Catman recalls seeing 'Little Girl Lost' on The Twilight Zone when it first aired in 1962.
To this day, the thought of crawling under a bed unnerves him just a bit.

Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Man From the South (January 3, 1960). Down-on-his-luck Steve McQueen makes a dangerous wager with Peter Lorre in Las Vegas.
Twilight Zone: Nightmare at 20,000 Feet (October 11, 1963) With William Shatner as an airline passenger who sees an evil creature sabotaging the wing. No one will believe him.
Thriller: The Grim Reaper (June 13, 1961). William Shatner again. A strange painting showing Death with his scythe may be responsible for murder.
I was neither child nor adult when I saw these but was going through the most impressionable years of all: adolescence.

I was neither child nor adult when I saw these but was going through the most impressionable years of all: adolescence. As a kid, I once slept over at a friends house, and just before bed we made the mistake of watching an episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents called "Poison" (1958)....about a man trapped in his bed by a DEADLY krait snake resting on his chest. I'll never forget then spending the next 8 hours or so of the most restless "sleep" I've EVER experienced, dreaming off and on all night long of a deadly snake wrapped up in the bedding of the very bed I was in !!   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poison_(story)SAVE FERRIS

He would play these pranks on unsuspecting '60s TV audiences and warp the minds of a generation.

I've got a deep dive...
Tales from the Riverbank (Hammy Hamster).
When I was 4-5yrs old, I had a fear of giants. Like Godzilla, King Kong, Jack & the Beanstalk, etc.
One episode of that show, they erected a clock tower of sorts in the forest. Until they panicked & decided it would only attract 'giant' people (aka humans) which was dangerous.
Not. Cool. That was really weird as a 4-5yr old, my hero rodents, afraid of ppl who were to them giants.

I used to be scared of a few episodes of the X-Files when I was a kid.
Namely Darkness Falls and The Host.

Alfred Hitchcock got me with 2 episodes. I don't recall the names off hand.
One was set during the Day of the Dead celebrations in Mexico. All the death imagery spooked me.
The second involved two men, one middle-aged, one young, competing for the affections of a young woman. Things take a tragic twist at the end.

Not a specific episode, but my brother, would freak out and run out of the room at the intro to "The Incredible Hulk." It was the split screen shot that freaked him out. (he was like 4 or 5 at the time) He had no problem with the show or him Hulking out during it just that one shot.

Just what was it with the late Valerie Harper being terrorized by psychos in MULTIPLE made-for-tv movies back in the 70's and 80's ?? For some reason, when I first saw this post, I thought it might be referring to this movie of hers (with an incredibly creepy Richard Romanus as the psycho killer that relentlessly terrorizes Harper's character): Night Drive (a.k.a. Night Terror) - 1977SAVE FERRIS
