Dead Bart
A former Fox intern claims to have seen a forbidden Season 1 Simpsons episode titled 'Dead Bart.' In it, Bart is sucked from a plane and dies. The family sits in prolonged, agonizing grief over minutes of silence. The episode ends with a tombstone bearing the names of real celebrities — and their exact dates of death, years in the future.

Dead Bart perfected the 'lost media' horror format by anchoring its dread in one of the most beloved and familiar IPs in television history. The story was written in 2010, before 'lost media' became a recognized internet genre, and helped pioneer the subgenre. Its detail about Matt Groening behaving strangely during the episode's production gave the fiction a convincing, investigative texture.
