American's First Family of Fright!

For over 20 years The Simpson's have made us laugh with their hilarious antics every week. 22 episodes of Simpson Halloween specials, called the "Treehouse of Horror", have aired and certainly prove Halloween is the Simpson family's favorite holiday. Now you can dresses as your favorite Simpsons character for Halloween! Who will you choose?

Treehouse of Horror I-XXI

The Simpson's Halloween Specials!

Beginning in the second season, the writers of The Simpsons were given free reign to write a Halloween episode for the series. The first episode of its kind featured Bart, Lisa, and Maggie telling ghost stories in their treehouse on Halloween night. The series got its name, "Treehouse of Horror", from this episode.

In the THOH episodes anything goes. The episode usually consists of at least 3 short segments with the writers drawing on classic tales of horror. These have included famous horror films, the works of Edgar Allen Poe, episodes of The Twilight Zone, and other well-known horror concepts. There are also spoofs and gags, including an appearance by the space aliens Kang and Kodos and the changing of the production staff's names in the credits.

Homer J. Simpson

"D'oh! Nuts! Mmmm... donuts."

The epitome of the 'everyman', Homer loves his family, hates his job, and spends most of his time watching TV and drinking beer. Not the sharpest tool in the shed, his catch phrase is 'D'oh'.

Normally dressed in a white short sleeved shirt and blue pants, Homer is balding and portly. He likes to wriggle his fingers, drool, and giggle like a school girl.
