Starbucks introduces Dark Night Frappuccino, but there’s a catch
By Louis Skye
Starbucks coffee drinkers will be enjoying the Dark Night Frappuccino for Halloween. But there’s a catch!
Starbucks has unveiled a brand new and delicious Frappuccino for Halloween—the aptly-named Dark Night Frappuccino, but it’s only coming to Japan. Bustle reported that Starbucks has created a series of new Halloween-inspired drinks including Frappuccinos and mochas, each more delectable than the last.
These new flavors are only available in Japan beginning Oct. 18 — so it’s available now! Delish even found the Starbucks Facebook post announcing the new drink and it looks perfect for Halloween.
Check it out below, it looks delicious!

The Dark Night Frappuccino is chockfull of delicious brownies, dark cocoa, white chocolate chips, along with a host of berries—strawberry, cranberry, and raspberry—in a stunning rich, red sauce. This Frappuccino couldn’t be more Halloween-y if it tried!

Patrons can also order a Red Night Frappuccino—which substitutes the dark chocolate brownies with white chocolate ones. The berry sauce looks even more red and decadent in this drink.
The Dark Night and Red Night Frappuccino are part of Starbuck’s Masquerade Party drink series, which also features the Masquerade Raspberry Mocha, which is a white mocha with a shot of espresso, mixed berries, and a drizzle of berry sauce.
To make the drinks even more exciting, Starbucks Japan is offering a straw topper shaped like a masquerade mask. The deep red mask looks particularly stunning alongside the Red Night Frappuccino.
No news yet whether the Masquerade series will be available anywhere other than Japan, unfortunately.
But there’s no need to despair—Starbucks still has its Pumpkin Spice Latte, along with the Jack Skellington Frappuccino, Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas Frappuccino, Pumpkin Birthday Cake Latte, and even the Joker Frappuccino.
You just need to know how to you order off the secret Starbucks menu!
