One Step Beyond (TV-1959) PREMONITION S1E8

[@joeowens6180]

Exceptional film quality on this one! What always amazes me about this series is the number of high quality actors and actresses that were working for TV in the 1950's.

[@rowbom]

What a charmed life this girl leads. Wealthy, living in a beautiful mansion, loving father, great social life

[@elysilk4538]

Half of the success of the One Step Beyond shows were the excellent actors, direction, and scripts. The other half was Harry Lubin's unforgettable music.

[@miapdx503]

The music...haunting, and perfect. Harry Lubin was so talented 🌹

[@footfault]

Beverly Washburn's claim to Hollywood fame was the fact that she could, on short notice, produce genuine tears. As a child actress, she played many teary roles, and you knew (as a premonition) that if you were going to watch a show with Beverly in it, she would cry somewhere along the line.

[@miapdx503]

I loved her on the Loretta Young Show. But I've seen her in so many parts, always excellent. 🌹

Interesting with a much later series called "Believe it or Not" showcasing 3 interesting short stories for the viewer to decide true or false.

[@dementedweasel1]

There's a perfectly logical explanation as to why the chandelier came down. All the years of screaming and ballerina-ing caused harmonic vibrations in the ceiling which caused microscopic stress cracks in the anchor which contributed to it's descent. Add to that the ghost which kept unscrewing the big nut holding it up. Believe it, or not!

[@debraredding7215]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@tedscott1478]

[@adrianfitch8387]

When I was 10 y.o.(1973) My Mother was looking for house to rent. One of her coworkers told her about a house down the street. We went to see it, I would not go in, I cried a begged my Mother to leave. After seeing me such a state she didn't rent it. Four months later it caught on fire and 80% of house was burned to the ground.

[@Pro-Deo]

@adrianfitch8387 When I was 6 in 1966 and as soon as my dad parked the car in the driveway so we'd all go look in our new house, I refused to leave the car. One look at the house and I knew there was a lot of evil in it even tho no one ever died there. My mom started getting all mad at me about it and I said I wouldn't go in because the house was evil. I wish she had been like your mother. They forced me in and the entire time my parents owned the house, 30+ years, paranormal crap happened every day, the evil kind. After growing up and leaving, whenever we'd all get together there stuff still happened.

[@shizukamori6755]

Well, after 2 generations it's no surprise that old chandelier finally fell. Some dry rot must've set in by then.

[@RSEFX]

A shame that that "watch box" almost always appears over the acting credits. It would've been a much better idea to make it a bit smaller and put it into the upper right, in which case those people interested in knowing who was in the cast would be able to see all the names (especially those who are doing research---like me----and tracking certain actor's background and credits.)

[@juanitacampos9893]

@lana lake or RSEFX, is she the little girl on 'Old Yeller'?

[@upthedownescalator630]

@lana lake Yes! I watched Kelly's Heroes on this online site, and for copyright they cut out the credits. I hated the movie anyway, so with the credits missing, I completely wasted my time! Damn lol it took me a while to find the actor I was looking for cause he had a pretty small part in it

[@upthedownescalator630]

@lana lake Yeah honestly, my entire family thinks it's the shit, but I watched it and I thought nope, not crazy about it. Some of the stuff cracked me up, but otherwise, I wasted my time. It was a shame cause I thought it was gonna be good. Though later I found out one of the guys who was it, was the blinded soldier in "the Return" episode of One Step Beyond

[@upthedownescalator630]

@lana lake Yeah I know there's at least one clip out there, of when they're almost at the bridge, and the one guy says "It's up!" and the Nazis or someone blow it up and he very calmly and coolly says "No it ain't" . I saw that before the actual show. But yeah, Davalos was interesting, all right 🤣🤣🤣

[@upthedownescalator630]

@lana lake Yeah, I heard that on OSB. You're full of facts lol🤣🤣🤣 I love it

[@Heart2HeartBooks]

[@AllenMacCannell]

The chandelier couldn't take all the screaming.

[@donwhitt9899]

The constant screaming over several generations resonated in frequency to the molecular structure of the chandelier, vibrating the molecules year after year until the entire structure gave way. (It's only fiction!)

[@fjccommish]

I was a lot older than 11 in 1901. The actress who plays Lisa sure looks older than 11. She was 16 when this was made. She looked 30. At 46, Lisa looked 80.

[@RSEFX]

I can't imagine that they were able to build these sets specifically for this show. I assume the producers had to find standing sets from films being shot on the same lot that could be re-purposed for many of the episodes, which gave the show some impressive production values for a half-hour long anthology series.

[@michaelwertzy9808]

That's why so many "geniuses" have to claim every gothic-style of mansions are either the "Psycho" house, or "The Addams" house! That's pretty much what "backlots" and studio sets are for! It's just a moot point that it's idiotic to even think all movies and TV productions make a new set after done shooting! But why do people have to "comment and/or reply" before taking just a few seconds to THIMK about it first?! 10-Q RSEFX!

[@nobodyuknow6337]

The Beverly Hillbillies mansion was real.

[@daringmore6892]

Used to be they rented whole houses and wonder if they didnt have to visit the sites to learn and hear the stories?

[@RSEFX]

@@daringmore6892 They rented entire real houses for this particular series? That would be very unusual for he time. Location shooting of interiors was usually only done in the case of very low budget syndicated shows, like HIGHWAY PATROL, early DRAGNET, SEA HUNT etc., But this was a network show, and producers usually tried to do virtually everything right on the lot. Back then it was a way to maintain a certain standard of quality, as well as allow ease of production. (I imagine OSB might have occasionally gone to a location interior, but I haven't seen many examples of that (the trip they took to S. American villages for one episode excepted)

[@bmmaaate]

@@RSEFX I'm pretty sure the same house was used on two episodes in this first season. The one with the ghosts of children in the playroom and the one with an old seaman in the attic had exactly the same staircase and rooms layout.

According to IMDb, George was played by David Garcia, but he sure does look like a young Mark Lenard. However, there is another Star Trek connection with this episode - Beverly Washburn (the screaming little girl) went on to play Lieutenant Arlene Galway in the 1967 Trek episode "The Deadly Years".

[@stevepenland8413]

One Step Beyond stuck in my memory for years. I was only about six years old first time saw TV. The episode about woman who kept having nightmare about someone trapped in elevator in remote villa. Turns out was her ex-husband.

[@thurayya8905]

Sufi mystics would twirl for hours to bring on a trance state. In ballet, as you turn, you are supposed to fix on a point off to the side and use that to keep your balance. By turning her eyes upward and fixating on a lighter crystal instead, it is conceivable that she could enter a light trance state.

Originally, I thought that her dad (when she had grown up) was Richard Basehart. Lisa aged 21 is quite a dish. They had some lovely women on this series. Spinning around like that it's not surprising someone would go into a trance and imagine all sorts of things. Just like a whirling Dervish, and all they get up to. But who exactly was killed in 1947? Was it Lisa grandma or Lisa granddaughter? Anyone know? Interesting how Lisa's premonition spanned two generations. I guess that chandelier certainly had SOMEONE's name on it.
