Air Date: Saturday, September 12, 1992

Two teenage girls, Pam (Mia Kirshner) and Amy (Jennifer Gula), rummage around Pam's Mom's attic, stumbling on various pieces of Pam's family history, one thing being a riding uniform, initially worn by her late aunt Dora, who met a tragic end while riding. Said uniform, along with a standard Ouija board used by the girls, ends up possessing Pam with the persona of her aunt, and she reveals more about her fatal accident as she guides Amy through it in what is seemingly a different time in the past. And yes, there are hound dogs in it.

If I'm frank about this one, it is one of the series's most dry and dull stories. But that's also speaking for myself, as I have never been into things like riding, fox hunting, etc., which is most of the whole thing. On top of my disinterest, there's not much creepiness surrounding it, and it's easily one of the lightest entries. It has a niche audience of people who can relate a little more to the subject matter better than I can. Some people enjoy this one, but for me, this is about as dry as the show gets.

Final Rating: Brave
