Burger King has a brand-new Whopper on its menu and it’s ghost-approved.
The Ghost Whopper is basically a typical Whopper with tomatoes, lettuce, white onions, mayonnaise, ketchup, and pickles — set inside a White Cheddar-flavored, white sesame bun for $4.59. Because it’s almost Halloween. Get it?

In an appropriate stunt, the fast food joint enlisted the help of medium Riz Mirza to channel spirits at a haunted hotel to have them taste test the new burger. In the promotional video, Mirza, who can supposedly lend his body to various ghosts, munched on the new hamburger (as those frightening ghouls), and apparently one even requested a second helping.
Another ghost chowed down viciously and felt the “unusual and powerful” energy. A third didn’t recognize the sandwich and tossed the burger across the room exclaiming it was “filth.” But, overall, the spirits loved the creation. When Mirza came back into his body, he hadn’t remembered eating the Ghost Whopper at all.
At the end of the video, Burger King ominously revealed that the burger is “approved by 11 out of 10 people.”

. . . Oh, those marketing ploys!
