the episode of The Walton's about a poltergeist?!!! Dh doesn't believe me but there was an episode where the youngest girl (don't remember her name but she had red hair!!) turns 13 and becomes the focus of a poltergeist. It was really scary and as a child watching it I was terrified!!! Please tell me I am not the only one who remembers this?!

From here

"The Changeling"

rc: the Godseys, Aimee, John Curtis

Elizabeth is about to have her 13th birthday, and is not really looking forward to growing up when a poltergeist appears in the Walton home, frightening everyone. Jason, on the other hand, is enjoying his new job as a radio host who gives advice to the lonely hearts of the district.

I remember it and remember someone saying in it - or after it? - that poltergeists can often happen to (visit? affect?) girls at puberty. I remember being scared by it too! And the Waltons was not the scariest programme about.

They made a documentary a couple of years ago when they brought the cast together again. They went back to the house where it was filmed and it showed how the actors lives turned out. Very interesting. Did anyone else see it ?
