About this title

Review:

Bart Simpson and the rest of the gang from Springfield star in this hilarious collection of Halloween-themed tales. There are parodies of The Blob (Sideshow Bob turns soft), The Exorcist (Lisa's possessed by Madonna), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Homer discovers pod people), Cat People (Bart purrs in the moonlight), and Little Shop of Horrors (Mmmm... donuts!). And that's not the half of it! In between these feature comics stories are funny, frightful bits like fake ads featuring the aliens Kang and Kodos, "A Kid's Guide to Monster-Proofing Your Room," "Captain McCallister's Ghost Stories of the Briny Deep," and four Mad Libs-inspired variations of "The Curse of the Thing." Comics fans take note: contributing writers to this collection include stars Mike Allred, Peter Bagge, Paul Dini, Evan Dorkin, Bill Morrison, James Robinson, and Jeff Smith. --Jim Pascoe
