Introduction to the Dread Lobster Meal
The "Dread Lobster" truck has something to hook you in if you’re looking for a horror-themed bite to eat. Red Lobster, in collaboration with Chain, has teamed up to offer a unique horror-themed food experience with its “Dread Lobster” food truck to promote the new “I Know What You Did Last Summer” sequel.
The Concept Behind the Dread Lobster
The murderous hook-wielding fisherman returns for revenge after the events of the 1997 and 1998 films and is on the hunt for his latest victims. This theme is carried through in the food truck’s offerings, creating a fully immersive experience for horror fans and foodies alike.
