The Simpsons: 10 Best Ever Treehouse Of Horror Stories
2. Nightmare On Evergreen Terrace (Treehouse of Horror VI)
Riffing on Nightmare On Elm Street, the shape-shifting form of Groundskeeper Willie starts claiming the lives of the children in vengeance for the time that the adults of Springfield ignored Willies pleas for help while burning alive in favour of allowing Kirk Van Houten to continue outlining his concerns about Milhouse eating two spaghetti meals in one day. Fortunately, Maggies on hand to save the day with a well-placed pacifier in a valve of the tartan bagpipe-spider version of Willie (long story) which they fight to the death.
This segment also features one of the best lines in any episode of The Simpsons: Lousy Smarch weather. Dont try to analyse it. Its just a slice of idiocy so pure and excellent that it defies any attempt to rationalise it. A town which bends to the whims of a misprinted calendar is probably not a town I want to spend time around, but as evidence of the collective stupidity of the inhabitants theres little to match it.
