Express elevator to the ninth floor, carrying Miss Marsha White on a most prosaic, ordinary, run of the mill errand. Miss Marsha White, on the ninth floor, specialties department, looking for a gold thimble. The odds are she'll find it, but there are even better odds that she'll find something else, because this isn't just a department store. This happens to be the Twilight Zone.
Marsha, MARsha, Here are some interesting websites for the Twilight Zone: Zone 1...Zone 2...Zone 3
I believe you're going my way...
The Twilight Zone was known for its macabre look at ordinary life in the 1960s. It focused on our fears and our fads and approached in a very realistic way the anomalies of our world, from ghosts to aliens. Tomorrow, in a surprise ending to the week, we will focus on the Zone's love of the surprise Ending. We will see one of the many versions of possibly the oldest of Urban Legends. The story of the hitchhiker is one that has been captured in legend, in song ("Phantom 409" is a famous old country song), in film (Carnival of Souls) and in storytelling since the 1930s. And we will see the story of poor, misguided Marsha, a TZ classic.
