The Simpsons' fans terrified by 2024 prediction as string of episodes came true
The Simpsons have correctly made a string of predictions over the years that eventually came to life.
From the 9/11 tragedy to Donald Trump's shock presidency, show writers have created scenes that spookily go on to mirror real life. Dubbed as crazy coincidences or claims the people working on The Simpsons can see into the future, there have been much suspicions as to how they have managed to predict so many world events.
One writer has claimed it happens by coincidence because the episodes are so old that history repeats itself. However, their latest prediction for 2024 has left fans terrified. TikTok user Matt Welland posted a video about the episode, where he said: "Nah cause if this happens I will loose my mind."

The show has correctly predicted world events over the years (TikTok/ @itsmattw_01)In his video, Matt said: "Basically in this episode Homer is preparing a bunker. Making sure he and his family are prepared for something that is about to happen. He has all the stocks and supplies to ensure his family will be able to survive in this bunker. Here we go, stick with me, because Spingfield is about to be hit by a deadly solar storm.
"This catastrophic event then leads to a complete shut down of essentially the world. No internet, no electricity, everything comes to a close. Basically like a full out. The solar superstorm could wipe out the internet for weeks, months, even years." He went on to explain Baba Vanga predicted earth would be hit by a solar storm.
AI used to recreate The Simpsons as real-life drama and it's very weird
The blind clairvoyant came up with many predictions for the world before her death in 1996, many of which have already come true. The psychic has already correctly predicted the death of Princess Diana, fall of the Soviet Union and the Chernobyl tragedy.
Last year The Simpsons fans made a disturbing connection between an episode on Homer's submarine trip to the Titanic wreck and the tragic events of lost submersible Titan. The episode from 17 years ago sees Homer Simpson's long-lost father Mason Fairbanks, who salvages lost treasures from the sea, embarking on an adventure to the bottom of the ocean to find the treasures of a lost shipwreck.
He tells the boat workers: "Today I am filled with joy. Searching for treasure with my long-lost son. My dream for each of you is that you find the happiness I feel today." Homer jokes ahead of the mission: "And my dream is to someday wear a real wetsuit instead of one that it painted on."
The duo descend into the watery depths on tiny submarines, with Mason explaining: "These waters contain some of Mother Nature's most stunning creations." After laying eyes on the treasure, disaster strikes as Homer realises he's running out of oxygen. A low oxygen light flashes up on the screen with Homer panicking. He passes out mumbling: "Daddy... Daddy..."
As the episode came to an end, Homer wakes up in hospital following a three day coma, surrounded by his family. In another twist, Simpsons writer and producer Mike Reiss has actually been to explore the Titanic wreck in the very same sub that went missing. While they also got the coronavirus pandemic pretty much spot on way back in 1993 when a killer flu hit Springfield in episode 21 of the fourth season, Marge in Chains.
The townsfolk were infected by a deadly virus from Japan, dubbed the Osaka Flu, which came from a factory worker coughing into a blender that was subsequently shipped to America. As the mass flu broke out, the town descended into chaos and everyone started panic buying.
