Do not fill this in!===Where Did The Idea Come From=== Trey wanted to convey how Halloween is a positive holiday, despite its horror themes. The episode is a salute to the flesh-eating zombie movie genre, but mostly to the 1985 flick <i>The Return of the Living Dead</i>. Pinkeye was also included in the plot because Trey and Matt associated the illness with elementary school life, claiming pinkeye was something every third grader got.
