Plot[edit]
Homer is taking the family on a secret vacation and refuses to tell them where they're going. As they drive along a mountain road, the Crazy Cat Lady gets in front of their car. Homer veers out of the way, and the car goes over the side of the mountain and crashes into the trees below. Coincidentally, the crash site is next to Henry K. Duff's Cabin, the place where Duff Beer inventor Henry K. Duff first created the recipe. The rest of the family isn't impressed with the cabin, despite Homer telling them that the cabin is part of history.
Homer finds a tape recording of Henry K. Duff on his desk along with the book containing the recipe. He plays the tape, and Henry Duff says that nobody should read the recipe for Duff Beer aloud because doing so awoke evil spirits that possessed his family, and they were coming to kill him. After the recording ends, Homer immediately reads the recipe out loud. Outside the cabin, Bart sees weird green fumes rise out of the ground. Meanwhile, Lisa takes the book from Homer and realizes that it's not in any language she recognizes, but Homer says that it's beer code. Marge starts to have a bad feeling and tells Homer to get the car out of the trees so they can leave. Meanwhile, the green fumes come through the window of the cabin.
Homer goes to look for a chainsaw to get the car down, but doesn't find one in the shed. Bart then comes home with a chainsaw, and Homer runs back into the house. Marge and Maggie attack Homer, tackle him to the ground, and start biting him. Lisa, who isn't under the effects of the curse, grabs a shotgun and fires it into the air, scaring off Marge and Maggie. Lisa tells Homer that they have to go and get help. She goes to run for help while Homer destroys the recipe. However, Lisa is quickly attacked by cursed trees. Homer goes to destroy the recipe but sees Marge, Bart, and Maggie by the fire, looking completely normal. However, when he tells them he's going to burn the book, they attack him. Homer distracts them and throws the book into the fire. However, this doesn't stop the curse, and the family is still possessed. Homer runs out of the cabin and tries to get away, but he's attacked by Lisa, who is now possessed. Homer grabs the chainsaw and swings it up, but realizes that it's heavier than he thought. The chainsaw cuts through the tree the car is in, and the car falls through the ground, creating a pit that the whole family falls into.
The pit leads into an underground facility where the rich and famous of Springfield are located, with monitors showing camera feeds from all over the cabin and surrounding area. Rainier Wolfcastle and Mr. Burns explain that they all became bored with legal, and some illegal, forms of entertainment, so they started using the fumes from the brewing of Duff Beer, which they called Duff Vapor, as a powerful hallucinogen. They lure unsuspecting people out to the cabin and release the vapor, making them go crazy. Homer becomes annoyed, realizing that there is no beer there, as the rest of the family regains their senses. Homer becomes angry at everyone for ruining his family's vacation, because he's the only one who ruins the family vacations. He then kills all the rich people with the chainsaw as Bart says that the vacation didn't turn out so bad after all.
