“The Twilight Zone” (1959)

Each episode of “The Twilight Zone” offers viewers a new story, cast and frights as host Rod Serling takes you through the dangerous dimension, which he outlines in his famous opening monologue.
There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.
