The cryptkeeper of comedy, Matt Groening, the creator of 'The Simpsons', presents his newest collection of hell-arious humour. Join Matt Groening, the King of Comic Chaos and the creator of America's favourite family, 'The Simpsons', as he cooks up a creepy cornucopia of knee-knocking, white knuckling, knee-slapping knick-knacks. Brace yourself for beer-bellied beasties, frozen cavemen, ghoulish groundskeepers, price-gouging Kwik-E clerks, wonderful wizards, drooling aliens, banned books, talking horses, defective duplicates and parallel worlds. If you have a taste for terror and a hankering for humour, satisfy your appetite with this deliriously delicious treat not for the faint of heart or the very ticklish!
I’ve always been a fan of the Simpsons and love collecting the comics. This is a great one!

Although a little uneven, this, the latest print edition to THE SIMPSONS TREEHOUSE OF HORROR featuring all new original artwork and stories, is still an entertaining and very funny book. Rarely is it really scary, but there are some truly inspired moements (MOE'S URBAN TALES OF TERROR: #62: THE PHANTOM GIRLFRIEND!!), visual gags and some daring plots (REASONS TO AVOID A ZOMBIE-RUN RESTURANT and HELL-O-WEEN, the last and best story of the entire book) are to be found inside. A major draw for these stories is the often new and original take on both the artwork and the actual look of the Simpsons. Artists are given free regin here to play with the look and style of The Simpsons, as well as placing them in odd and strange situations (even more odd and strange than even the television series is allowed to go). While third in the series, it shows no sign of getting old or growing stale. Perhaps not the best TREEHOUSE ever, but still remarkable and highly recommdned.
A must have for any Simpsons fan

For those of you who are fans of the hit television show "The Simpsons", you are probably well acquainted with the legendary "Treehouse of Horror" episodes that have become a Halloween tradition. These episodes have proven to be such a seasonal favorite that Groening and the gang have decided to dish out even more tales of terror in "Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror: Heebie-Jeebie Hullabaloo".Hullabaloo is a collection of comics and sketches that cleverly capture the humor and style of the Simpsons Halloween specials. Much like the television version, the main stories in Hullabaloo are parodies of famous horror films. The first story in the book is a parody of the classic horror film "The Blob". In the sketch, Simpsons character Sideshow Bob takes an experimental treatment that transforms him into "Sideshow Blob". Seizing the opportunity to take revenge on his nemesis Bart, Sideshow Blob squeezes out of prison and wreaks havoc on Springfield.After Springfield is saved from "Sideshow Blob", they barely have time to recover before Lisa becomes possessed by the evil spirit of Madonna in "The Exorsister", a combo-parody of the infamous "Exorcist" and the even more infamous Madonna. The book continues with additional parodies of films such as "Little Shop of Horrors", "The Invasion of the Body Snatchers", and "Cat People".In between the main features of the book are a plethora of comics, guides, and stories hosted by and featuring an assortment of Springfield characters. One of these guides features everyone's favorite slack-jawed yokel, Cletus Del Roy. Cletus presents to us "A Yokels Guide to Halloween" which teaches us how to celebrate Halloween like "Edgar Allan" Poe white trash. Another extra features Bart's "Guide to Low-Budget Costumes" which shows you how to cheaply transform yourself into horrid monsters such as "Vaselino, The Thing That Wouldn't Dry". You'll also find the story of "Elijah Dunn and the One-Armed Nun", Evil Dr. Burn's "Goodtime Servant Factory", "Springfield in Hell", and much, much more.Hullabaloo is colorful, fun, entertaining, and just in time for Halloween. The comical cast breathes sarcasm and humor into favorite horror classics. If you are a fan of the Simpsons and Halloween, then this book will not disappoint you.
Funny!
