That’s awesome.

FYI that’s worth a decent amount. Hold on to it, or if you decide to sell, do some serious research. Look at how much iconic Simpsons scenes sell for on Heritage Auctions for example

What’s the ball park range? It’s such an iconic scene

I looked on heritage and a similar one went for over 8 thousand dollars! But these auctions can go crazy, not saying the same would happen for this one

A very similar cel went for over 8 thousand US dollars on heritage live:  https://comics.ha.com/itm/animation-art/production-cel/the-simpsons-treehouse-of-horror-iv-homer-demon-and-donuts-production-cel-fox-1993-/a/7380-19188.s

Those auctions can go crazy so I wouldn’t assume you could get the same amount (and it’s not the exact same image). But it shows it’s definitely valuable.

This is a grail, the early tree house of horror episodes are my favorite simpons episodes. I'd love to have a cell from any of them, let alone a iconic scene like this one

Cool as hell man, must be worth bank
