Prologue: Bart talks to the viewers in a room with paintings lampooned by the Simpsons.

Bart ignores her, continuing to present the episode and telling three scary stories.
The Devil and Homer Simpson: Homer laments that he would sell his soul for a donut. The Devil promptly appears, producing a contract (which Homer signs) and a donut. Despite his attempt to outsmart the Devil by not eating the last piece of the donut, Homer inevitably eats the final piece anyway while half-asleep raiding the fridge. The Devil returns to collect, but Marge insists on having a trial, to which the Devil reluctantly agrees.
Terror at 5½ Feet: Bart witnesses a gremlin attacking the school bus and tries to warn everyone, but nobody believes him because they don't see the gremlin. With each warning, Bart gets deeper into trouble while the gremlin further damages the bus.

Lisa becomes more suspicious when Mr. Burns invites the family over for dinner, ending with Bart becoming a vampire also.

==Trivia==
* There are a few firsts that this season has to offer, and here they are in the list:
# This season replaces it's showrunners again for the 2nd time because Al Jean & Mike Reiss completely stopped serving as the show's showrunners in favor of concentrating on their new show, called The Critic. The staff & crew hired David Mirkin as the new showrunner & this will be start to happen with the 1st episode that they produced for Season 5. However, there are 2 episodes that were shelved after being produced in Season 4, and because of that, Al Jean & Mike Reiss were the showrunners of the show during this season's airing for the final time. Incase you don't know, those 2 held over episodes are "Cape Feare" & "Homer's Barbershop Quartet". Further detail, Al Jean can make a come back as a showrunner for the show for the show's 13th aired season in 2001-2002, which took place and happened 7 years after this season has finished airing it's episodes on TV.
# On the topic of crew, from 1989-1993, the previous four seasons of the show had different people who would help with the producers to write the episodes. However, starting right with this season, things are different, as the old Season 1 writers had left the show after Season 4's production was done & the staff hired many new writers for this season. Again, this season had holdovers from the last season, which meant that Cape Feare & Homer's Barbershop Quartet, despite being new, Season 5 episodes, were the last 2 in the episode production and television airing order to feature the old fashioned writers.
# As of this season, the show has produced and provided viewers with 100 episodes, making this the 1st season to feature an episode number milestone. Speaking of milestones and 100 episodes, the hundredth episode is Sweet Seymour Skinner's Baadasssss Song, which would go on the air on the TV airwaves for the first time on Thursday, April 28th, 1994.
* This season's production code is 1Fxx.
