“I am reminded of an old Twilight Zone episode.”
It was called “The Hunt” and the dog’s name was Rip - one of Rod Serling’s best.
This was in one of Rod Serling’s short story collections (I think):
Man kills his wife but then feels guilty.
At a seance she speaks to him, says she’s in heaven, tells him she forgives him and that she looks forward to seeing him again. She then pleads for him to bring her dog with him when he comes. He kills the dog and commits suicide. In the final scene the dog comes running up to her all excited. He says “I’m glad I can be with you again forever here in heaven.” She says, “Oh wait, you’re a murderer, remember? You go to the other place.”
Thank YOU!!! I'm going to see if I can't look that up on Netflix tonight when I get home. I remembered the essense of that one, that program really touched my heart ... and I never had an idea what the title was. Thank you a thousand times ...
