The creepiest episode for me was And When the Sky Was Opened. Freaky enough concept on its own, but the characters’ very realistic terror at being erased from existence was what sealed it for me.
Everything about it is the perfect Eldridge horror. You don't know who or what the heck is erasing the characters, you just barely know the reason why and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it.
@@lynnevetter The radio drama version (available here on RUclips) adds much more to it. The family increasingly behaves like their mask's personality as they wear them.
"The Jungle", was a very creepy episode. It did a great job building up suspense, before delivering a terrifying ending. Another good one was "The New Exhibit", the ending scene was chilling.
That was one of the best shows ever. I was quite young when it came on. The little missing girl one had me shook. Watching the twilight zone is probably why I still love unusual and offbeat stories.
That goddam Dummy. The shot of the ventriloquist's manager holding up the dummy and the dummies eyes are fix on the manager just sends spills up my spine. That whole scene does as he casually changes position.
The most terrifying Twilight Zone moment for me is Hitler's shadow creeping along the wall as Rod Serling delivers his closing monologue at the end of "He's Alive". "Where will he go next? This phantom from another time, this resurrected ghost of a previous nightmare. Chicago? Los Angeles? Miami, Florida? Vincennes, Indiana? Syracuse, New York? Anyplace, everyplace, where there's hate, where there's prejudice, where there's bigotry. He's alive. He's alive so long as these evils exist. Remember that when he comes to your town. Remember it when you hear his voice speaking out through others. Remember it when you hear a name called, a minority attacked, any blind, unreasoning assault on a people or any human being. He's alive because, through these things, we keep him alive."
For me "Number 12 Looks Like Me" always creeped me out. The idea that at 18 everyone undergoes cosmetic surgery to one of a dozen prerendered faces. The protagonist resists the change and wants to be her own self regardless of social pressure. In the end, she's forced to have the surgery against her will but comes out loving her new appearance, showing its not only the physical appearance they change, but the mental as well.
The show always stood out to me as being so unique. Others tried to replicate it, but the only one that came close was One Step Beyond. In this case you can't be the original. Rod Serling was a genius.
"The Dummy" is definitely disturbing, but the scariest episode for me will always be "The Shelter." It just encapsulates how easily we can turn on each other--similarly to "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street."
The episode "You Drive" stuck with me. In it a driver hits and kills a child on a bicycle and leaves the scene. His car keeps reminding him of the accident and even follows him as he walks to work in an attempt to avoid the car. Also the one where the US soldier ends up switching into the body of a Japanese soldier is amazingly intense.
I ❤ watching Twilight Zone. I would watch it as a kid with my great grandmother and mama. Now that I'm grown and they both have passed I enjoy watching old episodes and remembering those good times of being scared 😱 😨
I grew up watching the original “Twilight Zone” as the series began when I was a child. I actually found “ The Masks” to be both satisfying and touching: satisfying in the justice that was given to the heartless, greedy relatives and touching when the father/grandfather’s mask is removed, and we see that what we humans think is the most terrifying thing ( death) is actually quite peaceful and soothing. The episode that greatly creeped me out was “ An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge” when the noose snaps the head of the executed prisoner and his we realize that his hope of being “ a living man” was his final dream. There’s no dialog in this episode, just that haunting song which stays with me even today.
I would say that's a good speculation. He did direct the Kick The Can segment in the Twilight Zone: The Movie and is a huge fan of the series, so I am sure that he did.
It really says something about a tv show when you bring it back 3 times in a span of 60 years. They brought the twilight zone back in the 80's, 2000, and 2020. All had a shorter run but there were some great episodes. The episode in the 80's called "dealers choice" is highly recommended. A young Morgan freeman is in it
Hot Take: The Shelter is far better than The Monsters are Due on Maple Street. As The Shelter used a real world scare to unmask its people. Maple Street needed the kid saying he read about aliens in a comic book.
"The Shelter" is my top favorite episodes of the series. It's completely underrated compared to "Monsters" and I always tell people that Grandpa Joe from "Willy Wonka" was always trash and then point them to this episode for reference.
@@starbrite526 He was trying to be rational after Jerry refused. Telling the others to stop wasting time and group effort on a basement. Also trying to keep them from turing into a mob.
The episode that came to mind was "The Obsolete Man" the part that ended with the Chancellor who denied to be the Obsolete, and then the people in the room grumbled at him and then took him to an actual execution. That made me feel anxious watching that part, or that moment got under my skin. I agree, "Living Doll" I am going to kill you moment. "It's a Good Life" Jack in the Box. "To Serve Man" It's a Cookbook & "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" Seeing the Gremlin
You guys needed to add "Long Distance Call" (also starring Bill Mumy) to your list. A little boy named Billy receives phone calls from his recently deceased grandmother on a toy telephone, a birthday gift from her, asking Billy to join her in the afterlife.
"Eye of the Beholder" was the greatest and most effective Twilight Zone episode ever. Maybe the most clever episode of any TV show period. Just the way it was shot and the twist is revealed was Brilliant, especially for 50s-60s era television.
This episode freaked me out. He was a Charlatan but somehow he conjured the resurrection of the people that were asked for. As he leaves, you see all the living dead on the outskirts waiting to take their revenge. CREEPY!
I loved “Time Enough at Last”, but as an adult - and a very near sighted one - I have a problem with it. Breaking his glasses wouldn’t have stopped him from reading, I routinely take off my glasses to read. When you’re near sighted, all you have to do is hold the book closer. However, it’s still one of my favorite episodes.
Brian's ghostly voice on the phone in "Night Call" sends a chill up my spine every time. The moment from "The Invaders" when we find out that the aliens are us messed me up for days afterwards. I was rooting for that lady, telling her yeah! Beat that mean little alien against the ground! Smash him up good! And then... US Airforce... gulp. The original Twilight Zone will always be a classic.
"It's a Good Life." has a sequel episode. "It's Still a Good Life" is the thirty-first episode of the 2002 revival television series of The Twilight Zone. The episode was first broadcast on February 19, 2003, on UPN. It is a sequel to the original series episode "It's a Good Life." Bill Mumy and Cloris Leachman reprise their roles from the original episode. Anthony Fremont's daughter, Audrey, is played by actor Bill Mumy's real life daughter Liliana Mumy. It was written by Ira Steven Behr (based on characters created by Jerome Bixby) and directed by Allan Kroeker.
And the other one was mentioned her about the old lady getting mysterious calls from a man who had been dead for decades. It was her dead fiancé and it was because of a downed telephone wire that fell on his grave. That one was both chilling and sad.
“There was time now”. Seems like a parody in Family Guy. In the episode when a cell in Peter’s brain was smart but then breaks his glasses and says the line
My hot take on the midnight sun is the main character is in a coma following an unknown accident on a cool fall day. The earth in both fantasies being knocked out of orbit is a metaphor for her life being thrown into chaos. Earth being pulled toward the sun represents her fight to stay alive, moving away accepting she won't be alive for long
I had seen most of these when they were reruns on TBS or TNT for a weekend (when they aired) as a kid with my Mom. I loved this series and most of my favorites are on this list. The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits will always be my favorite Sci-Fi/Horror Anthologies.
Interesting to reflect as adults, but I can assure you that watching 'Little Girl Lost' as a child and consequently thinking you could roll under your bed into a parallel dimension gave me nightmares for years.
Believe it or not the creepiest and scariest episode for me was Ring a Ding Girl. It was the story of a movie star that was on her way to Rome to film a new movie and she decides to stop in at their home town on the way. Only before the trip she kept getting these weird visions of old friends and family calling for her help. She makes it home and convinces l everyone in town to come see her perform instead of going to the annual picnic which should have been canceled due to rain. But for some reason it’s not. At the same time a plane crashes in the park where the picnic was supposed to take place and the movie star, the Ring a Ding girl was on board the plane that crashed. So she was actually having premonitions about her death and the warning from her hometown.
That's the one detail about the episode that didn't make sense. If it was going to rain that day why didn't the picnic get postponed until better weather?
Kana Tachibana from Brynhildr in the Darkness (2014) as her paralyzed doll-self who is good and love the main protagonist is a complete opposite of Talky Tina from The Twilight Zone (1959-1964) who is an evil doll and hate the main protagonist 🎎🖤 👩🦼💖
I remember watching that episode the 1st time on late night tv and it stuck with me ever since. So memorable watching him transform as he walked past the pillars.
Yes! I was going to add this- definitely a terrifying episode- the make up, lighting, writing & acting all when he walks slowly towards the door at the end- freaked me out for weeks!
I forget the episode name.. “the new exhibit” I believe? Where the man takes in the wax statues of historical murderers, that one was so unnerving when it was quiet
I had watched both the original episode of The After Hours and it's revival albeit "modern" episode both available on RUclips. My curiosity got the better of me.
"Death's Head Revisited" A former captain of the SS comes back to Dachau and makes a nostalgia trip through the camp, patting the gallows or, seeing a certain house, comments: "We had such good times". Beyond creepy
Not from the original but in the Forest Whitaker Twilight Zone that episode where parents turn their rebellious kids into trees creeped me out as a kid
I remember the few twilight zone parodies on tv from johnny bravo, man who cried clown , the cornfield , the doll parody Billy and Mandy runaway pants Ep , just to name a few . Very creepy with the Hitchhiker, the Doctor surgeons and plane 22
IMO, you overlooked "The Fever," starring Everett Sloane as "Franklin,", who visits Las Vegas with his wife. He's 100% anti-gambling; she thinks he's just an old fuddy-duddy. But a certain circumstance changes his mind about it and he becomes obsessed with a certain slot machine that possesses him--calling out his name when he's away from it. Its voice is creepy ("Franklin!" "Franklin!") the music is creepy, and his close-ups are creepy--his sweaty face, a battleground of fear and craving for more cash. This episode freaked me out when I saw it the year of its release, 1960. I was 10 years old. It still gets to me whenever I watch it. 😳
It's pretty much an impossible task to distill a list of Twilight Zone episodes into this category, but some of these definitely fit the bill. Some, like There Was Time Now and the Midnight Sun, to me weren't so much creepy as they were just plain good story telling with a great twist. One of the creepiest episodes for me was Jesse-Belle, where Anne Francis' character sought the help of a local witch to bewitch the young man she wanted. The combination of the backwoods Appalachian setting, the convincing acting from the old lady, and the helplessness of the characters was almost frightening.
The Laughing Town - imagine being trapped in a town and the only thing you keep hearing is a girl's creepy laugh? Only to find out you're a plaything for Giant Aliens.
The Obsolete man scene with Burgess's character starts reading the Bible as the bomb countdown is shown you feel the same way the Charcellor feels as he begs for his life.
I used to believe that the Chancellor was played by Fred Gwynne from "The Munsters", until I googled the character to gind out it was Fritz Weaver, and that Weaver had the same birthday as me. That was a funny bonus I wasn't expecting!
I was away for a week. My wife and kids were home late at night scrolling through the TV Channels. They happened on the Twilight Episode "Nightmare At 20,000 Ft" just as Shatner looked out the airplane window to see that gremlin at the window. It scared the heck out of them. Today we laugh about it but what a perfect moment to happen upon a scene. LOL

Talking Tina
The Gremlin, Talking Tina she started the fear to talking dolls 😮, being in the heated room
The one where the kid’s grandmother calls him on the toy phone and tries to get the kid to kill himself so she can have him forever
Most of them were eerie
the giant girl in the end of the episode
These moments prove that The Twilight Zone will always be the greatest anthology series of all time.
And Rod Serling's Original Series Is The Best Of All The Incarnations!
Tales from the crypt
Twilight zone
Alfred Hitchcock presents
Tales from the dark side
The creepiest episode for me was And When the Sky Was Opened. Freaky enough concept on its own, but the characters’ very realistic terror at being erased from existence was what sealed it for me.
Thank you this is my favorite episode of the series. A shame it wasn’t on the list.
Everything about it is the perfect Eldridge horror. You don't know who or what the heck is erasing the characters, you just barely know the reason why and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it.
It makes you wonder if John Glenn's Mercury flight originally had 3 crew members.
I just watched it after seeing this comment. It’s actually crazy
"The Masks" was creepy AF and old dying Jason was enjoying every second up to midnight.
Yes! I was surprised this one was just mentioned in passing. I saw it in the early 2000s and it was seared into my memory. lol
@@lynnevetter
The radio drama version (available here on RUclips) adds much more to it. The family increasingly behaves like their mask's personality as they wear them.
@@scottbakanumba1heathen313 oooo.. my hubbin and I love radio dramas. We'll have to check it out! Thanks!!
@@lynnevetter
Yup that episode still effects me
And Jack in the box scared me so much I stopped playing with them as a kid 😂😂
"The Masks" was directed by Ida Lupino, who also starred in "The 16-Milimeter Shrine ".
"The Jungle", was a very creepy episode. It did a great job building up suspense, before delivering a terrifying ending. Another good one was "The New Exhibit", the ending scene was chilling.
the concept of the midnight sun 🌞 is really eerie and it's one of my favorite episodes.
The episode was filmed on a summer day with the heat on
That was one of the best shows ever. I was quite young when it came on. The little missing girl one had me shook. Watching the twilight zone is probably why I still love unusual and offbeat stories.

Never has truth been this haunting.😱
"Room for one more,honey!!" 22 was the episode that freaked me out the most.
Agreed. To this day that one freaks me out and I first saw it when I was like thirteen back in the early 80s.
For me "Number 12 Looks Like Me" always creeped me out. The idea that at 18 everyone undergoes cosmetic surgery to one of a dozen prerendered faces. The protagonist resists the change and wants to be her own self regardless of social pressure. In the end, she's forced to have the surgery against her will but comes out loving her new appearance, showing its not only the physical appearance they change, but the mental as well.
I thought the ending was sad because Marilyn lost her true self after the transformation.
The show always stood out to me as being so unique. Others tried to replicate it, but the only one that came close was One Step Beyond. In this case you can't be the original.
Rod Serling was a genius.
“Five Characters in Search for an Exit” definitely should have made the list.
The Night Call was creepy but it breaks my heart knowing that Elba will never get to speak with her late fiancé who just wants to speak to her
The Twilight Zone is the greatest tv show I've ever watched
Is it streaming anywhere?
"The Dummy" is definitely disturbing, but the scariest episode for me will always be "The Shelter." It just encapsulates how easily we can turn on each other--similarly to "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street."
The episode "You Drive" stuck with me. In it a driver hits and kills a child on a bicycle and leaves the scene. His car keeps reminding him of the accident and even follows him as he walks to work in an attempt to avoid the car.
Also the one where the US soldier ends up switching into the body of a Japanese soldier is amazingly intense.
I don't know why the man didn't stay to call an ambulance after he hit the child. There was a payphone right there at the scene!
I ❤ watching Twilight Zone. I would watch it as a kid with my great grandmother and mama. Now that I'm grown and they both have passed I enjoy watching old episodes and remembering those good times of being scared 😱 😨
Twilight zone was waaay ahead of it's time
The Hitler reveal and the main character's horrifying reaction at realizing who he had been listening to.
Talking Tina walked so Chucky could be born.

There’s no dialog in this episode, just that haunting song which stays with me even today.
I barely watched this show but watching like three episodes of this show is absolutely amazing! I’m 22 and I can say I’m a fan of this franchise!
I always wondered if Steven Spielberg borrowed from "Little Girl Lost" when he made "Poltergeist"
I would say that's a good speculation. He did direct the Kick The Can segment in the Twilight Zone: The Movie and is a huge fan of the series, so I am sure that he did.
Final destination totally ripped off "22".

*_The newest TZ is about 97% woke garbage._*
It's been a tradition in my family since I was little watching Twilight Zone every New Year. Passed the tradition to my children and grandchildren..
June Foray's Talking Tina voice is creepy especially when she starts threatening Teddy's character.
Living Doll has always had that creepy effect. An the one about the Ventriloquist turning into his Dummy was really freaky.
The ending of "The Invaders" blew my mind when I was a teenager, and the ending of "Nick of Time" was also creepy as hell
The twist definitely was a great twist , her acting was amazing too
Hot Take:
The Shelter is far better than The Monsters are Due on Maple Street. As The Shelter used a real world scare to unmask its people. Maple Street needed the kid saying he read about aliens in a comic book.

"It's a Good Life" Jack in the Box.
"To Serve Man" It's a Cookbook
&
"Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" Seeing the Gremlin
I met Richard Kiel, who played the alien, from, To Serve Man, in 2000.
He was tall and his giant hand covered my hand when I shooked his hand.
You guys needed to add "Long Distance Call" (also starring Bill Mumy) to your list.
A little boy named Billy receives phone calls from his recently deceased grandmother on a toy telephone, a birthday gift from her, asking Billy to join her in the afterlife.
These were all wonderful. My favorite, one starred a young Robert Redford called nothing in the dark.
"Eye of the Beholder" was the greatest and most effective Twilight Zone episode ever. Maybe the most clever episode of any TV show period. Just the way it was shot and the twist is revealed was Brilliant, especially for 50s-60s era television.
I'm pretty sure people in the 50-60s were smarter than we are
That's the first episode I watched as a kid , definitely stuck with me to this day
My favorite episode of the series
The ending of "Mr. Garrity and the Graves" is haunting when the dead actually rise including the revenge seeking gunslinger and abusive wife.
This episode freaked me out. He was a Charlatan but somehow he conjured the resurrection of the people that were asked for. As he leaves, you see all the living dead on the outskirts waiting to take their revenge. CREEPY!

I’d like to see the top 10 bittersweet episodes of the Twilight zone please.
I remember when I was 4, the very first "Twilight Zone" episode I saw was 'Talking Tina.'
“Monsters are Due on Maple Street” is a documentary of the future.
Even though I’ve never seen this, I’m getting chills
Night Call and Long Distance Call are the creepy ones for me and Night Call is my favorite.
Brian's ghostly voice on the phone in "Night Call" sends a chill up my spine every time. The moment from "The Invaders" when we find out that the aliens are us messed me up for days afterwards. I was rooting for that lady, telling her yeah! Beat that mean little alien against the ground! Smash him up good! And then... US Airforce... gulp.
The original Twilight Zone will always be a classic.
im so exited for this!!! (also i love all your videos :)
"It's a Good Life." has a sequel episode. "It's Still a Good Life" is the thirty-first episode of the 2002 revival television series of The Twilight Zone.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Room for one more honey is still terrifying lol
Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! 17:46 My pick for the creepiest Twilight Zone moment is the gremlin in "Nightmare at 20,000 feet". 🤣
I think the reveal that Henry was in hell the whole time in the episode “A Nice Place to Visit” should have make it on this list.
“There was time now”. Seems like a parody in Family Guy. In the episode when a cell in Peter’s brain was smart but then breaks his glasses and says the line
My hot take on the midnight sun is the main character is in a coma following an unknown accident on a cool fall day. The earth in both fantasies being knocked out of orbit is a metaphor for her life being thrown into chaos.

I remember that Lois Nettleton spent nearly all of her screen time barefoot in that episode.

What wasn’t creepy about The Twilight Zone is a good question ❔❓❔❓
That was such a great series! I still watch it! ❤
Oh man, lots of scary stuff from this show. Real cutting edge, at the time.

@@melissacooper8724 LOL! I guess in these small mid western historical towns these kinds of annual events take place rain or shine.
I love the episode where the guy builds the bomb shelter for him and his family and his neighbors fight with him to get into it.
"Judgment Night" & "The Thirty Fathom Grave".
The Dummy takes the cake 🥴
The episode, where a man finds a watch that can stop time, and unfortunately becomes trapped in one single moment.
Midnight sun is my favourite!!
Talking Tina is the creepiest episode. The episode about the guy who takes the commuter train into an earlier era isn't scary but it's very cool.
A Stop at Willoughby
@@deb4578 Yeah.

🎎🖤 👩🦼💖
Eye of the beholder is my all time favorite episode ever and a masterpiece of ingenuity !!!
Some of my favorite episodes on this series The Twilight zone is one of my favorite sci-fi shows
"The howling man" should be on this list
I was just thinking the same thing!
I remember watching that episode the 1st time on late night tv and it stuck with me ever since. So memorable watching him transform as he walked past the pillars.
Yes! I was going to add this- definitely a terrifying episode- the make up, lighting, writing & acting all when he walks slowly towards the door at the end- freaked me out for weeks!
I forget the episode name.. “the new exhibit” I believe? Where the man takes in the wax statues of historical murderers, that one was so unnerving when it was quiet
The ending of Gerrity and the graves. That really creeps me out
try watching it stoned on weed
There was an episode with an earwig crawling through a man's brain. That has stayed with me forever.
That was an episode from The Night Gallery, a show Rod Serling hosted in the early 70's.
I live in the middle of the X-Files but I have visited the Twilight Zone many times. Mr. X
I had watched both the original episode of The After Hours and it's revival albeit "modern" episode both available on RUclips.
My curiosity got the better of me.
My parents must've of really loved or hated me why they let me stay up to watch this show. Alongside with The Tales From The Cyrpt.
"Death's Head Revisited"
A former captain of the SS comes back to Dachau and makes a nostalgia trip through the camp, patting the gallows or, seeing a certain house, comments: "We had such good times".
Beyond creepy
Not from the original but in the Forest Whitaker Twilight Zone that episode where parents turn their rebellious kids into trees creeped me out as a kid
The Midnight Sun...
I remember the few twilight zone parodies on tv from johnny bravo, man who cried clown , the cornfield , the doll parody
Billy and Mandy runaway pants Ep , just to name a few . Very creepy with the Hitchhiker, the Doctor surgeons and plane 22
IMO, you overlooked "The Fever," starring Everett Sloane as "Franklin,", who visits Las Vegas with his wife. He's 100% anti-gambling; she thinks he's just an old fuddy-duddy. But a certain circumstance changes his mind about it and he becomes obsessed with a certain slot machine that possesses him--calling out his name when he's away from it. Its voice is creepy ("Franklin!" "Franklin!") the music is creepy, and his close-ups are creepy--his sweaty face, a battleground of fear and craving for more cash. This episode freaked me out when I saw it the year of its release, 1960. I was 10 years old. It still gets to me whenever I watch it. 😳
You should do a list of all the actor's parents that were on Twilight Zone. There were so many whose parents were working character actors.
It's pretty much an impossible task to distill a list of Twilight Zone episodes into this category, but some of these definitely fit the bill. Some, like There Was Time Now and the Midnight Sun, to me weren't so much creepy as they were just plain good story telling with a great twist. One of the creepiest episodes for me was Jesse-Belle, where Anne Francis' character sought the help of a local witch to bewitch the young man she wanted. The combination of the backwoods Appalachian setting, the convincing acting from the old lady, and the helplessness of the characters was almost frightening.
Sister of that picture< Agnes Morehead should have won an Emmy for " The alien's are earthlings"
It’s A Good Life actually continues in 90s TZ it’s pretty good.
So much of the Twilight Zone episodes can be summed up as “Man, that shit’s fucked, right?! Anyway, I’m Rod Sterling”
The movie "Mirrors" was definitely inspired by "Mirror image"
In spite of being a COMEDY for almost its entire length, "A Kind Of A Stopwatch" has a really unsettling ending.
My top 3 are: Deaths Head Revisited, The Fear and; The little People....😮😮
The Hitchhiker's eyes.
Greatest tv show of all time.
The Laughing Town - imagine being trapped in a town and the only thing you keep hearing is a girl's creepy laugh? Only to find out you're a plaything for Giant Aliens.
I remember Nancy Malone taking her shoes off and going about in her stocking feet in this episode.
The Obsolete man scene with Burgess's character starts reading the Bible as the bomb countdown is shown you feel the same way the Charcellor feels as he begs for his life.
I used to believe that the Chancellor was played by Fred Gwynne from "The Munsters", until I googled the character to gind out it was Fritz Weaver, and that Weaver had the same birthday as me. That was a funny bonus I wasn't expecting!
I remember my 7th grade English teacher showed us Nightmare at 20k Feet. Shit traumatized me lmao
I didn't even have to see the full Talking Tina episode to say, "Nope. Nope. No, no, no." I knew it would scare me from minute 1.
I was away for a week. My wife and kids were home late at night scrolling through the TV Channels. They happened on the Twilight Episode "Nightmare At 20,000 Ft" just as Shatner looked out the airplane window to see that gremlin at the window. It scared the heck out of them. Today we laugh about it but what a perfect moment to happen upon a scene. LOL
A prequel to "The Twilight Saga" (2008-2012)
"I'm Talkie Tina, and I'm going to kill you."
I love that episode! 😊
Sadly you never mentioned my favorite episode 'And When the Sky Was Opened'
