Ghost Story

1972–1973 · 1 season

A creaky, atmospheric anthology of supernatural tales, each a self-contained chill with a lingering sense of unease.

Overview: Ghost Story is an American television anthology series that aired for one season on NBC from 1972 to 1973. Executive-produced by William Castle, it initially featured supernatural entities such as ghosts, vampires, and witches. By mid-season, low ratings led to a shift -- for the most part -- away from paranormal themes and a title change to Circle of Fear.
