019.<\/p>\n

People will have the choice to order the burger on its own, as a meal (\u00a39.49) with regular signature fries and a drink, or as a box meal (\u00a310.99) with fries, a choice of chicken, an extra side and a drink. <\/p>\n

As well as this new Stranger Wings (\u00a33.99)<\/strong> are going to be available, which are a three-piece and see classic chicken wings drenched in the new secret hot sauce that \u2018delivers a supernatural kick enough to rift your taste buds wide open\u2019. <\/p>\n

Kate Tipper, marketing director at KFC UK&I said: \u2018KFC and Stranger Things fans know that when you have an obsession, you\u2019ll stop at nothing for it. <\/p>\n

\u2018It\u2019s this obsessive nature that makes this collaboration a perfect match, placing KFC authentically at the heart of the Stranger Things world.\u2019<\/p>\n

When does the Stranger Things menu launch at KFC?<\/h2>\n

The new Stranger Things menu will be available at KFC for a limited-time only from November 10 until January 4, 2026.<\/p>\n

And fans should keep their eyes peeled for more from the partnership, as the chain has teased that this is \u2018just the beginning\u2019.<\/p>\n

They added: \u2018Something is coming and you\u2019ll want to be there when the lights start flickering\u2026\u2019<\/p>\n
