You can check out anytime you like...but you can never leave!

Just a helpful note: A lot of people have the same questions here. A quick way to see if your question has already been asked and answered is to use the search button above the posting box at the bottom of the page. Just type in one or more key words, e.g., "nurses". It will bring up posts where nurses are mentioned. You can then click on those posts to see what is being said about it. Hope this helps a little.

To James Barrett (#206) The episode is Bad Actor, jan 9, 1962 (Method Actor in the remake series) He (Robert Duvall) actually murders a fellow actor, not his wife. He destroys most of the body with acid in the bathtub and only the head is left which he hides in the ice-bucket.

To Shawn McGrath (#240) All episodes are from the pilot movie for the 1980's remake series Bang! You're Dead, remake has a girl in the lead, original from 1961 has a boy. Incident In A Small Jail, it sure is Ned Beatty in the remake, original from 1961 An Unlocked Window, original from The Alfred Hitchcock Hour 1965

To Fayron DeVore (#261) The episode is entitled "Voice In The Night" and was broadcasted in the Suspicion series in 1958. Check my website: http://www.geocities.com/dry-weave/hitch.html There you can see my book The Alfred Hitchcock Presents Companion, that you can buy from amazon.com In the about the authors section I even mention that particular episode as the first I remember seeing at age 6 or 7.

Hi All, Does anybody remember a Hitch TV story, may be called something like (cry wolf),about a kid always telling tales about seeing the bogey man or a face at the window. The family are on a long distance train in blizzard weather when a car driver crashes and manages to crawl to the train, thats just slowed down due to a Moose on the track or something. The car driver with all his last effort hauls himself up to the window of the train, and the kid, playing on his own spots him. The kid runs to tell his parents but as usual they think he's making it up. The train then pulls off leaving the guy to freeze to death.

Regards Bazza

To Barry Smythe. The episode, "Don't Interrupt", is about a train caught in a snowstorm with an escaped mental patient on the loose somewhere outside. Inside the train there's a little boy with his parents and a cowboy telling "tall stories". Anyway, the little boy keeps interrupting the cowboy. The Father then promises to give the boy a silver dollar if he can keep quiet during the comboy's story. As you can guess, the mental patient (almost frozen to death) suddenly appears at the carriage window and it's only the boy who sees him. What is the boy to do ?????

I have two questions. I was a young child but I remember Mr. Hitchcock's TV series. My grandparents endulged me and allowed me to view it. There were two episodes that I remember: (1.) The gentleman that wanted to taste this "extraordiary dish." This "dish" was only made once a year and certain clientle were invited to partake. However, what the unsuspecting guest did not know--he was the entree. What was the name of that episode? (2.) This episode involved a very stormy night in a very large house. There was a lot of interplay between the characters. But in the background the news broadcasted the escape of a murderous lunatic from a mental hospital. Very dangerous. This killer infiltrated the house disguise as a female nurse. What was the name of that episode?
