Lights Out Month Day 5: "Poltergeist"

Today's episode of Lights Out is easily one of Arch Oboler's most gruesome scripts. "Poltergeist" from October 20, 1942 is perhaps the most disproportionate of all cases of retributive justice heard on the series - and there's quite a few. A girl accidentally dances on a grave. As consequence, she and her friends must die. Arguably the most nihilistic episode of the series.
