The Simpsons Halloween Episodes: Every 'Treehouse of Horror' Special, Ranked

Can any TV series rival The Simpsons for the sheer number of Halloween episodes? Since Season 2, the series has given fans at least one new "Treehouse of Horror" anthology episode every single year. Early on, these stories were more directly horror-centric, but since then "Treehouse of Horror" has become something of a clearinghouse for stuff the writers can't do during a "regular" episode. And we love it. Well, usually...

In honor of this Halloween tradition, we've ranked every single "Treehouse of Horror" episode so far, up through Season 38's "Treehouse of Horror Presents: The Revengening." Some of them are good enough to rival the best episodes from the show's golden years. Others… well, it's hard to bat a thousand over three decades. Read on for our full list, and after you're done, be sure to check out our recently updated best Simpsons Episodes list and see a preview of a classic Treehouse of Horror comic.

And be sure to check back soon to see where the upcoming "Treehouse of Horror XXXVII" ranks on the list.

"The Diving Bell and the Butterball" is the single-worst "Treehouse of Horror" segment ever, and it's not particularly close. It's essentially one long, profoundly unfunny fart joke. The final segment is an Avatar parody that, like Avatar, has not aged well.

We'll give this episode a slight bit of credit for trying to shake up the formula and tackle five segments instead of the usual three. But predictably, that only means this batch of horror spoofs feels even more rushed and underdeveloped than usual.
