This New Wingstop Flavor Is Basically Halloween For Your Tongue

Wingstop’s new Halloween flavor isn’t for the faint of tongue.

Dubbed Haunted Habanero, the limited-time flavor blends the chain’s Atomic and Mango Habanero sauces into one sinister mix. What starts as a playful sweetness quickly turns into a slow, creeping burn that sticks around long after your last bite—like a ghost that refuses to leave.

The flavor’s available on wings, tenders, and chicken sandwiches, giving fans multiple ways to test their heat tolerance this spooky season. And judging by social media reactions, people are both thrilled and terrified.

Reviewers say Haunted Habanero brings a balanced flavor that’s equal parts sweet, smoky, and fiery—“a spicy twist that sneaks up on you,” as one TikTok user put it. Others admit it’s one of Wingstop’s more adventurous drops in recent memory, a flavor that toys with you before hitting you with the heat.

Haunted Habanero is available now for a limited time—so if you’re looking for a Halloween scare that doesn’t involve clowns or cursed dolls, Wingstop’s got you covered.
