School teacher Helen Foley (a fine performance by Janice Rule) meets a strange little girl named Markie (well played to the uncanny hilt by Terry Burnham) who knows a lot about her despite having never met Helen before.
Director Alvin Ganzer relates the compelling story at a steady pace and ably crafts an intriguing mysterious atmosphere. Rod Serling's involving script makes a poignant central point concerning repressed memories about upsetting childhood traumas. Markie's adult-like wisdom and solemnity proves to be genuinely unnerving. Sheppard Strudwick cuts an impressively sinister figure as the creepy Peter Selden. A very spooky and effective show.
