On the upcoming installment of Treehouse of Horror, Homer will find himself facing a mythical monster in an eating contest.

It’s been announced that as part of year’s Treehouse of Horror , Homer will get into an oyster eating contest with the mythical Cthulhu from the works of HP Lovecraft. But here’s the best part; not only will Homer compete with the monster, Homer will come out victorious.

This isn’t exactly surprising because Homer’s appetite is the stuff of legend. Once as a punishment in a previous Halloween special he was fed all the donuts in the World. But Homer did actually manage to consume them all, leaving the punisher dumbfounded.

Seafood challenges are also no problem for Homer as the Sea Captain once kicked him out of his all you can eat seafood buffet because he was literally eating everything. Outraged, Homer then took the Captain to court where they settled on a truce; Homer could literally eat all he wanted while the Captain got to advertise his presence as an attraction.

But if Homer beats the Cthulhu in an eating contest, does that mean it will get angry and try to eat him?

That might not be a good idea, as Homer doesn’t have a history of being good for aliens. When the Simpsons were taken to Kang and Kodos’ home planet, the alien Queen consumed a tiny bit of Homer and immediately died from the effects.

The other question is which segment might the eating contest be in? Since the Cthulhu is a fantasy monster and we already know the episode is satiring Invasion of the Body Snatchers, that’s probably the most likely segment. But it’s also possible that it could be part of the Jurassic Park themed one, especially considering that in a past Treehouse of Horror Homer once time traveled and wiped out all the dinosaurs just by sneezing.

Be sure not to miss Homer out eating a mythical monster when the new Treehouse of Horror airs on Sunday, October 21st.
