One Step Beyond

Produced a year before Twilight Zone, this series sparked the growing interest in paranormal suspense in the late 1950's. The primary difference between the two shows was the effort One Step Beyond made to discover and present "real" stories of supernatural events - all said to be based on true events. Ultimately, solutions to the mysteries were never found, leaving viewers bewildered.
