This is the second of Charles Aidman's two appearances in the original Twilight Zone. Mr. Aidman later went on to narrate the first two seasons of the 80's version of the series. (edit) The music was so important to this episode that the writer of the score was credited above the director (the only episode to do so) (edit) Included on Volume 29 of Image-Entertainment's DVD collection. (edit) This episode is based on the short story "Little Girl Lost" by Richard Matheson. The story was first published in Amazing Stories (November 1953). (edit)

Chris: What is it?
Bill: The opening.
Ruth: To what?
Bill: I think... to another dimension. (edit) (Closing Narration)
Narrator: The other half where? The fourth dimension? The fifth? Perhaps. They never found the answer. Despite a battery of research physicists equipped with every device known to man, electronic and otherwise, no result was ever achieved, except perhaps a little more respect for and uncertainty about the mechanisms of the Twilight Zone. (edit) (Opening Narration)
Narrator: Missing: one frightened little girl. Name: Bettina Miller. Description: six years of age, average height and build, light brown hair, quite pretty. Last seen being tucked into bed by her mother a few hours ago. Last heard--aye, there's the rub, as Hamlet put it. For Bettina Miller can be heard quite clearly, despite the rather curious fact that she can't be seen at all. Present location? Let's say for the moment--in the Twilight Zone. (edit)

When the camera angle changes just before Bill puts his hand through the wall for the second time, Ruth's hand instantly moves from one side of her face to the other. (edit) During the opening narration, the wall behind Rod Serling has the "fourth dimension" boundary lines drawn on it already. (edit) As the camera pans up on Rod Serling for the opening narration, he can be seen glancing to his left for a second to receive his cue to start talking. (edit)
