This is a vintage original revised final script from the classic 1980's crime drama/mystery thriller television series, ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS, from Season 1, Episode 17, which was entitled, The Creeper, written by Steve Bello and Stephen Kronish, in which a fashion designer thinks a serial killer has the keys to her apartment. The cast includes Karen Allen, Timothy Carhart, Clyde Clusatsu, Lori Butler, Danny De La Paz, Susan Peretz, and Sam Vlahos.
This is a revised final script initially dated November 21, 1985 with the last of four revisions dated December 2, 1985. The episode consists of two acts in 26 pages on eye-rest green stock which were 3-hole punched and originally bound with two metal grommets between a cardstock front and back cover. A prior owner has removed the original covers and had the script spiral-bound with a white comb binding, a clear front cover, and a black back cover. It is in very fine- condition with a light 1 in. diagonal crease on the bottom right corner of the last 9 pages. There are no missing pages, tears, stains, or other flaws.
Alfred Hitchcock Presents is an American television anthology series created, hosted, and produced by Alfred Hitchcock, and aired on CBS and NBC between 1955 and 1965. It features dramas, thrillers, and mysteries. Between 1962 and 1965, it was renamed The Alfred Hitchcock Hour. Hitchcock himself directed a relatively small number of episodes. By the time the show premiered on October 2, 1955, Hitchcock had been directing films for over three decades. Time magazine named Alfred Hitchcock Presents as one of "The 100 Best TV Shows of All Time." The Writers Guild of America ranked it #79 on their list of the 101 Best-Written TV Series, tying it with Monty Python's Flying Circus, Star Trek: The Next Generation and Upstairs, Downstairs. A series of literary anthologies with the running title Alfred Hitchcock Presents were issued to capitalize on the success of the television series. One volume, devoted to stories that censors would not allow to be adapted for broadcast, was entitled Alfred Hitchcock Presents: Stories They Wouldn't Let Me Do on TV — though eventually several of the stories collected therein were adapted.
