Stephen King Is Getting His Own 'Treehouse Of Horror' Special On 'The Simpsons'
LOADING ERROR LOADING Stephen King is about to find out that there’s no better jester than “The Simpsons.” Fans of the long-running animated show are already likely aware that America’s presiding master of horror previously appeared in a cameo. While one of the special Halloween-themed episodes will be traditionally structured into three vignettes of around seven minutes each, the other will tackle King’s horror masterpiece “It” for the entire runtime. EMMANUEL DUNAND via Getty Images “We’ve never done a single fantastical, bloody, scary, dark story, told over the scope of the 20 minutes and 40 seconds that is an episode,” Selman told Variety. It’s just one beloved thing, this show ‘Death Note.’” Selman also confirmed that any plans for future “Simpsons” movies or video games were currently on hold, and he teased guest stars for the 34th season, including actor Melissa McCarthy.
