Celebrated since 1990 as a groundbreaking cultural phenomenon, 20 years later, The Simpsons also includes the world's most popular and most sold brands. The Simpsons are famous for the performances of famous guest stars who gladly lend their voices to their cartoon counterparts. In January 2000, the yellow heros received their own star on the legendary Hollywood Walk of Fame. Since spring 2008, visitors to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida and Hollywood, California can also go on a fast ride on the roller coaster "The Simpsons Ride forward."

The Simpsons - Treehouse of Horror (Halloween & Simpsons)
You are already in the middle of Halloween fever and still looking for a suitable TV program for the 31st October? How about the Simpsons this year? As you will already know, there is usually one or more series where horror and spooky ghosts, vampires and skeletons, accompany the Simpsons family. A perfect blend of dread, horror, fear and comedy give a hand.
Why should you avoid the Simpsons for Halloween? Correct! As a Simpsons fan, you should also not avoid them on Halloween. Especially on Halloween, the Simpsons and other citizens of Springfield show their dark side. Magical moments and creepy scenes one after another and the interested spectators notice many a new features of their popular cartoon heroes. The numerous puzzles, which occur especially in the episodes around Halloween, can leave no enthusiastic Simpson fan a more quiet night. Too much to think about why only one or the other happens to Bart & Company. So belonds to this a burning Homer Simpson, a headless Krusty who rides a horse through the forest, or a tipsy Moe on the gallows rather than to have the rather more normal things.
As you will have already recognized, here is the question of collection of the episode "Treehouse of Horror". These special three-part episodes produced, in addition to other episodes, since the 2nd season. Matt Groening has designed these special episodes, especially for Halloween time. The episodes themselves are often designed with close relation to Halloween and other series. This way the viewer spots so many similarities to other series such as, for example, Sex and the City.
But what makes these episodes fun and scary during the same viewing experience? Often the episodes is about inexplicable, supernatural or spooky stories. Many devils, zombies, skeletons and other fabulous creatures preferred to accompany the Halloween sequels. Also true events are brought in warmly by Matt Groening in the various episodes. One of the emerging advantage of the episodes of the Simpsons is that they can live freely in the design. Thus, the actions need not involve the usual consequences, and many a star may die. So it may well happen that Moe dies, but, in the next episode, it happen again. Also logical connections may even be pushed to the side. It can therefore be said that these episodes do not influence subsequent consequences.
Another feature of these particular episodes is that every previously aired episode included the aliens Kang and Kodos. Even in the permanent trailer, the logo is always very different in the Halloween episodes.
The previous episodes (and some stories) were the following:
Season 2: Horror Free House (Bad Dream House; Hungry are the damned; The Raven)

October 20, 2008: What is Candy Corn?
To address the particularities of the Halloween festival a little, we present here the so-called "Candy Corn". These candy corns are virtually unknown in Europe, but enjoyed in North America, and they're extremely popular. If you tap on the various search engines without any previous knowledge of the name Candy Corn, you will legitimately ask, what does it have to do with Halloween at all. The sound of the name "Candy Corn" is anything but scary...
So, now what is this mysterious "Candy Corn" to us Europeans? Candy Corns have the form of a white corn grain (hence the name corn) and have the exact combination of colors: white-orange-yellow. Only the real candy corns start the provided colour combination: white-orange-yellow. Never let any other Candy Corn pass as the original. Candy corns are produced mainly from very sweet corn and are therefore one favorite of children who love them in other respects. Especially noteworthy, it was already mentioned, that Candy Corns are only and are manufactured specifically for Halloween. Each weighs 1.2 grams, so they are similar to a kernel of corn, not particularly large.
But why exactly is Candy Corn produced from corn and not from other ingredients such as sugar? The reason is mostly likely that corn, in America, has a special meaning. And especially on Halloween, which coincides with the known Celtic festival "Samhain", descended and traditionally coincided with the American Thanksgiving, is added to the particularly important food.

6th of October 2008 - The summer and the sun finally say goodbye for this year now and the autumn temperatures fall below the 20 degree mark and now comes cold, rainy weather, which invites you to debauchery by the fireplace, tea and hot chestnuts, daily. The leaves turn yellow and red and begin to gradually fall from the trees. And with the first cold nights, you guessed it, its now the winter, the holidays of All Saints' Day and Christmas ... And like every year to keep this country in addition to the first Christmas decoration product articles and also the first to eerily beautiful, now well-known and widely beloved Halloween - costumes and decorations find their way into our shops and stores. On the night, the 31st of October until 1st November, it's finally time again, Halloween is celebrated!
The term Halloween is derived from the words All Hallows Eve, which simply means Halloween night.
Even here in Austria, Halloween, which is derived from the Americans, is enjoyed - party now extremely popular. One puts on many different spooky clothes, scary makeup - moves about in the neighborhood to beg for candy. In the whole city is full of children and young people who are dressed as witches, wizards, goblins, ghosts, monsters, zombies and knock on any doors ... And even in the households themselves are often skillful, as decorative, cobwebs witch hats, pumpkins or ghosts in scene, the rooms are dim and candles bring a little light in the dark walls. Halloween is, since quite a long time, a very appreciated and widespread custom.
But what is this "novel, imported" tradition all about? In fact, the roots of the Halloween we know today are quite far back in history. The origin is behind the Celtic festival "Samhain", in which the transition of summer to winter was celebrated. It was, as the name suggests, a celebration of the Celtic god Samhain, who was the ruler of the kingdom of the dead and guarded the gates of the beyond. On that night it was believed that the boundaries between this world and the realm of the dead would blur and the spirits of the dead have the opportunity to interact with, and contact, the living for a few hours. This was possible only if the spirits can posses the body of a living person, which is what the people were afraid of. Thus began one to dress up as the dead, because that way you could possibly avoid the possible possession. The spirits would not discover the people and move past them without hesitation ... This Celtic festival became a party, similar to the familiar Christian All Saints' Day, originally celebrated on the 13th of May, but for several centuries (at the initiative of Pope Gregory, the third) was celebrated on the 1st of November and, subsequently, the feast of All Hallows Eve, the Halloween - party. This was originally celebrated on the prefered Catholic, British Isles, including Ireland, for example. From this point, it came to America during the 19th Century and was subsequently one of the most important festivals in the U.S. and Canada. Especially in the last decades, the Halloween Customs spilled more and more into Europe, which meant that, also in this country, more and more people find their joy in the said tradition.
And by now, both big and small fans have enjoyed the eerily beautiful Halloween stories of the 31st of October, the huge bags full of candy and the amazing costumes.
