If you’re looking for the Halloween Squishmallows in the United States, you’ve wound up with nothing but disappointment. These popular toys were included in McDonald’s Happy Meals in the UK last year and were a smash hit. The positive reaction gave fans hope that they’d come to the US in 2023. So are they limited to the UK and Ireland again, or can we expect to see the McDonald’s Squishmallows soon?
Are McDonald’s Halloween Squishmallows coming to the United States in 2023?
There are no plans for the McDonald’s Halloween Squishmallows to come to the US or any other country. These adorable toys are exclusive to Happy Meals in the UK and Ireland, and there’s no indication that’ll change any time soon.
From October 11 until Halloween, you can get one of six different Squishmallows at participating McDonald’s in the UK and Ireland. The list of Squishmallows for 2023 are:
- Autumn the black cat
- Bella the spider
- Brock the dog
- Patricio the bat
- Stump the skeleton cat
- Wade the werewolf

Your daily boosts for April 2024.
Luckily for all of us Squishmallow fans across the Atlantic, plenty of these are available on eBay. You’ll pay a premium, but that’s a reality all collectors have to face occasionally.
Note that US McDonald’s employees will have no idea what you’re talking about if you show up or call looking for Squishmallows. They’ve got their hands full with the yearly Boo Bucket selection, which is available now.
The obvious charm of these Squishmallows has captivated people all around the world. Given their success in the United Kingdom and Ireland, it’s puzzling that they haven’t crossed the ocean yet. Some think it’s because of licensing agreements, while others think it’s a purposeful strategy to create demand.
Meanwhile, as fans in the United States wait in anticipation, local craftspeople and toy producers may see an opportunity. Perhaps this will inspire the invention of unique Halloween plush toys, filling the hole created by the disappearance of Squishmallows. As Halloween approaches, stuffed toy enthusiasts may want to check out local festivals or craft fairs for unique, handcrafted options.
