In the credits I mistakenly omitted Martin Grams' well-researched book Way Out: A History and Episode Guide to Roald Dahl's Spooky 1961 Television Program, which was key in being able to include the details about that series.
Also be sure to read Terror Television: American Series, 1970-1999 by John Kenneth Muir
