My mothers boss had twin girls, one was cheeky and outgoing the other was quiet and reserved. One day their parents on Driving home turned a corner to meet a lorry on fire carrying a load of metal beams, a beam tore through the car decapitating the first twin before her eyes. The second twin escaped with Nothing but during the weeks that followed she took on all the personality traits of her dead sister.
@@hectoresquivel7805 Funny thing is that I had a friend with two huge great dane dogs, one was gentle and reserved the other was mad and fun. When the first one died the mad one became gentle and reserved. Maybe it's more common than we imagine.
Didn't the Doc prescribe something for that for you? That kind of complaint never occurred to me. Maybe it's just me. Or YOU without the meds. Good to you anyway. I have sciatica.
This woman's scream is jagged. Don't have it on as you doze off for the night, with your eyes closed, hence no image, only the SOUND reaching you. Everything she says is terrifying without the picture. Between hysterics, she hisses, or seems to. I'm starting to wonder if the show had a scream enhancer of some kind. The screams are always more disturbing than mere screams can be.
Oh yeah!!what an amazing storyline bi-location being in 2 places at 1 time. This episode was 1 of the scariest I saw as a youth. Frankly I'm still a bit scared now as I'm viewing it.
Besides being fiction, I understand that being an empath with a psycho sibling will always look like the empath is the crazy one; in popular terminology the empath is "the black sheep" of any toxic, dysfunctional and narcissist family. It's so common that most people find it normal.
They wore corsets which were too tight. If you get overheated or must be suddenly active, you can get faint and pass out. Women don't wear corsets today. I know this because I had some back problems and had to wear a surgical corset. Everyone complimented me on my "military posture" but when I suddenly had to run for a bus I did indeed faint on the pavement. Embarrassing.
She reminds me of Emily Blunt, who's in virtually everything. She should have played in more creepy roles (this is her second in One Step Beyond that I've seen). She's a natural for creepy, without much mainstream heroine appeal.
@@jonquil8572 My God, I heard that after I read your comment! There's a lot of slurred or drowned-out swearing on this show. In "Moment of Hate" a woman calls her secretary a "sl..t" in "the Return" a soldier says "..uck that guy!" and in "the Burning Girl" a woman calls her niece a "b..tch"
I don’t know why it took me so long to get dressed!!! (That hair-do alone had to have taken at the very least 3 or4 hours!)😛 even if most of it was a wig!
Meet Esther whose fevers last a while, but Emily loves to start a fire. Emily's a murderous bitch, while Esther C a fit will pitch, what a wild duet. Cause they're sisters, identical sisters, shared a bed. One set of spooky siblings - however one is dead.
Almost everyone of this programs has a women in them that the men never believe and she also acts nutty. the men treated them as weak minded and crazy. It's hard to watch how the men are acting towards the wife in this program. This program was produced in 1959 - 1961 and that is why women finally demanded respect and equality. The only problem now is the woman dress like sex object and are treated like sex objects.

I just messaged a friend: This one had some twists I didn't expect... This show might have achieved greatness if it were an hour long, but then sometimes it seems they had trouble filling in a half hour LOL, endlessly repeating the premise, and lots of "I don't believe it" "It can't be" "You've gone mad" "Please believe me" etc etc etc. But with a higher budget, and some scenes of the childhood...could have been like The Other.
Odd they took that ONE STEP BEYOND CRAZY EXPLANATION she is the evil sister. SINCE ANOTHER TWIN STORY the two brothers were both dying by one was fallen down a mineshaft dying of no air thirst and hunger, the other couldnt breathe and was dying if thirst and didnt know he even had a twin, but wrote down will and testament stuff to his wife while list in mineshaft and her name and stuff so the doctor treating the man in the city looked for the wife of the lost man and they found him in the mineshaft and both brothers lived, but before found, both brothers were dying and had been separated at birth. The ONE STEP BEYOND explained then that science medicine thought the two identicals are supposed to be one cell but something happens to split the cell. That they are meant to be together, But if separated in life they can be tested and shown to answer same to a test, use same words, and finish the test at the same time they said proving identical twins minds are connected.
Have you ever heard a dog barking, but there were only cats in sight? Have you ever watched through the end of a movie, but the credits never rolled? Have you ever cut the lawn, but there was no bag on the lawnmower? Yes? Then you've had a brief encounter with the world of the unknown.
Have you and your entire family of six people survived TWO Covid-19 infections in eight months and are still living to talk about it ...like me and my family? Then you have just AVOIDED that one step beyond.
Did you ever lose one of your socks in the dryer? Have you ever gotten a "like" on Facebook - from someone who was totally unknown to you? Have you ever gotten a reply from a stranger on the RU-vid message board - years after your initial posting? Then you, too, have taken a small step into the world of the unknown.

With the way women were treated even 50 years ago it is understandable, but not funny, that they were pushed and reduced to hysterics out of sheer frustration. I know...I was one.
Emoting was a thing for early tv, or so it seemed. Actors were accustomed to reaching the balcony in stage acting and it carried over. It took some years for the close up and subtlety of tv camera work to sink in. Nowadays the obvious nod is hamming it up, the barely perceptible nod is deemed proper. Yet, that is over done too. Take SG-1 for example and the abundance of "sir"s by captain Carter. . . .
Isn't there supposed to be such a thing as playing a part appropriately? If the woman was hysterical, which she probably was, since she could bilocate n started fires, etc., then why not play her hysterical? Same thing applies nowadays. And, ya, what does he mean by 'cloud'?
i have seen a couple of Boris Karloff 'equivalents' (which just rewrite these stories). as much as i like Karloff, he's sleepwalking his way through his series and has none of gravitas or charm of John Newland, who also directed his series. i do know that his stories are partly made up, but you know he really believes in the paranormal, which makes the series work. (it's like when they try to replace Rod Serling's voice for Twilight zone-type shows - it's awful and sounds dead, even though the actor is good.)
The premise of Thriller was never that it was base in fact, unlike One Step Beyond. But I could see how some of these episodes inspired later works. This one could've inspired The Other, or Audrey Rose.
Which episodes on THRILLER do you have in mind? I'd love to check those out and watch them one after the other. I think it'd make for an interesting comparison. Thanks.
Magda... Who am I that I can judge others? I mean let's face it I've had all manner of mustaches and beards over my wonderful life. Of course I'm a dude... To each his own. live let live.
Maunster! It is, but this story doesn't know what it really is. It only happens by the Will of God. This will explain it for you: catholicmystics.blogspot.com/p/bilocation-bilocation-is-phenomenon-in.html
@@Jeni10 Please read Occult Phenomena in the Light of Theology, by Alois Wiesinger (1957). Wiesinger was a Catholic abbot. You can buy the book on Amazon or read the text at www20.us.archive.org/stream/occultphenomenai00wies/occultphenomenai00wies_djvu.txt. He does not mention bilocation specifically, but he mentions many other equally remarkable phenomena that he attributes to preternatural gifts given to Adam that we (1) can no longer fully control and (2) can no longer licitly use.
There was a priest in Italy by the name of Padre Pio Whois said to be able to do bilocation. There were many witnesses to his being able to do this. I’ve never heard of bilocation until about 5 years ago when I learned about Padre Pio. It’s an amazing thing. Jeni10 who’s comment is above said it very well...”it only happens by the Will of God”.
Jeni10 I commented on Padre Pio having bilocation after reading your comment but I didn’t check out your link to the other Saints. Nice link! Thank you putting it in the comments.
Did she play in another episode where she goes to a beach sees a man she falls for who is married come to find out his father her mother had a almost love affair and were vicariously living it out without reason. Is that her?
