Warning: Spoilers
Gladys Cooper stars as Elva Keene, an elderly woman in a wheelchair who lives alone, though does have a visiting nurse come every day. One night, during a fierce storm, Elva receives two mysterious phone calls where no one speaks, but crackling static is heard. These calls persist, frightening her, but even worse is the solution: the calls are finally traced to a local cemetery, where a downed line lays over the grave of her long dead fiancée Brian... Scary and atmospheric episode has exemplary direction by horror film veteran Jacques Tourneur, and a fine performance from Miss Cooper that lead to a most chilling(and tragic) end.
