Finally, a snack that will satisfy your munchies and keep spooky creatures at bay.

During the month of October, snackers in Japan will be enjoying a special flavor of black garlic pepper Doritos.

The curiously strong flavor sounds incredibly delicious and seems like it would be perfect for warding off vampires. But probably awful for your next hot date. So grab some mints.

While the special, limited flavor seems to be only available in Japan, The Nerdist noted that you can also try ordering bags of them on the Japanese commerce websites, including J-List or NapaJapan.com.

However, supplies may be limited.

It's the most delicious way to ensure a safe, ghoul-free Halloween.
