Each episode of this TV series depicts a short, strange tale…with a twist! With eerie stories vaguely reminiscent of ‘The Twilight Zone,’ viewers learn to appreciate that things are often not as they seem. The usual plot formula is comprised of an initial normal, mundane situation that gradually begins to get off-kilter, with suspense building up to the final, chilling, surprise conclusion .
