You unlock this door with the key of imagination.
Beyond it is another dimension-
a dimension of sound,
a dimension of sight,
a dimension of mind.
You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance,
of things and ideas.
You've just crossed over into the twilight zone.

"An occurrence at owl creek bridge" in two forms-
as it was dreamed and as it was lived and died.
This is the stuff of fantasy, the thread of imagination,
the ingredients ofthe twilight zone.
And now, mr. Serling.
Twilight zoneregular charles beaumont
brings us our next offering,
a tale of age and youth and a beautiful woman.
Our star is ann blyth, our story, "queen of the nile."
They say that beauty is only skin deep,
and when the surface is scratched,
what you might conceivably find underneath
is something quite apart from beauty.
This is the rather intriguing basis
of our next presentation onthe twilight zone.
Miss ann blyth in "queen of the nile."
