The dispirited residents of a nursing home are urged by one of their number to believe that they can recapture their youth by playing a children's game.

Note: Steven Spielberg remade this as Segment II of Twilight Zone: The Movie, showing the nursing-home residents being offered a second chance at youth by their new arrival, Mr. Bloom (Scatman Crothers).

As family and friends sit through the funeral of Jeff Myrtlebank, they are in for a rude awakening when he sits up from his coffin, demanding to know what's going on. They then begin to fear Jeff came back to life, possessed by a demon and soon bow to his will for fear of what might happen to their crops and loved ones.
