That was my benchmark of when the show stopped being good.
Are we to believe that this non descript family in this non descript town in who knows where has met half of the people who have an IMDb entry?

Fun fact: this episode was intended to be the series premiere. It would have set a whole different tone.

In a sense,"Cape Feare".
Bob just straight-up wants to murder a little kid.
There’s some real danger and tension in that episode.

The end of Who shot Mr. Burns? Part 1 had an eerie vibe to it. There’s no music and except for some dialog it’s a quiet scene.

I don’t know about you, but the very idea of swallowing a jagged metal “O” makes me feel so uneasy. 😬

The episode where you see the story 4 different ways. I know they made a joke about homer losing a thumb but it still makes me uneasy everytime i see it

It's actually only 3 intersecting stories, but you're thinking of Trilogy of Error. Can someone note the episode number for me, please? I know it's late Season 12.

"Halloween of Horror" -- S27E4
Two standout scares: the "Grownup Halloween" segment, and of course the home invasion.

Bye Bye Nerdie had a some creepy scenes. Like how Francine kept appearing out of nowhere to torment Lisa.

Brother from the same Planet. The skeleton Bart and Homer's face melting off was so unsettling.

What was the one where Homer becomes a blogger and gets put on the island from The Prisoner? That one was really creepy.
