IN THIS EPISODE: Two episodes of NIGHTFALL! Later it’s an episode from July 25, 1980 called “Hands Off” – in which a scientist invents a liquid that makes people and animals violently hostile, but then spills some of it on his own hand! The episode was so popular upon its first airing that WPBH-FM rebroadcast the episode in December a year later. But first up, from July 04, 1980 it’s “Love and the Lonely One” where a medical student receives a strange invitation from the cadaver in his anatomy class! This is actually the first show of the Nightfall series. Henry Ramer is the host with a very distinctive voice, using the name "Larry Kranst."
