Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
It’s everyone’s (well almost everyone’s) favorite time in TSTO, the annual Treehouse of Horror Event! Yes, Halloween in Springfield has always been big deal in TSTO and this year is no exception! Of course, an all-new event means all-new premium content in our stores, just tempting us to drop those pink sprinkles!
As we all know, that limited-time label can tempt us to grab everything in sight because it’ll be gone soon. But don’t sweat it! That’s where we come in to tell you what’s worth those donuts and what you might want to hold off on.

It was a foregone conclusion that I would get all the premiums this update. It was disappointing there was no animation to the conveyor belt but it really looks great with the Donut torture device and the technician’s animation really sets the stage. I’m happy with it.
Disappointing, I haven’t seen any animation/visuals on this item?
We need a moving lard lad EA…..
There. Said my piece.
Was really hoping it be used on Homer. But oh well. No regrets.
Especially with that Questline! 😂
Bought it
Smaller then I expected
Disappointed it doesn’t have animation like the stairway to nowhere does
You mean animated flames at the end of the Conveyer Belt? 🤔
I see your point, but it’s still amusing to watch during those Character Tasks. 😉
Really wish they had made “chop up Homer into hot dog meat” a visual task in homage to THOH 4
