One Step Beyond | Season 1 | Episode 4 | Dark Room | John Newland | Robert Douglas | Olan Soule
A female photojournalist on assignment in France takes an apartment and begins to work with a somewhat mysterious male model. Things come to a head when she has a brush with the supernatural that could well mean her death.
Produced at the same time as the more well-known The Twilight Zone (1959), this series was an extension of the tradition of radio horror and supernatural dramas such as Light's Out, The Mysterious Traveler and The Witches Tale. As with the Twilight Zone and the radio programs each tale was book-ended by an introduction and conclusion by a host. However, rather than creating fictional stories with supernatural twists and turns, this program sought out "real" stories of the supernatural, including ghosts, disappearances, monsters and the like, re-creating them for each episode. No solutions to these mysteries were ever found, and viewers could only scratch their heads and wonder, "what if it's real?"
