Twilight Zone Scripts & Stories

Santa Monica CA: Streamline Pictures. Near Fine. 1996. First Trade Edition. Softcover. [nice clean copy, virtually as-new with just a touch of handling wear and a tiny dent in the bottom edge of the front cover]. Trade PB Story and script material by one of the most important contributing writers of the original "Twilight Zone" TV series. Johnson had either story or teleplay credits on eight TZ episodes -- including several regarded as among the show's all-time classics -- all of which are represented in this volume by either the original story or the teleplay (if written by Johnson; teleplays written by Rod Serling and others are not included, either for copyright reasons or because the point of this volume is to present only Johnson's writings). Also included is an introduction by Johnson in which he writes about his early career as a TV writer, with a special focus on how he came to write for "The Twilight Zone." Contents: "All of Us Are Dying" (story only); "Execution" (story); "A Penny for Your Thoughts" (story and teleplay); "The Prime Mover" (story); "Nothing in the Dark" (story and teleplay); "A Game of Pool" (teleplay); "Kick-the-Can" (story and teleplay); "Ninety Years Without Slumbering" (story). .
