Burger King Says Its New 'Nightmare King' Is Guaranteed To Keep You Up At Night

Scare your stomach.

Halloween is so hot, that even fast food chains are getting in on all the spooky marketing action.

Take Burger King’s latest promotion, for example. They’re now offering a “Nightmare King” burger that is “guaranteed to give you nightmares.” Excuse me?

For starters, it’s green. Yep. The burger buns are totally unapologetically green.

It’s made up of a quarter-pound beef, thick-cut bacon, mayo, onions, and a fried chicken fillet on the green “Frankenstein-monster-esque” buns. We see what they did there.

People are a little wary about this newest addition to the Burger King menu.

Here’s the kicker: Burger King actually worked with Florida Sleep & Neuro Diagnostic Services, Inc. to study sleep patterns that are common after someone ingests a burger.

They determined that those who ate the "Nightmare King" burger experienced a nightmare rate that was 3.5 higher than normal, which was reportedly caused by the overload of beef, chicken, and cheese.

You should know, a vegetarian option is also in the works.
