1961 One Step Beyond on The Sacred Mushroom
A clip from a 1961 episode of One Step Beyond on sacred mushrooms and ESP. Dr. Andrija Puharich, author of the book The Sacred Mushroom, appears, as well as others involved in related research at the time.
This is one of the weirdest things I've ever seen. There's something really freaky about it--like it's been filmed contemporarily and made to look vintage. (NOT implying that is the case, of course! Just trying to describe the feeling I get.) Maybe they used prehistoric videotape for it and it translates badly digitally? It seems like it would be something the characters on "Lost" would watch in the 2nd season.

What the...? We've been watching this series on DVD, and I thought they were all fiction episodes. Weird!
