Episode 0124 "Ghost at High Noon"
Written by Elizabeth Pinnell, Directed by Himan Brown, Host: E.G. Marshall
Two traveling women have their car break down in the desert. They are met by an old man traveling in a covered wagon. He takes them to a ghost town where they cannot make the residents hear them. But the residents have plans for them. The doors of the mind can be opened into corridors of unlimited possibilities where time and place have a way of melding into strange and provocative patterns. Most ghost stories take place in the dark of night or when shadows are long and the moon is crossed by clouds. But we're about to meet a ghost at high noon on a blistering hot day without a shadow in the sky. In the course of our story, the two women who are embarked upon a fateful journey find respite from the merciless sun when they are drawn toward a barn from which comes a very human sound.
Our story begins on a long straight ribbon of highway in an arid section of the Western United States. Marion Jeffries and Janet Marston are longtime friends who are returning home after having driven Marion's son to a summer camp.
Starring: Celeste Holm, Frances Sternhagen, Nat Polen, Gilbert Mack
