And the origin of this one is none other than the beloved animated television show The Simpsons.<\/p>\n<p>The Simpsons is known for having eerily accurate predictions about the future, everything from future skyscrapers in London to the Trump presidency. In this outlandish theory, the Simpsons episode 9.24 posits \u201c10 days of darkness\u201d and the end of the world.<\/p>\n<p>Bottom line: Don\u2019t fetch your news from cartoon characters.
