Name That Trauma :: Reader Jeanette W. on a Super Stretch Arm

Hi there,

This may be a long shot but can anyone help me track down this film? I remember watching it when I still lived at home with the parents so it is definitely pre-1976. I can't remember how old I was, probably around 12 or 13 so could be about 1969 or ‘70.

Anyway, the one bit that I remember vividly is an oldish lady lying in a bed and this person goes into her room. They speak for a while then the lady says she will turn the light off or on, not really sure, but her arm just stretches out towards the light switch on the other side of the room and just keeps on going and going until her hand reaches the switch.

Now it doesn't sound so bad but when I watched it, I remember covering my eyes because it looked so creepy. Tame by today's standards but scared the hell out of me at my tender years.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Jeanette
