This go-around is done in the style of Night Gallery with Bart hosting the in-betweens while babysitting Maggie as Marge goes to get gift-shop earrings, but not before telling Bart that this year's Halloween special may be too scary for some viewers.
The live event is set for Wednesday, October 31st beginning at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. With a lineup of special guests and hosted by the wonderful Josh Gates, regardless of the events that take place, it looks to be a good time.
The Halloween Special IV
Ever since the cult zombie classic Shaun of the Dead hit theaters exactly 10 years ago, many fans have been clamoring for a sequel. While that won't be happening anytime soon, Simon Pegg announced today on his Twitter page that he will reprise his role as Shaun, with Nick Frost returning as Ed for Phineas and Ferb's Halloween special on the Disney Channel this October.
Hopefully we'll get to see what these Shaun of the Dead characters will look like before the Phineas and Ferb Halloween special airs in October, so stay tuned for more updates.
This assignment becomes available after Conquering Hoxxes IV assignment has been completed. It's focused on the big machinery Missions and will reward 50 of each crafting materials, credits and a special helmet.
The Treehouse of Horror series, formerly known as The Simpsons Halloween Specials, are an annual tradition in which there is a special Halloween episode consisting of three separate, self-contained pieces. These pieces usually involve the family in some horror, science fiction, or supernatural setting; they always take place outside the normal continuity of the show (and are therefore considered to be non-canon) and completely abandon any pretense of being realistic.
Regular Simpsons characters play humorous special roles, often being killed in gruesome ways by monsters or even each other. Groundskeeper Willie has died many times in the Treehouse of Horror episodes, mostly by being stuck in the back with an ax, impaled by a sharp object, burned by a furnace, and even once by a dolphin. The Halloween episodes also regularly parody many classic horror and science fiction films and episodes such as The Shining, "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet", "To Serve Man", "Living Doll", "It's a Good Life", "A Kind of a Stopwatch", "The Little People", "Little Girl Lost", Twilight, 28 Days Later, and others.
The yearly Halloween special was named "Treehouse of Horror" because the original special depicted the Simpson children in their treehouse telling scary stories to one another. In later years, the series dropped the framing device of characters telling stories but kept the Treehouse title. It also takes reference from a classic horror movie Dr. Terror House of Horrors which was an anthology of six different horror stories.
Another mainstay of the Halloween shows is the yearly appearance of the two space aliens Kang and Kodos, introduced in the second segment of the first "Treehouse of Horror" episode. However they are not always important to any story in the special; starting with "Treehouse of Horror III" they began appearing just to keep up with the tradition. While they have had significant parts in other "Treehouse of Horror" episodes, they often only appear in the middle of a completely different story, for example, a story about zombies attacking the town will suddenly switch to them watching in outer space, watching all the events and laughing maniacally at the Earthlings' suffering, before switching back to the actual story. In much later years Kang and Kodos would sometimes appear at either the beginning or end of the episode, outside of any of the stories; for example, one year they appeared between the last segment and the credits wondering "Why The Simpsons producers hadn't called us to be in this episode?". Soon they get a call offering them to be on a commercial for something called "Old Navy".
From the 2nd Halloween special onwards, the Gracie Films logo (excluding VI and XIX), there is a pipe organ playing the jingle and a girl screaming loudly in the background (which sounds more like a whistle), in II and III, the organ played without the scream, on IV, the scream was added in. The scream was replaced with other quotes or Homer's screams. On IX, the organ played, but the scream was replaced with Regis Philbin screaming, "My eyes, my beautiful eyes!". On XV, the scream was replaced with Homer screaming loudly through this logo and 20th Century Fox Television logo, similar to The Blunder Years. On XXIV, the scream was replaced with the mob saying "One of us!". On XXVI, the scream was replaced with Homer-zilla's roar.
All of the Halloween Specials are officially named Treehouse of Horror, but the Halloween specials from Treehouse of Horror to Treehouse of Horror XII were dubbed The Simpsons Halloween Special. The name "Treehouse of Horror" was not given until the airing of Treehouse of Horror XIII, though dubbed as "The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror" instead of just "Treehouse of Horror". This would be changed from Treehouse of Horror XIV onwards and would remain ever since.
In 1995, Matt Groening's Bongo Comics Group, a company specializing in Simpsons-based publications, began a series of comic book adaptations of the Treehouse of Horror series. These annual editions are released in September each year, and as of September 2007 there will be thirteen issues available. Originally, guest writers from other comic book companies were invited to submit scripts to Bongo, where the comics themselves would then be drawn by Bongo staff. Beginning with #5 (1999), the "guests" were allowed to submit both stories and art, wherein at the most Bongo would only supply the lettering and colourings of the stories. However, there are few cases of this rule being broken; i.e., "The Catastrophe on Substitute Springfields" (#7, 2001) and "The Legend of Batterface" (#10, 2004). The comics were also more surreal than the episodes, with more gore, and more scary scenarios than the show would do.
If Star Wars is a theme you want to tackle this Halloween, specifically Princess Leia, it could be fun to tackle her look in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope. Especially with the iconic Carrie Fisher in mind, dressing up as Princess Leia could add a whole new level of meaning to your holiday this year. In order to do that, however, it might be a good idea to learn how to dress like Princess Leia in Episode IV - A New Hope first. Although her outfit seems pretty straight forward, there are a few creative ways to approach the iconic look.
"Robotech II: The Sentinels Halloween Special 1" was a special issue of Robotech II: The Sentinels. This special issue takes place between "Robotech II: The Sentinels, Book 4", issues #10 and #11.
