Monster of the Day #1506

The first segment of the first Treehouse of Horrors parodied the Amityville Horror, the third was a read of The Raven by James Earl Jones. The second story, however, introduced Kang and Kodos (initially joined by a rare third alien), who have functioned as the mascots of the yearly Halloween episodes. The first one was a riff on To Serve Mankind.

    “Forcing you?!? We just put the food on the table! You people made pigs of yourselves!”

  • These days, the Treehouse of Horror has become something that the *have* to do – which has kind of taken some of the fun out of it.

    “Eat my shorts.”
    “BART!”
