Halloween Episodes

The season cometh, and so I have prepared a list of the best Halloween themed episodes from some of my favourite TV shows. Hopefully, there's something here to your taste! I've ordered the episodes from top to bottom in my opinion, although there's not really a bottom because I've purposefully avoided episodes that are not good but might still be Halloween themed (fuck any Treehouse of Horror beyond, at a real big push, Season 20). There's also some episodes I haven't seen yet (namely newest seasons of Bob's Burgers and a lot of newer Simpsons) due to me living abroad and not having access to them!

Bob's Burgers

Every episode of Bob's Burgers is amazing, and that obviously includes the Halloween themed adventures.

The Hauntening: Season 6, Episode 3

Full Bars: Season 3, Episode 2

Tina and the Real Ghost: Season 5, Episode 2

Fort Night: Season 4, Episode 2

The Wolf of Wharf Street: Season 8, Episode 3

Nightmare on Ocean Avenue: Season 9, Episode 4

Teen-A-Witch: Season 7, Episode 3

Honourable Mentions:

Dawn of the Peck: Season 5, Episode 4

The Simpsons

I try to make it a tradition in my house that we watch Treehouse of Horror episodes on Halloween. And the month of October. And the rest of the year when the feeling takes me. Or when my binge watching comes across one.

Treehouse of Horror IV: Season 5, Episode 5

Treehouse of Horror VI: Season 7, Episode 6

Treehouse of Horror V: Season 6, Episode 6

Treehouse of Horror VII: Season 8, Episode 1

Treehouse of Horror II: Season 3, Episode 7

Treehouse of Horror VIII: Season 9, Episode 4

Treehouse of Horror IX: Season 10, Episode 4

Treehouse of Horror X: Season 11, Episode 4

Treehouse of Horror: Season 2, Episode 3

Treehouse of Horror III: Season 4, Episode 5

Treehouse of Horror XII: Season 13, Episode 1

Treehouse of Horror XIII: Season 14, Episode 1

Treehouse of Horror XX: Season 21, Episode 4

Treehouse of Horror XIX: Season 20, Episode 4

Treehouse of Horror XVII: Season 18, Episode 4

South Park

South Park has managed to retain an acceptable quality of Halloween themed episodes throughout the years, but the earlier classics are hard to fault.

Pink Eye: Season 1, Episode 7

Korn's Groovy Ghost Pirate Mystery: Season 3, Episode 10

Spookyfish: Season 2, Episode 15

A Nightmare on Facetime: Season 16, Episode 12

Pandemic and Pandemic 2: The Startling: Season 12, Episodes 10 & 11

Dead Celebrities: Season 13, Episode 8

Scoots: Season 22, Episode 5

Sons a Witches: Season 21, Episode 6

Hell on Earth 2006: Season 10, Episode 11

Futurama

It is an absolute disgrace that there aren't more properly spooky themed Futurama episodes.

The Honking: Season 3, Episode 1

F Is For Family

This isn't even one of the better episodes of F Is For Family, but I love F, and I love Halloween.

F Is For Halloween: Season 1, Episode 4

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

My order here is controversial, I know. Who Got dee Pregnant? is definitely more Halloween themed, but Maureen's wedding is legitimately terrifying. But I gotta give it to the pregnant mystery, because I literally quote Charlie's funniest line constantly despite the fact that the line has never naturally fit into any conversation I have ever been in: "He eats theatre people."

Who Got Dee Pregnant?: Season 6, Episode 7

The Maureen Ponderosa Wedding Massacre: Season 8, Episode 3
