Treehouse of Horror (The Simpsons episode) [SEP] Introduction
"Treehouse of Horror" is the third episode of "The Simpsons"' second season. It originally aired on the Fox network in the United States on October 25, 1990. The episode was inspired by 1950s horror comics, and begins with a disclaimer that it may be too scary for children. It is the first Treehouse of Horror episode. These episodes do not obey the show's rule of realism and are not treated as canon. The opening disclaimer and a panning shot through a cemetery with humorous tombstones were features that were used sporadically in the "Treehouse of Horror" series and eventually dropped.
