Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Murky water, trees have changed colors, and leaves are blowing in Springfield, that can only mean one thing…the annual Treehouse of Horror update is upon us! Yes, with this annual event we never know if we’ll get a trick or a treat, if it’ll be Halloween-y or spoof-y…but it arrives in our pocket-sized towns nonetheless year after year. And this year, marks the 10th…yes the TENTH…Treehouse of Horror update in TSTO. So what does EA have in store for us this year? Dinosaurs! In true Treehouse of Horror spoof style. As always, loads of dialogue with this one, so be sure to read along to see what happens! And of course, I’ll be posting it as each week wraps up…
THOH XXXII Event follows the same event structure of the Multi-Events before it. This event consists of 4 parts (or Acts), with each part lasting just over a week and taking us through a new part of the event!
For Act 4 we’re tasked with collecting Syringes! Each part of the story will unlock another prize themed for the final part of the story. So let’s take a look at the details behind Act 4 and the Turbo Tappin’ Version for Better Fighting Through Science…

And that’s it my friends! All you need to know for the fourth, and final, Act of the THOH XXXII questline!
Thoughts on the questline? Prizes? Event overall? Sound off below, you know we love hearing from you!
Didn’t get my Red Devil either.
i am stuck. all my people are in the Simpson house and wont get out. After collecting the funds, they don’t show there but aren’t anywhere else. I cant get Hank Scorpio since he is stuck in there too. Any suggestions?
There’s really no option other than trying to store and replace individual buildings characters came with (for example for Hank you’ll have to store the volcano lair). Otherwise you can try contacting EA and see if they can roll your game back to just before you started that task, that’ll knock the characters out. And if you have to redo the task, DO NOT SEND ALL THE CHARACTERS IN SPRINGFIELD THERE AT ONCE! Just the 3-5 required to complete the task…
Thank you Alissa, storing the volcano worked. I have already sent out a cry to EA but I was unsure when they would respond.
I really hope “Be outraged” task is temporary. I’m not sending 500 people to the brown house 3 times a day.
Yesterday, Mindy made me buy her a new beach chair! She wouldn’t recognize any of the several, unoccupied existing ones I had in my town to do her regular 12-hour task, but, when I bought a new one and placed it next to an existing one, she walked right past the older one and plopped herself down in the new one next to it. Weird!!
And that’s why Homer made the right choice picking Marge over Mindy!
Okay, I just figured it out… I just went to put Mindy on her 12-hour task again and encountered the same issue. I decided to see what would happen if I stored one if the beach chairs and then put it out it again. When I stored the beach chair, I discovered that several of my characters who were on an event tasks were suddenly freed up (unfortunately). I then realized that, even though you couldn’t see it, they were using the beach chair (although it seems like they weren’t necessarily using one specific beach chair – I have a feeling that if I had stored a different beach chair the same thing would’ve happened). So, I then sent the event characters back on their event task, then re-placed the beach chair that I had stored, and then was able to send Mindy on her 12-hour task. What a pain! Next time, I’ll store a beach chair, send the event characters on their task, then take the stored beach chair out, place it, and then send my non-event characters on their 12-hour tasks for the night.
Same here – I have 8 folks I keep on 12 hour tasks!
Just completed the task for Sentient Red Devil Realty Sign but didn’t receive it?
Haven’t gotten that far yet, anyone else have insight? Otherwise I’ll try to look into it tonight in my b game.
It’s just a “pet” right?
Nothing else?
My giant Red Devil likes to hang around the Stairway To Nowhere mocking the falling riders.
I just received mine with no issues..
The prizes for act 4 are rubbish the actual event as not been too bad overall but act 4 meh
