What happens
On Halloween night, the Anderson family drives home from a weekend with the Palmers and finds itself lost on a muddy country road. Their car stalls, and they search for directions and gasoline. Jim, Margaret, Betty, Kathy and bud take shelter in an empty caretaker's cottage, where unexplained events begin to unsettle them. Jim insists there is a logical explanation for each one. The episode is part of the Father Knows Best series and was first broadcast on October 26, 1950. Robert Young plays Jim Anderson.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
