Another great classic fun to watch. Enjoyed it. Thanks for posting. I am glad I found these old gems!! Nothing to watch anymore. Lol!! They just don't make stuff like this any more. I like scary old movies, and tv shows from yester year. 😊
Thanks for posting I've watched it over and over for years and I keep coming back when I just want to mentally escape

BORIS KARLOFF A LEGEND I LOVE WHEN HE SAYS AS SURE AS MY NAME IS BORIS KARLOFF 👍
Remember, in the 1950s, there was Lights Out and The Inner Sanctum on the radio? One radio episode that got buried in my brain, "The Dark", was about a room that was completely dark, and whoever went into that room got turned inside out, and they tried to say something, but all they could do was make muffled attempts at mumbling. It was weird. (And it was the first 10 years of my life, so don't accuse me of being stoned.) Imagine trying to put that on TV. This is the evolution of those old radio shows.
actually watching these tonight. after this episode is( the fingers of fear)
Warren Oates! = what a fine character player was he

Thank you for taking the time to post these greats! I think these are more well made and scary than all the crap out there now( with a few exceptions of course!) but these are true life long gems, that one can always watch and enjoy- especially thanks to people like you, who keep it alive.

Fire would be the first weapon, I could think of. Exceptional creepy story, not of the average. Great cast, also. From Walter Burke (nowhere nears, his odd self), Mary Grace Canfield (Ralph, from 'Green Acres'), and Audrey Dalton.
This is one of the episodes that is highly charged in terms of innuendo, proving that early 1960s TV wasn’t all sweetness and light.

Yeh Warren Oats was a great actor especially in Sam Peckinpah films.
Audrey Dalton had so many memorable roles. She didn't have the celebrity that so many actresses pursued, but she was steadily working, for Hitchcock and other horror shows and westerns.
This is pretty good, it is nicely filmed as a stage play.
So many of these Thriller episodes had such abrupt, seemingly inconclusive endings. Like there should have been a short epilogue segment filmed to wind things up. Instead, they just kerplunk. End.

Oh, Carmen! Nothing could be further from the truth! Regarding attractive women, what happens is that a woman who is really beautiful, can pick and choose her boyfriend! Most of her other male suitors get rejected by her! And that is what men hate, being rejected by the women they greatly desire! I am speaking for the vast majority of men when I say that our whole lives, as soon as we enter puberty, revolve around trying to snag for ourselves one of these enchanting female creatures! Just about everything we do, from learning a trade, or getting a higher university education, is done by us to make ourselves more attractive to the opposite sex! I spent 5 years in high school doing my best to excell in various sports, mainly to impress the girls! Even when men get violent with their spouses, it is usually because they are jealous that their mate was fooling around with another male, or that she wanted to leave the relationship! Almost all the songs and music written and performed by male musicians and singers are devoted to women! I am sorry for you if you had some bad experiences with the men in your life, but it works both ways! I had some bad experiences with women as well! Yet I still absolutely adore the female sex!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🥰😍😻💘💗

I don't believe I ever did want bad things to happen to my first husband's family. Some weren't nice at all. Of course, that was decades ago, when I was still making the best of a humble situation. I'd like to be that person again, but every age has its own perspective; and I've not had to put up with them for a long time.

Somehow I can’t help feeling sorry for her. The father-in-law was a miserable abusive SOB and Hugo looked like he was following in his footsteps. I don’t see though why a guy that was already dead would be afraid of fire.

I can't argue with your assessment, I feel a bit sorry for her too. She sees the obvious. My ex's father treated his wife as a commodity and his kids a liability, then went to AZ with his 2nd wife to avoid paying child support or alimony. But now they're dead.. well... my grown kids act like my late FiL didn't abandon his family back in the 70s. I wonder if my ex and 2nd wife bleached his dad's past moral poverty so they can pretend they aren't as wrong as were Dad and Kay.

Sean died at the hands of the "Hollow Watcher", which looked like it was harboring the ghost of Sean's father, murdered by his daughter in law. But the fate Hugo is not clear.
What happened? Did the movie end with her left alive? She burned the scarecrow? After her laughing and crying, it jumped to the scene where her lover drank the awful whiskey and fight, then looped from different scenes to scenes. I’m not sure if she lives or not….bummer

I have watch this episode several times. It always amazes me and I'm sure it tickles our Father God when Christians or those who think they practiced religion try to sound the vault or above reproach like the idiot old man Grandpa daddy whatever you want to call them in this particular episode he's a plumb fool. In this particular episode the only thing that's truly abominable before the Lord is his attitude and he certainly had no right to put his hands on the woman.. p you so-called Christians had better understand God expect for you to walk holy the only way to walk holy is to have Jesus Christ as the Lord of your life not just personal Savior and if you don't intend to walk holding if you didn't to be a Christian you will certainly not be with God when all is said and done. There's nothing wrong with the way that woman was dressed. Seems like to me maybe the old man had designs on the woman himself and just had to touch it couldn't stand to see his son have a better-looking woman that he has ever been with. What do you think? Give me some feedback please!?
