10 Best Treehouse Of Horror Episodes

Now that Disney+ is fully available across the globe, you may be asking yourself where to start. Rather than diving into the tales of princesses and evil witches, a much better place to start is with one of Disney's newest acquisitions. America's favourite family, The Simpsons.

But there's so many classic episodes, from monorail musicals in Marge vs. The Monorail, to a Michael Jackson mimic in Stark Raving Dad.

But how about something less whimsical? How about diving deep into the darkness of The Simpsons? The best place to begin would be with Treehouse of Horror. The annual Simpson's Halloween episode, which began in season 2 and provided us with some of the greatest (and creepiest) episodes of animated television ever made.

But which were the very best?

Starting with the beginning of the end of The Simpsons, this episode (which aired in 1998) features three of The Simpsons lesser known Halloween tales. Opening up with Hell Toupee, telling the story of the death of notorious criminal Snake and his eventual possession of Homer via hair transplant. This is the most memorable and best segment of the episode, followed immediately by the poorest.

The Terror of Tiny Toon sees Bart and Lisa being sucked into the television set and living out their wildest dream, being inside and episode of The Itchy & Scratchy Show. A dream that quickly becomes a nightmare. A fun segment that explores the idea of how much we as an audience enjoy the misfortune of those that we watch on TV.

Lastly is Starship Poopers, a Maggie and Marge-centric episode which reveals Maggie's true parentage as a bizarre breeding experiment between Marge and Kang, an alien being. It all culminates with an intergalactic Jerry Springer showdown.
