Wally M.

A couple heading out on their honeymoon enter a covered bridge in New England when she finds herself in a horse-drawn carriage with a gruff and demanding man who knows her to be someone else and appears to have some claim on her. She discovers she is in the same location but as someone else, and 200 years earlier.

My favorite episode about the bridge over Gormsley Gorge. Thought that was one of the creepiest. Listened in bed under the covers to an old tube type clock radio. The show came on right after I was supposed to go to sleep.

John

A fairly decent story about a ghost telling her story in her own way. I can't imagine being a woman back in those days when you were told who to marry and sometimes "sold" into a marriage.

Alec

Disappointing. Rather a dull ending and not much plot.
