The House of Evil Employee is a shopkeeper at the House of Evil who sold a Krusty Doll to Homer. He told Homer that the doll was cursed, before telling him that it came with a free frogurt (frozen yogurt) which was also cursed. This shopkeeper also bears noted physical similarities to the shopkeeper in the 1984 film Gremlins, whom also sells an object to a man desperate to buy a present for his son, which later turns out to be evil.
