@@nicolarollinson4381 Yes, what looks like just B&W to us has within it the distinctions that can be computer-analyzed to identify the colors of the object when the B&W image was originally produced. That's how colorization of old movies is possible -- they're not assigning the colors by choice but analyzing what they actually were . . .
I used to watch this show as a kid! Loved it! It was right up there with the Twilight Zone, Fantasmic Features, Outer Limits and Chillarama! That was a great time.
I'll be 65 in a few months. I must have seen this in mid 1960s reruns. I always love scary stuff. One Step Beyond, Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, Time Tunnel, Thriller etc. What scared me though & became my favorite TZ was the episode called Twenty Two.
@@oolongteaforjoyluck17 TZ Twenty Two is a good one. It was apparently inspired by a story from the British anthology film "Dead of Night" which came out a couple of years after WWII. Similar premise is handled differently in the Dead of Night story - both worth seeing. The spooky nurse in the Twenty Two episode was the beautiful Arlene Martel (billed as Arline Sax at the time). She also appeared in the Outer Limits episode "Demon with a Glass Hand" - acting under trying circumstances when she had just undergone major surgery. Also, she played Spock's fiancee in the Star Trek episode "Amok Time." : )
I have very warm feelings about the series. We had a very difficult time trying to tune in the TV. This would mean climbing on the roof to turn the antenna for the best reception. My mother and sleeping dad would watch those episodes that we were able to tune in. I think we only watched about 10 episodes but to me it was a good feeling to have my parents in the room with me. Funny how different people see the same.
I'm shocked that I've never heard of this TV Series until now. I was watching Alfred Hitchcock and came across One of These Episodes. I am so Grateful for Both TH-cam and People that take time to upload these Wonderful Classic Shows, Movies and Documentaries etc. Thank You, Sincerely, Sunscreen Stacy 🌞⛱️
One-Step-Beyond yes it honestly is. I don't watch regular TV anymore. I have a cable box but I never use it because I can watch whatever I want thanks to TH-cam.
I really enjoy these old classics. Good actors and strong stories. Tv from an age when men were men and women were women. Thanks for uploading these gems.
It's STILL terrifying. I don't need to watch computer-generated monsters and crap about zombies eating people's brains. These stories, supposedly based on real incidents, is eerie.
what an era to grow up in...I had a collection of series I watched as a child, The Twilight Zone, Outer Limits, Thriller, Death Valley Days, One Step Beyond, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Dark Shadows...it wasn't all blood and gore like today, these stories were about the consequences of one's actions...
@@one-step-beyond-1959 I have never watched One Step Beyond but now that I've seen a couple of episodes I'm hooked. Thank you for uploading the episodes. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
@phil lamonica: Yes, this seems to be the OSB episode that people most frequently remember from their 1950s childhood. I wonder if children are equivalently impressed by anything today . . .
I was 6, don’t remember seeing this one, but loved scary movies! The one I that scared me to death, was “Journey to the Center of the Earth” at the “picture show.” Also in my Louisiana home, we had Count Macabre in the afternoon. Thanks for the shows & memories.
I was in Jr. High and alone at home when I watched this. Besides the old movie, The Haunting, which only used one special effect, this was the scariest show I've seen. I ran out of the house until my family returned.
Is it The Haunting movie which has house guests in an old mansion, the walls breathe, two women are hearing noises holding hands but when the light comes back on one realizes the other was nowhere nearby, and the sculptures of the strange dogs move their heads, yes most scary psychological thriller of all, Eleanor drives into a tree.
@@leslie5999 BEST OCCULT/WITCH MOVIE IS 1960 BLACK SUNDAY WITH BARBARA STEELE!!! MY FAV. AND 1960 BRIDES OF DRACULA, WITH PETER CUSHING, BEST DRACULA. BEST WOLFMAN WAS 1961 OLIVER REED, THE CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF. ALL SCARED ME TO DEATH WHEN I WAS LITTLE! LATE FRIDAY NIGHT, AT 12:30 AM, THRILLER WITH BORIS KARLOFF ON TV!!!
I've heard of those movies but never seen them. Ray Milland was in Lost Weekend and played a chronic alcoholic from the few scenes I remember. Never heard of this show but I watched Twilight Zone all the time.
The first real spooky tv shows back in the day & because my mother was a big fan of spooky shows we watched. I wouldn’t have recommended it to small children.
For some reason I’ve always loved this episode and have watched it several times. I think it was the great character development of the two leads, and perfect casting. The deliciously greedy, evil wife was perfect. I thank this channel for existing!
@Jade Green: Okay . . . I'll count you as one vote for John Newland as authentically "tall, dark, and handsome". For some reason, his intergenerational appeal (although not universal) . . . interests me.
@@one-step-beyond-1959 I was quite impressed by an acting performance of his that I saw once here on TH-cam as well. It was several years ago now and I can't remember which show but it was another of those early supernatural series. He just had an attractive air about him - that whole courteous, intelligent demeanour.
@@one-step-beyond-1959 Me too. For me it was far from one of the best. I was really impressed, and scared by many others , such as "Reunion", and "Premonition." But the one that really psyched me out was the one with a teacher called Clara : haunted me for ages !
I think One Step Beyond had the best script writers of the time. I remember as a kid falling to sleep to the Perry Mason music and this show's music came in somewhere. The atmosphere of that time----the 60s before it became The 60s---was very glamorous and eerie,
I watched this years ago. It really was one step beyond. When I was younger I was driving to work with my radio on. I said wouldn't it be nice if this song played. Guess what the next song was. After a total of eight correct hits wishing what the next song would be, I've come to the belief that life can be very interesting indeed.
You glimpsed the Beyond. I was pretty confident of Other Forces Out There then rented a true haunted 1880s cabin up here and now have No Doubt. All kinds of forces; good as well. Embrace them.
My favorite episode. It scared the hell out me when I first saw it. That final scene of Jeanette on the wall was something I will never forget. Thank you for posting this video.
As a kid back then the music alone was so scary! I do remember this episode and another about a son who came to see his parents I think but at the end you found out he had recently died.
This was the absolute high point of the entire series. People couldn't sleep normally for days after watching this episode. People were scared incredibly. I watched the effect on my family and afterward my neighbors. Amazing super effect TV. The entire series was, really Broadway quality productions, the staging, dialog and writing was light years ahead of What was on TV then...or now. Collier Young and John Newman were important Broadway figures according to members of my family who were frequent play goers in the mid to late 50's.
+jo egleton: This leads to a problematic consideration. Let us say that I create the absolutely, positively, categorically funniest joke of ALL time. You're the first person to hear it . . . and you just laugh and laugh and laugh. Unbeknownst to us all, another guy coincidentally creates the very same joke. He tells it to you . . . it's only the SECOND time anyone in the whole wide world has EVER heard it . . . but now you yawn in boredom. Does the guy still get credit for having created a funny joke . . . or not (?)
jo egleton, I enjoyed this episode very much, especially the performance of the villainess (in her coquettish manner, she reminds me of Vivien Leigh)...but I must agree with you. It doesn't fill me with the scares (as, for example, the Nan Adams-hitchiker episode of "The Twilight Zone" has always done to me--lol). Having said that, though, I must admit that the writing, directing and acting of this episode is of excellent quality, I think. I love 1950s sci-fi and suspense, and the quality of these "One Step Beyond" downloads is impeccable.
Fantastic! I love this era of suspensful storytelling. I have never seen this series and that was an awesome introduction. It reminds me how much I miss 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents'. Thanks for the upload. More please... 🕊️
The sad reality is back then these were ground breaking shows and when directors try to remake them they don't do as well. Twilight zone has been rebooted so many times, but never makes it to season 2 or 3.
I’m a widower for eight years. I will never marry again! I hate having stains on my wall. On the other hand, I like 🍓 strawberries - so there’s always a chance I’ll change my mind.
I first saw this episode in the early 60's when I was about 9 yrs old. Scared me so much that I think it gave me my first gray hair. I spent the rest of the day looking at the floor trying to avoid any spots or smudges that might have appeared on the walls. Great show. Still creepy.
"Janette died on the 12th of April..." I'm watching this on April 12th 2018! Maybe I will see her face on the wall lol I think I've taken 1 step beyond!
This is another of my favorite OSB episodes and an example of the superior screen writing back then as compared to now. I think being in black and white, when the face on the wall is finally revealed, it's alot more terrifying. Note also, the viewer could see the face in the background just as the Count orders his wife to look at the wall, after all the build up and never seeing it before, Brrrrrrrr, Well done.
Hands down, that was the most convincing scream I've ever seen and heard!! She scared the living daylights out of me! I seriously hope this episode doesn't work its way into my dreams tonight.
First saw this when I was 9 and it really, really upset me. Four years later, I saw it again as a rather late Saturday night rerun - and it still scared me. Of all the episodes, this is the one I remember most. That evolving skeletal face. The Biblical reference.
Some people are scared by physical horrors . . . and some are scared by moral horrors. In this episode, you get your choice of which to be scared by . . .
The 1 I remember was when the guy was turning into a lizard, n there was another 1 in which there was some kind of battle, n they saw something unexplained, but I'm not sure if it was this series.
One Step Above anything Produced Today, a Timeless Quality that is Completely absent in our Present reality, this level of Quality is One Step Beyond Present Day Producers
I’ve thought of this movie since I was young and can’t believe TH-cam has it! There is one more I want to find and I’ll bet it is from this series. Wow!
First time I’ve seen this, absolutely brilliant i loved it , passed it to my family and friends group thanks for sharing. Her dress was beautiful, she was a beautiful woman
Great Episode,This and the one where the mother and son get caught in the Cave-In,I think it's called Epilogue,These two scared me the most when I was a kid.
You have to admire actors who can go down a bunch of stairs without looking down to the steps. It's a skill that passes unnoticed. You can only apreciate it when you try it yourself.
I'm watching this as I lie trapped in bed by a dislocated (and broken) ankle.....and, yup....I was rushing down some stairs without paying attention to the fact thst the bottom step was only 2 inches high...
I thought everybody knew the classic Biblical tale of the Babylonian king seeing "the handwriting on the wall." The king asked all of his seers and wise men in the court to translate what it said, but none of them could. Then Daniel, one of the Israelite captives who had been taken from Jerusalem when it was overrun by the Babylonian empire, stepped forward and said he could read it for the king. Shortly thereafter, the Babylonian empire was overrun by the Persians, who took over the land. As the story goes, somehow a gate to the city was left open over a water way and the Persians just floated right into the city in the dead of night on rafts through the open gate. They had taken control of the palace and killed a number of soldiers before the rest of the Babylonians could even get organized. "Seeing the handwriting on the wall" or "He's not seeing the handwriting on the wall" is an old saying - at least, I grew up hearing it and still use it (70 years old).
Beautiful. Thanks for posting ♥️❤️ they don’t make those films anymore; they don’t make these dresses either anymore. Women then were so very beautiful 😻
I USED TO SEE IT ON THE DVD. I BOUGHT A FEW AT THE 99 CENT STORE YEARS BACK WHEN THEY WOULD SELL OLD TIME MOVIES AND TV SHOWS , REALLY LOVE IT. THE THEME SONG IS SPOOKY. I ALSO BOUGHT A SILENT MOVIE.
One of my favorite oldies but goodies tv series. This black and white masterpiece is far better than most of the stuff they created in the last 30 years.
I must've been around 5 when I saw this and it's the only episode I still remember to this day because it scared the crap out of me. Even more troubling, was why I was allowed to see this? [:-/...WHERE WAS MY ADULT SUPERVISION?! lol!
These films are much more "healthy" for youngsters to stimulate their imaginations rather than the politically correct crap you get these days. First time I saw this film the final image on the wall scared the crap out of me !
TIDBITS/ Doris Dowling 15 May 1923-18 June 2004, age 81. Born in Detroit, passed away in L.A. Married 3 times Artie Shaw (WOW !! She was his SEVENTH wife)) R. F. Blumote, L.B. Kaufman. She played an "escort" who took a liking to Ray Milland in "The Lost Week-End". She also came out in "The Andy Griffith Show", "Have Gun-Will Travel", "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". For some of you young'uns out there, you have to watch "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". He also was a MASTER story teller, an older version of John Newland, except a little funnier, but NOT as good-looking as Mr. Newland.
I bought the CD box set at Frys electronic store before they closed. There are some story's I never seen before in the set. But I love watching them and most of them still scare me to this day. I hope they do a modern one one day.

Okay everyone; how about a thumbs up for the artist responsible for the image on the wall?
The painting on the wall was probably created by my father in law Charles/Charlie "Carlos" Gemora. He passed away in 1961.
Am 71 and still watch this
Beat cha. I’m 80 ! LOL
As a kid, I watch these old reruns and loved them.
I watched this show when I babysit at night !! The music never ceases to give me the goosebumps!
The music is very scary for sure.
It made it a lot more scary in another person's house with the lights turned low; thanks for the memory 😁
I used to watch this show as a kid! Loved it! It was right up there with the Twilight Zone, Fantasmic Features, Outer Limits and Chillarama! That was a great time.
Curious that it was in production for only two and one half seasons.
Night Gallery in the 70s was one of my favorites too.
I saw this 1st run at 10 years old and always scared me all night long. I am now 70 years old and still mesmerized.

Yes the music itself creeps me out. I listened to it on TH-cam and it was even more creepy.
This is the most eerie and haunting music ever written, going back to the very dawn of time.
Fantastic! I love this era of suspensful storytelling. I have never seen this series and that was an awesome introduction. It reminds me how much I miss 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents'. Thanks for the upload. More please... 🕊️
The sad reality is back then these were ground breaking shows and when directors try to remake them they don't do as well. Twilight zone has been rebooted so many times, but never makes it to season 2 or 3.
I'll never bring myself to remarry if I should ever be alive without my spouse.
I'm married and I'm hanging in by a thread .
I’m a widower for eight years. I will never marry again! I hate having stains on my wall.
On the other hand, I like 🍓 strawberries - so there’s always a chance I’ll change my mind.
A time when acting was based on talent.
This scared me to death at age 8 years in 1959...
A lot of people seem to have seen this one and remembered it. More than many other episodes . . .
I first saw this episode in the early 60's when I was about 9 yrs old. Scared me so much that I think it gave me my first gray hair. I spent the rest of the day looking at the floor trying to avoid any spots or smudges that might have appeared on the walls. Great show. Still creepy.
"Janette died on the 12th of April..." I'm watching this on April 12th 2018! Maybe I will see her face on the wall lol I think I've taken 1 step beyond!
Next . . . viewing for this Saturday night: th-cam.com/video/FuUqx_AVec8/w-d-xo.html
OMG! 😱😱😱😱😱
This woman is quite annoying yo say the least!
This is another of my favorite OSB episodes and an example of the superior screen writing back then as compared to now. I think being in black and white, when the face on the wall is finally revealed, it's alot more terrifying.
Note also, the viewer could see the face in the background just as the Count orders his wife to look at the wall, after all the build up and never seeing it before, Brrrrrrrr, Well done.
Hands down, that was the most convincing scream I've ever seen and heard!! She scared the living daylights out of me! I seriously hope this episode doesn't work its way into my dreams tonight.
I agree, for me the chills weren't from the image itself, but from her reaction to it. You could almost believe she died of fright.
Thank you! Never heard of this show. Intelligently written.
I loved this episode,Doris Dowling was a amazing actress in this episode 👏💫.
Another great episode. Thanks for the upload.
The French actor really brought weight to this one..
I loved this episode. I saw this around 8 or 9 years old scared me. It’s still scary. Loved them all💕
@Patricia Martinez: This seems to be the most remembered episode . . .
The mind is strange . A guilty conscience will make us imagine things .
What worries me is that when people have "hallucinations" how do we know that these entities are not really there ?
@@Biggles2498 a fascinating question. 😭
These were the best shows. The black and white,to me,made them even better. It's great seeing these again. I LOVE YOU TUBE. Thank you
I used to watch this scary show. The music scared my younger brother so he wouldnt watch it. 😅 This was a gr8 episode. I remember it.
The thing of learned about "spirits" is...they cannot harm or hurt u.
But real people can.
I know better
My father always said the same thing.
Cant believe I've found your videos, for years I've watched The Twilight Zone, Tales from the Crypt and now I've found One step Beyond. Thank you
Glad you found this channel . . .
No doubt you watched the Outer Limits, too? 😘
Night Gallery was my childhood favorite. It scared me, but I didn’t stop watching it.
My most favorite episode!!
First saw this when I was 9 and it really, really upset me. Four years later, I saw it again as a rather late Saturday night rerun - and it still scared me. Of all the episodes, this is the one I remember most. That evolving skeletal face. The Biblical reference.
Some people are scared by physical horrors . . . and some are scared by moral horrors. In this episode, you get your choice of which to be scared by . . .
The 1 I remember was when the guy was turning into a lizard, n there was another 1 in which there was some kind of battle, n they saw something unexplained, but I'm not sure if it was this series.
Exactly the same here. Up to the same age!
I just found the One Step Beyond series on my cable system, and this was the episode I most remembered, too. It still has an impact, doesn't it?
@Capt Zdq: Here's the latter one: th-cam.com/video/qAHL_jPMsDU/w-d-xo.html&
Thanks for uploading these shows! I really appreciate it. Well done 👏👏👏👏
Glad you found them . . .
One Step Above anything Produced Today, a Timeless Quality that is Completely absent in our Present reality, this level of Quality is One Step Beyond Present Day Producers
We've explored the "timeless quality" that these videos evoke in our sister channel. Maybe it will interest you: www.youtube.com/@mental_time_travel
This was a fun and interesting show to watch growing up
Oooh I like the ending to this. I didn't think it was going in that way. Really cool.
I’ve thought of this movie since I was young and can’t believe TH-cam has it! There is one more I want to find and I’ll bet it is from this series. Wow!
Glad you found this channel . . .
I love this program and watched it when it was on television. I come here to ogle John Newland, too... :-))))) What a classy guy.
Newland's command of the English language is great
Good show
First time I’ve seen this, absolutely brilliant i loved it , passed it to my family and friends group thanks for sharing. Her dress was beautiful, she was a beautiful woman
Glad you found this channel . . .
I watched this series as a young kid. Not only was the theme music scary but knowing that the stories were based on true accounts
Thank you to the generous person for uploading these videos.
Yayyyy, one of my favourite shows. Awesome storylines. Ty 🙌
Great Episode,This and the one where the mother and son get caught in the Cave-In,I think it's called Epilogue,These two scared me the most when I was a kid.

You have to admire actors who can go down a bunch of stairs without looking down to the steps.
It's a skill that passes unnoticed. You can only apreciate it when you try it yourself.
I'm watching this as I lie trapped in bed by a dislocated (and broken) ankle.....and, yup....I was rushing down some stairs without paying attention to the fact thst the bottom step was only 2 inches high...
Was watching the ballet Romeo and Juliet . Juliet runs down some stairs from the balcony and leaps off the last 4or 5 In slippery pointe shoes .
@@leanie9660 May you heal quickly, my friend.
Right on, Fa Da. I've seen and been aware of this several times in many different movies-TV shows - thinking to myself, 'Don't trip! Don't fall!'
I liked that the director of this had a lot of biblical knowledge
You are so right,and I liked that too. Being a Christian that I am
I thought everybody knew the classic Biblical tale of the Babylonian king seeing "the handwriting on the wall." The king asked all of his seers and wise men in the court to translate what it said, but none of them could. Then Daniel, one of the Israelite captives who had been taken from Jerusalem when it was overrun by the Babylonian empire, stepped forward and said he could read it for the king. Shortly thereafter, the Babylonian empire was overrun by the Persians, who took over the land. As the story goes, somehow a gate to the city was left open over a water way and the Persians just floated right into the city in the dead of night on rafts through the open gate. They had taken control of the palace and killed a number of soldiers before the rest of the Babylonians could even get organized. "Seeing the handwriting on the wall" or "He's not seeing the handwriting on the wall" is an old saying - at least, I grew up hearing it and still use it (70 years old).
@@jannibal9273 wow very interesting thank you for sharing wonder what knowledge I'll have at 70 haha just turned 20
I love these, first watched them when I was only about 8 or 9 with my late mother, she loved them too. Thank you.
Love this show when it first aired to present. Glad it's showing again and new sub. 👍
Beautiful. Thanks for posting ♥️❤️ they don’t make those films anymore; they don’t make these dresses either anymore. Women then were so very beautiful 😻
I USED TO SEE IT ON THE DVD. I BOUGHT A FEW AT THE 99 CENT STORE YEARS BACK WHEN THEY WOULD SELL OLD TIME MOVIES AND TV SHOWS , REALLY LOVE IT. THE THEME SONG IS SPOOKY. I ALSO BOUGHT A SILENT MOVIE.
One of my favorite oldies but goodies tv series. This black and white masterpiece is far better than most of the stuff they created in the last 30 years.
I must've been around 5 when I saw this and it's the only episode I still remember to this day because it scared the crap out of me. Even more troubling, was why I was allowed to see this? [:-/...WHERE WAS MY ADULT SUPERVISION?! lol!
There is nothing in life to be feared, only understood.
These films are much more "healthy" for youngsters to stimulate their imaginations rather than the politically correct crap you get these days. First time I saw this film the final image on the wall scared the crap out of me !
That happened to me at 10 yrs old after watching Invasion of the Body Snatchers 😫
Too funny ! :DDDDDDD
@@anonymousjohnson976 Love this quote, but I don't remember who said it.
I love One Step Beyond! Wonderful stories, great actors, and beautiful scenes.
Glad you found this channel . . .
☺️@@one-step-beyond-1959
This was great. I'm about 7 epiosdes in and I loved them all. Great show
Are you a young'un or an oldie ?
@@TREVASLARK Im and oldie lol. This was before my time tho. Ima early 70s baby lol.
Thank you ,Have a great day!
TIDBITS/ Doris Dowling 15 May 1923-18 June 2004, age 81. Born in Detroit, passed away in L.A. Married 3 times Artie Shaw (WOW !! She was his SEVENTH wife)) R. F. Blumote, L.B. Kaufman. She played an "escort" who took a liking to Ray Milland in "The Lost Week-End". She also came out in "The Andy Griffith Show", "Have Gun-Will Travel", "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". For some of you young'uns out there, you have to watch "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". He also was a MASTER story teller, an older version of John Newland, except a little funnier, but NOT as good-looking as Mr. Newland.
Playing a tough bossy woman probably wasn't too hard having growing up in Detroit...bwhahaha this is great show😂
Never heard of this show but for once YT recommended something I actually want to watch
I grew up watching The Twilight Zone, but never heard of this show! Now, I'm going to watch a few! :)
Damn good film but I think the best was The Navigator where a Ghost ordered a change of course of a large sailing ship ! West By North West.
The soundstage for that episode was excellent.
I bought the CD box set at Frys electronic store before they closed. There are some story's I never seen before in the set. But I love watching them and most of them still scare me to this day. I hope they do a modern one one day.
This episode was a classic One Step Beyond very scary as a kid watching it 📺😵!
This seems to be the most remembered (and frightening) OSB episode . . .
The music was scary too. My brother would play the record of it in the middle of the nite and try to scare us!
