Product Description

Before The Twilight Zone there was…

One Step Beyond

Hosted by John Newland

Have you ever sensed that you’ve been some place before, or witnessed a bewildering situation involving the unexplainable or the paranormal? Have you ever been curious about past lives, ESP, clairvoyance, apparitions, or out-of-body experiences? If the answer to any of these questions is "yes," then you’ve taken a small step beyond. Now take a giant step with the One Step Beyond DVD collection, an anthropology of some of the best entertainment from the Golden Age of Television.

Before there was The Twilight Zone, this highly imaginative series set the groundwork for the ironic and abnormal, and was of one of the first to depict "real" accounts of the paranormal. With TV veteran John Newland as your personal "guide to the unknown," One Step Beyond will take you places far beyond your normal, every day reality…and once you take the giant leap, you will never look at things the same way again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally..., November 26, 2004

By	James Poore (Bangor, ME USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Finally, a long overdue classic is available on DVD. Instead of relying on the truly fantastic a' la Twilight Zone or Outer Limits, One Step Beyond achieves it's creepiness because of the almost-plausibility of it's stories. Amazing things happening to ordinary people, and they "really happened."

If you are a Rod Serling fan, definitely give John Newland a try!

4.0 out of 5 stars When you want downright freaky...., July 29, 2005

By	R. Hinton (Oceanside, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

In the early sixties, they played this show (reruns, I guess) on Saturdays around noon. I remember thinking how frightening it would have been to see this show at night. When you wanted weird you watched The Twilight Zone. When you wanted weirder you watched The Outer Limits. When you wanted downright freaky you watched One Step Beyond,.. preferrably during the daylight hours.

4.0 out of 5 stars Get the expanded 12 disc set instead, May 28, 2007

By	Paul J. Mular (San Carlos, CA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This set is good, but even better is Delta's expanded 12 disc set.

Also check out VCI's One Step Beyond 2-disc set, it has episodes not on Delta's 12 & 8 disc sets.
