    Does anyone remember a skeleton hologram card from a 1980s cereal box? I think it was from Dunnes Stores. I know this is a long shot.

    You're not thinking of the Weetabix Scary Stickers by any chance? There was a glow in the dark skull sticker in that series. It wasn't a hologram though. If you google "Weetabix Scary Stickers" you'll get a few links to pictures of them. To rule them out if nothing else :)

    Ah I remember those stickers but they are not them. The hologram was a thick card. I think it had a skeleton with a sword.

    No problem. By good fate I actually found those whilst looking for something else similar that came in a cereal. It reminded me that I'd once had those D/D's too. Wish I still had them as they look pretty cool!

    I had just the one. Not sure if it is still around. It may be somewhere in loft.
