So grab your donut, settle in, and let’s dive into the bizarre universe of The Simpsons where the line between fiction and reality appears to blur… would you be surprised if zombies made an appearance next? I mean, who wouldn’t want to know what’s next on the horror agenda? You won’t believe what they might have in store next! LEARN MORE.

ICYMI, The Simpsons has ‘predicted’ a fair few world events over the years.

The TV show has long been associated with seemingly foreseeing some of the biggest global news, including the Hawk Tuah girl, a major music collab, the UK’s cost of living crisis and the US 2024 election map.

Back in 2000, the season 11 episode ‘Bart to the Future’ aired and eerily referenced Trump’s rise to power as the 45th US president.

Fans have always been completely baffled over how the show does it, but turns out there could be some predictions on the way for 2025 – and it’s not looking like good news.

A global apocalypse

Hubpages reminds us that in one episode of The Simpsons, ‘Thank God It’s Doomsday’, Marge decides to give the kids a haircut, but Bart and Lisa want to go to a new, cooler hair salon in the mall.

Homer takes the kids there anyway, despite Marge objecting, but it goes horribly wrong when chaos ensues at the salon and the pair are left with half-shaved heads.

Hiding from some of their classmates, Bart, Lisa and Homer run inside a movie theater where they end up watching a film about the Rapture.

After the movie, Homer is frightened and believes the Rapture is on its way. He begins saying that ‘stars are falling from the sky’ and ‘the end is near’.

While people believe Homer at first, the apocalypse never arrives and he is outcast, but he soon realises he actually got the date wrong and the apocalypse is still set to happen.

Moments later, he is floating in heaven where he pleads with God to save his family. After some negotiating, God agrees to turn back time and Homer awakens from his ‘dream’ before reuniting with his loved ones

While it might sound a little far-fetched, fans believe the themes of time travel and apocalypse could be a prediction for 2025.

World War 3

With global conflicts heightening in 2024, it’s unsurprising that people have been taking a World War 3 prediction seriously.

Since The Simpsons aired, there’s been a few references to a potential World War 3. In one 1987 short, Homer is convinced that WW3 has started and insists the family rush to a homemade shelter in the garden.

Meanwhile, a separate scene from ‘Lisa’s Wedding’ sees Lisa’s British fiancè, Hugh Parkfield, visit Moe’s Tavern with Homer and Bart in the future.

Moe acknowledges that Hugh is British and tells him that they ‘saved their a** in WW2’, to which Hugh responds: “Well, we saved your a**e in WW3.”

Eerily, Moe simply says: “That’s true.”

“Since many of The Simpsons’ predictions have come true, will this prediction about World War 3 also come true?” one person asked on Twitter.

Zombie Apocalypse

An episode released in 2009 titled ‘Treehouse of Horror XX’ sees the world infected by a virus that transforms humans into zombies.

Bart seems to be the only person immune to the virus, so the family rush to reach a safe zone to protect him. But in a bizarre twist, the residents of Springfield believe eating Bart could make them immune to the zombie disease.

In an even more bonkers conclusion to the episode, Bart manages to ‘vaccinate’ the population by contaminating their food before they eat it.

Most of it is totally unrealistic, of course, but it does have themes we’ve seen before during Covid times.

Social media users think they could be on to something, with one writing on TikTok: “This is what i have been asking myself all these years after watching zombie movies, thinking who brought the idea? And I knew it that one day it will come into reality.”

Turns out it was also predicted in 2024, however, with another writing in 2023: “The Simpsons has ‘predicted’ a zombie apocalypse in 2024.

“Are you prepared?”
