The annual must-see The Simpsons Halloween episode Treehouse of Horror XXXI hits Fox on October 18th. And today we have some killer sneak peek images.
Check them out below.
Treehouse of Horror is a series of Halloween-themed episodes of the animated series consisting of three separate, self-contained segments usually involving the family in some horror, science fiction, or supernatural setting. They take place outside the show’s normal continuity and are far more violent and much darker than an average episode. The first aired on October 25, 1990, as part of the second season and was inspired by EC Comics Horror tales. Since then, there has been 30 Treehouse of Horror episodes, with one airing every year.
Episodes contain parodies of horror, science fiction, and fantasy films, as well as a special version of the opening sequence, and scary names in the credits. The show’s staff regard the Treehouse of Horror as being particularly difficult to produce, as the scripts often go through many rewrites, and the animators typically have to design new characters and backgrounds.
Treehouse of Horror XXXI hits Fox on October 18th. Meanwhile, the other Halloween specials and episodes of The Simpsons are streaming on Disney+.
