The Hauntening (Bob’s Burgers)

Summary
In an order to scare Louise, Bob and Linda set up a haunted house. But things that weren’t set up start happening, and the Belchers try to escape.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) You can really feel for the Belcher family due to all the freakish activity they’re experiencing, and you could really want the Belcher family to get out of the house alive.
 * 2) The haunted house Bob and Linda put up is funny due to how intentionally bad it is.
 * 3) The Boyz 4 Now song “I Love U So Much (It’s Scary)” is a catchy and heartwarming song, and the music video is good as well.
 * 4) Gene, as always, is a great comic relief with memorable quotes such as “It’s the fun family trip to the basement to get killed!” or “It’s literally a triple threat!”.
 * 5) A nice-spirited scene where Gene tells Bob he’s doing a great job as a dad and that he’s having a great childhood.
 * 6) “There’s a washing machine, a furnace, some old boxes of junk, and A GHOST!”
 * 7) The funny and satisfying scene where Louise screams in fear for the first time in her life.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Some gross-out humor.
 * 2) Tina and Gene are huge scaredy-cats at the beginning.
