Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMatt Groening was nervous about "The Raven" because it did not have many gags, and felt it would be "the worst, most pretentious thing [they had] ever done" on the show.
- GoofsThe Krusty doll in Bart's bed at the end of the episode is very noticeably off-model.
- Quotes
[Homer calls the real estate agent in a rage after finding an Indian burial ground in the basement]
Homer: Mr. Pote, Homer Simpson here. When you sold me this house, you forgot to mention one little thing. You didn't tell me it was built on an Indian burial ground!
[pause]
Homer: NO, YOU DIDN'T!
[pause]
Homer: Well, that's not my recollection.
[pause]
Homer: Yeah, well... all right. Good-bye.
[hangs up the phone and turns to Marge]
Homer: He says he mentioned it five or six times.
- Crazy creditsUnlike later Halloween specials, there are no "funny" names for the cast members - everyone is just credited normally.
- ConnectionsFeatured in My Own Private Idaho (1991)
The first story is Bad Dream House Where the Simpson's move into a haunted House and soon learn why the house was really cheap as it haunted and while they stay the night, strange things start to happen, like blood on walls and everyone trying kill everyone.
This story was great spoof of The Amityville Horror and also find it its really funny when Maggie head turns around just like The Exocist.
The second story is Hungry and the Damned The Simpsons are in the back garden and they abducted by Aliens with one eye and they hear they are gust Aliens feed them the best food, while Lisa thing otherwise and find out that making them fat so they could eat them but that was not true after all and makes on the Aliens, so Aliens send the Simpsons back to Earth.
They had good funny jokes in this story and it not as good as the first story but did like the away the Aliens look, scary for cartoon but not really scary.
Back in Treehouse Lisa reads Edgar Allan Poe's classic tale of horror We see as the Narrator , Marge as Lenore and Bart as the raven.
I did not find that story that funny at all but okay but I did like the end of episode, at the end of episode Homer says he hates Halloween because kids story's scared him.
Really good Simpsons Halloween episode.
