@@dannynicastro3207 NICE
UnBentReed! ....true. Glad we found this channel. Old time quality tv shows....and very telling!
BINGE-WATCHING LIKE CRAZY! THANK YOU!
Anyone out there remember the tv show “Dark Shadows”? It had good, spooky music too.
Boy, does this bring back a lot of great memories as a child around 8 or so. Home with my parents and little sister watching this show all cuddled up to our mom. Thank you!
I know what you mean. For me it was grandma.
But understood nothing.🤣
I enjoyed the beginning when they're messing around with the box, cause I like how they were just bored guys having fun and teasing each other a bit
My oldest newest favorite...I'm binge watching!! Thank you for all the videos.. well done!! 👍👍👏👏👏
As a kid,I used to stay up til 4am in the morning to catch these episodes...12 inch black and white TV....safely under the covers.....those were the days....I loved all the episodes..👻
Becareful you're going to tell our age..lol
Francis...
😄😁😆😅
@@francislee8779 We're ageless. - even with CoV.
You must be as old as the hills now.
But understood none.🤣
Binge watching since the Covid 19 quarantine, still great stuff and that darn music still creeps me out after all these years!
I have to agree about the music, very creepy
Yeah you had this show twilight zone and alfredo hitchcock..boy those were the scariest tv shows of that era and we would stay up late as we could to watch but of course sleep would catch us most nights..lol
Iam from México.
I dont have the age to see this in the 60's
And I think is a great tv show.
This show has the most eerie music , and beautiful at the same time I EVER heard . Also I wish sometimes such as this story, it would be longer. I wanted to see more and more! This show was before the Twilight Zone, but BOTH shows were the ultimate in the unknown and intrigue
I think you can transmigrate into the being of an animal. In his great books, Carlos Castenada quotes Don Juan as saying he could be any animal he wanted to be. Back in the 60s when I was a teenager, I watched intently as an eagle flew in the sky above the desert. I watched the eagle for maybe 10 minutes before I started willing myself to see through the eagle's eyes. I kept picturing in my head what the eagle was seeing and soon enough I was behind the eagle's eyes. The eyes were so good that I could see minute particles on the ground surrounded by cactus. I don't know how long I stayed in that state but I remember the feeling of weightlessness and flying. That was an intense experience. I've tried to do it with other animals but that was the most successful I ever was.
Cool experience. Thanks for sharing.
The ability to transition from human to animal is called lycanthropy.
Reading your comment and of your experience, (thankyou for sharing) reminds me of the fascination of the stories of indigenous Indians, Nth and Sth American continents, and the Mongolian Sharmans who can meditate themselves into this condition and experience. Makes me ponder on the limitations of the realms of reality and the Laws that govern them - if they can be governed, by we Humans.
Whenever I got in trouble with the principle, I always had the sense that I had been there before.
Remember watching these when I was a kid back in the 60's. Black and white TV of course...
Black and white for sure. I remember watching my first deal on a color TV....Arkansas vs Ole Miss sometime in the late 60's. It was a bowl game I think. Announcer was Keith Jackson.
But understood none.🤣
These episodes are based on true stories. A few, like this one, are hard to really believe (may be based on a rumor), but theyre just as exciting. This one is really scary. It's one of my favorites.
Hold the Cobra
One of my favorites too, though it's hard for me to credit that this particular episode is really based on a true story.
I appreciate your comments, I see them on nearly every episode.
John new land was such a great host and director, a true legend.
@@geezermann7865 Gee, your a glutton for punishment. (smile)
Loved this show when it aired. This one has always been my favorite, and I am glad to see you post it.
I just love all of these ; reminds me of the twilight zone; and a few older black an white Siri’s
I loved this show much more than TZ, because I was told, at least at the time, the stories were true. That's what made it so great.
Why would Alec and Pete leave Ted alone, figuring that he was "all right"? His behavior was completely bizarre and it should have been clear that he WASN'T all right.
That's the logical "Mind-set" of the masculine thinking apparatus.
@@carolleenkelmann4751 American woman, stay away from me.
Yes, after having intiated a demonic spiritual game & seeing the influential effect thereafter on him, there should've been some accountability happening. Any friend worth their salt would've come forward you'd think!
This was connected to Confusious not demonic. Pete & Alec had no idea what was transpiring. Spells cast correctly "work." Not all spells cast R demonic or evil.BLACKFAWN
@@candycautionby2076 Whether it's Confucius or demonic, if your friend believes that he is a leopard and is acting like a leopard, why would you leave him alone?
The music in this show is starting to be as creepy as the music from tales from the Darkside
Yep tales from the darkside intro was seriously creepy
Sounds almost like " Night Gallery'!
A favorite episode of mine!🐆🐆🐆
I've been binge watching these, thanks for the uploads.
Any relation to Travis Crabtree?
@@KennyRider137 Nope, but I know one.
Me too
Great series on par with TZ, maybe better.
New to me , but I am binge watching them also
I watched all of Dragnet, now it's this.
If you are interested, the music is by Harry Lubin. "Fear" was the main theme...."Weird" is what you here playing low in the background during the episode and at the end.
Thanks for the info, youtube has his music available, and "fear" reminds me a bit of Dark Shadows music
@@Garacha222 yes, without the background mood music, most scenes would be ineffective. If I ever reduce my standards to watching "pure" horror shows, then I just turn the sound off and I come our unscathed.
Kinda reminds one, of a film titled "THE LEOPARD MAN", by popular suspense/horror director, 'Val Lewton'. There's alot of similar traits! It's from 1943, in glorious b&w, and well worth watching 😊!!!
Just saw THE DREAM episode. Terrific show. Thanks for showing
I grew up watching this series . Very cool . Thanks for posting this .
But understood none.🤣
Use to be a show on Discovery called "City Confidential", a crime show narrated by one of the best voices ever, Paul Winfield. The absolute best narrator voice. But I just wondered how great it would be to have another show like Winfield's narrated with a similar voice or John Newland's. Everybody makes a fuss over Morgan Freeman...but Paul Winfield could top him.
Yes he had a striking voice...very distinguished
Hames Earl Jones!

PROPS TO MR. RUDYARD KIPLING. WONDERFUL WORDMASTER!!!😶😑🙄😏😄
My name is clake Kent :-):-):-)
It spooked the old dog anyway🤣
The fact that the dog was responding to Ted as though Ted was a real cat should have been enough to convince Pete Rankin that this was something more than a gag if it wasn't for Pete's stubbornness and cynicism.
Some people can't believe what they see even though they are looking right at it. Janice
That looks like a fun game to play if you want to become possesed!
Any game can possess you. You just have to be aware of the dangers and posssess the strength to pull out ahead of capitulation.
@@carolleenkelmann4751 that's the strangest thing lve ever read being said about games in my Life...
@@bonniebester606 game addiction
I was dumbfounded when the character Ted asked, "what's a hexagon?" Also, the guide (John Newland) said there wasn't a warning on the sticks, but in the book there was a page that read, "There is danger that lies ahead for he who chooses this unless.....................I would consider that to be a warning.
I like these even better than twilight zone, though they’re a close second, because these are true. Or rather based on true accounts.
You are right
For many great episodes twiligth have, always think this is not real, like was one step beyond.
As a married man or a woman you always find yourself thinking about the past . Thinking I wish I knew what I know now in was still a kid. 👍🇺🇸
I wouldn't mind living my life again.. on one condition...starting off with the knowlege I have gained in this life. Then I wouldn't have to reminisce.
Married are getting rare in the USA, so that qualification is moot.
Besides, good or bad, you are bound to think of your past, when getting old.
“The Forests of the Night,” Season 2, Episode 18, aired 19 January 1960. Alfred Ryder as Ted Doliver, Mark Roberts as Rankin, Douglas Dick as Alec Brown, Stacy Graham as Mrs. Doliver, John Damler as the Forest Ranger, John Newland as Himself-Host.

Oh, I'm ten years out. Thanks for this info. I was wondering and too lazy to go chasing the information. Just as well I sometimes read the comments to these films.
Loved the series! 💕💕
Ahhh the good old days when you could sneeze and no one screamed, masked up and sanitised for hours on end!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you!
I have been watching one step and beyond for four years. I love ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ 💕 all of these uploads thank you. I enjoy them.
Jaguars were once native to Texas and the Rocky Mountains, a black panther was killed in Colorado in the 1960's, and they're still active in Mexico down to Veracruz.
People have them as pets (used to) then when gramma didnt feel comfortable they were let out into the open to roam free and eat someones pet rabbit.
My x boyfriend saw one laying on the side of the road driving into the hills here in Washington. We live in Area where rich people could import such exotic pets and like a lot of them, they get set free or escape.
In Texas, there is a city Fort Worth aka PantherCity.
@@Wellch Just yesterday I heard from a tracker friend that a black panther is active in Washington State.
@@braddelany6234 See!
This is awesome I ❤❤❤❤❤❤it. Amazing job thank you so much
Thanks for the upload PizzaFlix.
This actor always ends up in some form of animal story. He played an English guy who was to hang for murder, but tthey couldnt hang him for different reasons. He "saw" his death at the feet of a lion while on the rope, but no lions in London so he got cocky. Ends up falling and breaking his neck at the feet of a statue of a lion ! Did a great Cockney accent.
Ted's wife resembles a cross between Faye Dunaway and Jane Seymour, she's beautiful. Great show.
There are more than a few cultures about transformation humans into animals. There are stories from the Celtics. Native American People with stories of Skin Walker to name a few.
" transformation humans into animals." They always have been.
I mean, animals.
Yes, seal skin woman, too. Old Irish Fishing Village lore. Id say he got hurt when they knocked him out but how do they shoot a leopard in California?
It would b cool if they bring back shows like this and twilight zone and make up new stories n tales in black n white 2021 style......tell me that wouldn't kick ass
As one said about old movies "movies were (more) real, when women were women and men were men". Because of lack of technology the movies were more real in general, aside from, say, the cheap tricks while driving cars :-)....people were more real, locations were (mostly) real, life portrayed was more real ....to paraphrase a well known quote - people making movies then were doing so because they had SOMETHING to say, not like now - just making movies to say something (and possibly make money in the process). Which is, regrettably, true for everything.
Well said.
@@65if2007 Thank you.
Very well articulated.
AND TRUE.
@@vidhushekhar17 Appreciate your comment. We as a society seem to move towards virtual reality, so unless something drastic happens, we will lose our real origins and as a result ultimately die as a human civilization - if we conduct a thought experiment involving a pessimistic extreme...
Perhaps we have said all that needs to be spoken in films. All that is left is regurgitation in an altered awareness of what "Entertainment" is in a very hedonistic "Zeit Alter."
All that is said has been said; all that has to be sung, has been sung."
"...but since no one has been listening, everything has to be said again."
Do not try this at home folks.😯
You don't have to tell me twice
Not unless you're wise in the ways of Confucius.
Wise in what ways of confucius? Janice
@@janicejimerson2096 Good question. I don't know. But clearly, Ted WANTED to become a leopard even though he seemed to have a pretty good life with a steady job in San Jose and a wife and two friends who cared for him.
He was willing to leave all that behind for no apparent reason other than as a leopard, he wasn't afraid of anyone; everyone was afraid of him. It didn't occur to him that a man with a gun could end all that -- all the more likely if the man with the gun was AFRAID of him. If your opponent is armed and you are not, then you're only worse off if that opponent is actually afraid of you.
Today, the mysteriously-appearing leopard probably wouldn't be killed; he would probably be tranquilized, shipped back to the Orient, and released into the wild.
Still, perhaps more familiarity with the writings of Confucius would have enabled Ted to avoid or resist the spell of that game.
Does anyone believe this story to be true or based on a rumor? Could it have really happened? Janice
My God he NAILED it 6:29 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I've been so damn bored lately I'll stoop to chipping off my freshly painted nail polish just so I can LOOK busy🤣🤣🤣
Great movie. Thanks. Very funny at times.
The great Alfred Ryder!♥️
19:05
That karate chop that Alec fells Ted with didn't look particularly impressive and shouldn't have been effective at all if Ted was in the process of physically turning into a real leopard.
This show can turn real live people who wete once normal into estranged people who lose their friends.
@@shirleyfunte3063 so can murder.
The guy in the white shirt played in another episode where they couldn't hang him he is a great actor .I noticed all the older movies have great actors not like today.I love watching these they take me back to a better time even though I wasn't born yet.I love this show.
Alfred Ryder was featured in the TV series "The Invaders".
How's this for a trippy bit of casting?
The shape-shifter is played by Alfred Ryder who, only a few years later, would play Robert Crater in the Star Trek episode, "The Man Trap." Crater's wife, Nancy, is revealed to be a predatory alien shape-shifter...!

@@auletjohnast03638 Indeed! I'm a child of the 70-80s. A French one at that and many series weren't brodcast at that time in my country (Star Trek TOS only came in the early 80s!).

If you look closely stating at 16:21 you can see that is a Sloth Bear that lives in India. I guess they couldn't find a black bear from California.
they couldn't afford a stunt leopard
Me too Lori I've been watching the episodes for about two weeks
THIS IS #3 🤔 WHERE FOLKS PLAYED WITH FIRE DANGEROUS ITEMS BEYOND THIS WIIRLD LIKE JACKS & JUMPROPES😱
"Have you ever had the feeling that you knew what someone was going to say just before he said it?" Yes, it happened to me a few times. Once was while I was watching a soap opera; I knew what a line of dialog was going to be before the actor said it. Another time was while I was standing in line at the grocery store; there was a woman standing behind me and I heard her voice in my mind say something two seconds before she said it. Those where the only times, though. I haven't quite experienced anything like that since.
Good story telling and acting.
This onae is one of the least likely to have happened, but still, it was great fun to watch. Some of these episodes are actual and some are based on stories and hear say. But theyre all fun. This one was great.
Not so. ALL stories here are on record.
If Ted -- in his new identity as a leopard -- had encountered a lion, he would have found to his regret that not everything is afraid of him. You just have to watch other lion-leopard encounters on CZcams to know that.
Alfred Ryder, who was Professor Crater from Star Trek, The Man Trap.
The guy playing Ted was great in the episode of the guy who could not be killed.
There are a lot of young version actor and actress "surprises" if you are quick enough to recognise and, place a name to a face. One I thought I recognised instantly from Hogan's Heros : Werner Klemperer. (Colonel Klink) - son of the famous Otto Klemperer who emmigrated to California in 1933 and conductor of the LA Philharmonic. Werner was only 13 yrs old at the time of immigration.
Isn't "Ted" (the leopard guy) played by the late Alfred Ryder, who later was Professor Crater in one of the first Star Trek TOS shows "The man trap"? Better a leopard than a salt vampire.
A shape-shifting salt vampire yet.
1:34 - 3:09
I think that Mrs. Dolliver thinks or suspects that the other two did away with her husband. So must the authorities have thought after hearing that crazy leopard story.
;D really enjoyed this
That was a really good story, maybe based on fact, maybe not, but whatever the “truth” is this screen interpretation was very enjoyable, not scary, just enjoyable, thanks for sharing. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴
Warning label and they still put the flammable liquid on the fireplace mantle?
The "leopard" man was in the episode called The Devil's Laugh.
Laughter and that's one of my least favorite episodes
@@upthedownescalator630 mine, too, lol. It's ironic that his character died at the foot of a lion in that episode and here he's the leopard man.
@@jjkhawaiian Hey I didn't think of that but yeah haha that is funny. I just didn't like the way he laughed the entire episode
Alfred Ryder--Prof. Crater in The Man Trap, the 1st official episode of Star Trek TOS
He had a British accent in that one.
Excellent
I Always remember this movie 😮
He was in the Star Trek TOS episode of Man Trap.
@17:03 lol
Precognition synchronicities happen to everyone; some more than others, but most dismiss them as coincidence. I prefer my friend Cookie's explanation, "The universe is whispering to you." 😊
The biggest problem they face yet is...who's gonna clean the cat box?
Shots, bathing cat, clip nails ,keep kitty inside.
The canine actor was Very good in this
Hes a fine actor. In another of these episodes, he plays a killer in England who gets hanged, but the rope breaks. They couldnt kill him. When they tried the first time he saw while falling, how he was going to die, so he knew they couldnt kill him. Anyway, in that episode he was a low class Englishman, and he did a great accent.
@@axiomist1076 I was just saying that, I hate The Devil's Laughter for some reason. It's one that really messed my mind up probably cause he was so manic
The canine actor and whoever it is that shouts "Got it!" at the end are the only actors who do not get a credit in this episode.
I like is show thanks.
manuel maldonado jr ...saw reruns of this in 80s or maybe 90s....dont remember exactly....right up there with Twilight Zone and some of The Outer Limits episodes.
The were-leopard (Therianthropes, Therians or Shape-Shifters) is only one of the legendary creatures. Watch the Cat People movies...both new and old.
love it creepy siting watching the storms blowing the rain is pouring dowm oerfact night
At 1:18 - 1:33, John Newland says that a warning should have been included along with the leopard stick. But at 9:02 - 9:09, it's shown that a warning IS included as part of the set containing all of the sticks.
If this story is true they chose to ignore the warning the game gave to he that played it. Janice
@@janicejimerson2096 Well, it's a continuity gap in this dramatization anyway. This is one of my favorite episodes, but I have a hard time believing that there's any truth to it.
I can't find any reference in Google to a man possibly changing into a leopard other than links to this show.
@@65if2007 werewolf anyone?
This 1960 episode of "One Step Beyond" isn't the first time a fantasy TV show used the Book of Changes as a plot device. In 1969 the daytime Gothic soap opera "Dark Shadows" used the Book of Changes in a time-travel story that sent Barnabas Collins back to 1897 Collinwood. In "The Forests of the Night", the Book of Changes turns the Ted Dolliver character into a leopard. In actuality, the Book of Changes is better known as the I Ching, an ancient Chinese method of divination. 🤔
Now that was a bit of a stretch.
There are no leopards here but I’ve heard there are jaguars in New Mexico and Arizona..
At 9:52 begins some seriously disturbing erotic cosplay. I just thank all that's decent that there was no stipper pole in the room.
Script writers - without them there would be no drama (film, plays etc.). A large part of the attration for me is gaining the "feel"/knowledge of the peronality of the script-writer(s) that contribute to the success of the screen-play. We don't need a set of chinese wooden sticks to effect a change in ourselves. Maybe using the knowledge and truths of Confusius (or Christ) would help but without applying personal effort, there would be no overcoming the "internal beast". One is constantly playing with fire. "Tiger, tiger burnig bright, in the forests........." There is so much more poetic content in these older scripts. ...A sign of the times?
Dam Ted became a Leporad
Thanks. This is a very creepy and weird story. I wished ppl wouldn't shoot animals tho. In this case a man!... sad.
The acting is really weak in this episode. It seems forced and uncomfortable, like Ted drinking from a can with both hands. Anyway, One Step Beyond is one of my favorite old TV series, bringing back memories of my sisters and I sitting on the couch with a blanket tucked under our chins. That way we could cover our heads if anything scary happened.
Reminds me of Algernon blackwood
This is so freaking creppy OMG
Thank you for not shooting cute baby bear. They had no animal rights laws in movies back then. Are dobies hunting dogs?
💪What doesn't kill me only makes me stronger
NATIVE LATINOS Fook TRUMP .....absolutely. Trump 2020. Noooo fooook Trump. Vote Trump. Truly.
TOOK 4 Xs TO Watch This One!- Could Have never guessed What Was in Stire,Or in CABIN OR THE FORREST🐱🦁🐯! BIG CATS ARE COMMON IN MYAREA /BEARS A SITUATION TOO!
THIS US A MYTHICAL LKAND HERE TOO ..FOLKS HERE SINCE THE DINOSAURS !!LAND BEFORE,TIME
if it wasn't for you, what would i do?
Loved this show as a kid, because it was ALL TRUE! Oooooh. Based on "documented facts". Of course they never explained WHO documented these "facts" or how many of the "facts" made it into the show and how much was creative dramatization And they always gave the skeptical viewers an "out". The person making the report was drunk at the time, or fevered or recovering from a mental breakdown, or was even less reliable because the subject was a child or a woman. Nevertheless, the stories chilled me as a child and I consider them overacting at its best as I view them now as an adult. All the actors are gone now but I wish I could thank them all. R.I.P. (edited only to correct my poor spelling)
I think someone named Urban documented the facts
"..mental...or a woman."
😂
👍👍👍👍
Mamma bear will whip your butt.
Was the narrator actually reading from the real booklet of the spellcaster gadget, and did he really have parts of the real game itself as shown at the beginning when he introduced the movie; the forest of the night? Janice
What's the name of that Chinese game? Looks like it got him locked in hypnosis, creepy.
People who think and talk too much get silenced...
Too bad for Ted, his wife was smokin' hot....
And yet he chose to become a leopard.
