Boris Karloff's Thriller/ The Hungry Glass

There was a TV series from 1960-62 called Boris Karloff's Thriller.

It ran for two years and was an hour long show.

Many of the episodes were based on supernatural themes. These were the best.

There was one that starred William Shatner called The Hungry Glass.

He and his wife bought an old home by the sea which was supposed to be haunted.

Formerly there was an old sea captain's wife that enjoyed looking at herself in mirrors all over the house. Even when she was an old hag she looked young in her mirrors. One time she was looking at herself in the window glass and fell to her death.

The couple began seeing strange things around the house and thet finally find the mirrors in the attic. While the husband is talking to a friend downstairs his wife is looking at herself in the mirrors and the old hag pulls her into the mirror.
The husband goes to help and tries to crack the mirror but unfortunately he in actuality kills his wife.

This was one of the very best episodes of the entire series.

This series has not yet been reissued by CBS, but I was able to purchase the entire series for $75.oo in a 8.5 to 9 grade out of 10 for the picture.

I don't know if it is still available. It seems that all of these stores that sell reissues have been shut down due to copywrite infrindgement. But check the net. There is all kinds of stuff out there.
