− | == History ==
| |
− | The media becomes frenzied when they discover a local vampire (Burns) has attacked and killed a person in [[Springfield]]. Burns then invites his employee, [[Homer Simpson]] and his family for dinner. [[Lisa]] and [[Bart]] become suspicious of Burns and discover his secret lair where they find out his dark secret. Burns bites Bart, turning him into a un-holy creature of the night. After the [[Simpson family]] find out what has happened, they return to Pennsylvania with plans to kill Burns. [[Homer]] hammers a stake into Burns' heart, killing him. However, once the Simpsons return home, Lisa discovers the truth - [[Marge]] is actually the head vampire, not Burns.
