Treehouse of Horror XXXI: School Days, Hell Daze Walkthrough

The Devil is in the Details

Auto starts

Skinner: Okay, set those digital whiteboards up over there. Gently…gently…
Lisa: Digital whiteboards, new computers for every student… Mr. Skinner, did the school win its lawsuit against Burns Slant Drilling?
Skinner: No, Lisa. Sadly, it turns out Mr. Burns locked up all Native American property rights decades ago...
Skinner: ...so the school being built on top of an ancient burial ground is NOT going to finally pay off.
Lisa: Gee, that's…too bad. Then how is the school paying for all this fancy new equipment?
Skinner: We, uh, have a new partnership with a very financially well-off neighboring school district.
Lisa: Shelbyville doesn't have any money, and although half of Europe seems to be located in Springfield now, I don't think they count either.
Skinner: Can't we just have nice things for once?
Lisa: In a public school? No.
Skinner: Uh, just run along now, Lisa. School is no place for children to be asking questions.

Task: Make Lisa Get to the Bottom of This
Time: 60s
Location: Springfield Elementary, Springfield High School, Town Hall or Brown House

Lisa: I've tracked down the superintendent of this flimflam school district, and it's…the devil?!
Old Scratch: Well, one of 'em. I'm the scarier one. You can call me Old Scratch.
Lisa: I don't plan on calling you at all.
Old Scratch: Oh, you will. There are so many portals between Springfield and Hell, you really can't avoid me.
Lisa: I can't believe Principal Skinner allowed this!
Chalmers: Please. Making deals with the devil is way above Seymour's pay grade.
Lisa: Superintendent Chalmers, you must know how devil stories always play out.
Chalmers: No worries. We have a legally binding contract. This deal's on the up and up.
Old Scratch: Or should we say the down and down below. Heh, heh!

Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP

School Days, Hell Daze Pt. 1

Auto starts

Ned: Bart, as your substitute teacher, we need to talk.
Bart: I didn't do it!
Ned: I know you didn't.
Bart: Sorry, that's my knee-jerk response.
Ned: Springfield Elementary has merged with the Bad Place. So…you're headed to our new sister school.
Bart: I don't do well with sisters.
Ned: You don't have to worry about your sister. The redistricting line actually cuts right through the middle of your house. Lisa's not going.
Bart: Cool!
Ned: But Bart Simpson…you're going straight to Heck!

Task: Collect Magic Runes
Task: Make Bart Hell Portal to Hellementary School

Miss Hoover: Don't think of it as "portaled to Hell", think of it as "escaping the misery in Springfield" — lucky brats.
Milhouse: At least we're getting some new kids in return!
Lisa: Yes, but that new girl seems a little strange.
Greta Wolfcastle: What's strange about twisting her head 360 degrees and vomiting hot embers?

Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP

School Days, Hell Daze Pt. 2

Auto starts

Hell Teacher: Class, I'd like to introduce our new transfer student: Beelzebart Simpson.
Beelzebart: Whaddup, down-under dorks?
Hell Teacher: He's from the mortal realm of Springfield.
Hell Teacher: Now Spike, you were explaining how you would torment innocent children?
Hell Boy: Yes. You toss the bees nest right where the kid's playing. The bees get angry and they start stinging the kid.
Beelzebart: That's it? The bees sting him?
Hell Boy: Yeah! Stinging hurts. Nobody likes hurt.
Beelzebart: Boring! The best torments combine physical AND mental "hurt"!
Hell Boy: I s'pose you got a better idea?

Task: Collect Magic Runes
Task: Make Bart Explain Twisted Torments
Time: 2h
Location: Springfield Elementary, Hellscape, Hellport Pentagram or Brown House

Beelzebart: …so that way when the bee stings him, his pants fall down in front of the girls' locker room, and they all laugh!
Hell Teacher: Class, Beelzebart's prank is only theoretical…
Beelzebart: Nuh-uh. I've done it.
Hell Boy and Girl: *gasp*
Hell Teacher: I think we may have a new star pupil in our midst!

Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP

School Days, Hell Daze Pt. 3

Sherri and Terri: Why does the new girl get a nap time and we don't?

Lisa: Don't wake her up! She's gonna blow!

Bart: So then I said, "That's not the only place you can stick a pitchfork!" The teacher gave me an A+!
Homer: Way to go, boy!
Marge: Mmmm…I like this strange new sensation of being proud of my son!
Lisa: Mom, this isn't fair! Bart gets to go to fun school, while I have to sit next to a floating vomit queen from Hell — literally from Hell!
Lisa: "Literally" in the sense that it's 100% accurate. Not how dad uses "literally".

School Days, Hell Daze Pt. 5

Old Scratch: Hey, you're that smart, goody two-shoes from Springfield. We don't need your kind here!
Lisafer: This is Hell? Doesn't seem so scary.
Old Scratch: I try very hard to make it horrific and you insult me.
Lisafer: Sorry.
Old Scratch: I'm surprised you'd want to be stuck here in Hell forever. Just like your brother.
Lisafer: Wait, does Bart know he's going to be stuck here forever?
Old Scratch: You mortals really need to learn to read the fine print.
Old Scratch: I should boil the both of you, but I'm a deal-making fool! Let's do some business…

Task: Collect Magic Runes
Task: Make Lisa Make a Deal With Old Scratch
Time: 1h

Lisafer: So in order to save Bart's soul I have to fail out of Hellementary School?
Old Scratch: Yes, miserable failure is prized here.
Old Scratch: Pass even one class and you and your brother will both be stuck here forever.
Lisafer: That fights every fiber in my body but I love a challenge! Time to fail away!

    Anyone have advice of how to obtain all the prizes, Im worried cuz takes 4 hours to just obtain 5 damn pieces, and just for obtaining the first thing u need 175 pieces, imagine how many hours is going to take to have beelzebart


    If you have all the normal characters to get you the 40 every 4 hours, it should take you 18 hours or so, checking the game every 4 hours to reset.

    If you have the 8 characters plus the premium thats 48 every 4 hours so would take you 16.

    Prizes after prize one require 125 i think but Bart and Lisa are required to do separate tasks.

    It's only 175 for the first prize, it's 125 for the rest.
  • I must say that these events no longer have the charm they used to have in the early years of the game. Halloween was always one I looked forward to the most. But now it's just too much storyline-driven and the rewards are just barely interesting. These days they only give building that only had a long forgotten cameo in the series or just plainly useless decorations. And they barely add the event's atmosphere to the town anymore. I really long for those days where the halloween events had one simply prize track for the full period of the event, which required you collect a special event currency by tapping on creatures (e.g. ghosts) which would spawn and roam through the fog that covered your town.
  • Such good dialogue in every event, yet for a Halloween event there is nothing associated with Halloween like creepy music, fog and only Springfield Dam has discoloured water.

    Very disappointing for what could be considered one of the biggest events of the year.
  • So, this miniscule Halloween event needed an entire month to finish? Will there be more quest content on its way?

    You can actually skim quite a number of hours of that. None of the required totals is actually a multiple of 40. So on the last cycle for any given reward, you'll likely find yourself sending your characters to collect more event currency than needed for that reward. If you collect the whole 40 units of currency for that cycle together the excess ones will go to waste. So what I do when I'm at 115/125 for example is to start two characters on the event tasks to collect the 10 required for that reward. Then, I do some other things in the town and after a few minutes I send the remaining 6 characters on these tasks. When I return four hours later only the first two will have finished which is just enough to complete the track for that reward. The quest will complete and the quest line for the next reward will trigger and a few minutes later a batch of 30 currency for the new rack will already be there to be collected for the next reward. Like that you can save quite a few hours for the entire event.

    What I do is store the required building.
    I make sure Martin is not in Plastic Depot and Sea Captain and Doug are not on 24hr jobs and store the Library.
    Send the required characters on the event, which includes Bart as he is the main character to show on Icon in top left corner.
    The characters go to the Java Server for this Act on our device.
    Replace Library and send the rest of the characters on the event.
    On completion, tap the correct building first.
