Treehouse of Horror-avsnitten

Treehouse of Horror ("skräckens koja") är det avsnitt av TV-serien Simpsons som varje år visas runt Halloween sedan den andra säsongen. Varje avsnitt består av tre korta berättelser där familjen Simpson medverkar i, eller personer som efterliknar dem i utseende och röster. Under de första säsongerna gick avsnittet under namnet "The Simpsons Halloween Special".

Treehouse of Horror är också en serietidning utgiven av Bongo Comics i USA som till 2007 gick under namnet "Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror". Ett antal historier ur serietidningarna finns samalade i Treehouse of Horror Reprint som även delvis innehåller nytt material.

Avsnitten utspelar sig utanför seriens normala handling och förändrar inte seriens ordinarie historia eller handling. Första avsnittet sändes på tv-kanalen Fox den 25 oktober 1990 under namnet ”The Simpsons Halloween Special.

Vinjetten skiljer sig också från originalet och delar av namnet på creditlistan är förändrade till mer "skrämmande". Vissa av avsnitten har haft en hög åldersgräns i en del länder. Temat i avsnitten är ofta parodier på nuvarande händelser i USA och filmer, romaner, pjäser samt TV-program.

The Simpsons: Night of the Living Treehouse of Horror är ett plattformsspel utvecklat av Software Creations för THQ till Game Boy Color som utspelar sig i avsnitten.
