McDonald’s has officially released its 2025 Disney Villains Boo Buckets, marking a new “villain era” for the popular Halloween Happy Meal promotion. The collection features five iconic Disney antagonists including Scar, Ursula, Maleficent, Cruella, and Jafar, each represented by a uniquely colored pail with specific character designs. These buckets became available at participating restaurants nationwide on Tuesday, October 20. Each item includes a villain-inspired lid and a sheet of stickers for customization, though the traditional character toppers have been omitted in favor of classic handles. The limited-time offer is expected to remain available until early November, although popular characters may sell out sooner due to high demand. This release continues a long-standing Halloween tradition that began in 1986, encouraging collectors and fans to visit quickly to secure their favorite designs before they disappear.
