Not too bad, overall, with a reasonable mix of story types. Hooray. I'm not sure if the tiny third story (is 80 seconds the shortest act so far?) is purely filler or what, but at least that answers the question of why the first commercial break didn't come right after the title.

Previous episode stuff
4F20: A different kind of plant/tree gag used

Meta
Not only does Bart actually tell a scary story in a treehouse again for once, but Homer remarks on the annual tradition, etc. (Plus Kang and Kodos gag at end, one of the ambulatory trees reappearing in the final story, chalkboard gag...)

Joke analysis
Audrey II identifies as a tree, but that ruins the joke (that he's a "trans-plant"); the fact that trees are a subset of plants aside, the bit could work if, well, reworked!
