Catspaw (Star Trek: The Original Series)
"Catspaw" is an episode of the second season of Star Trek: The Original Series. It is episode #36, production #30, and was first broadcast October 27, 1967 and repeated on May 24, 1968. It was written by Robert Bloch, and directed by Joseph Pevney. Its gothic horror elements are perhaps best explained by the proximity of the episode's release to Halloween.
Writer Robert Bloch based his teleplay very loosely on his short story "Broomstick Ride".
