The first season of "Adventures of Superman" remains one of the great TV series of this or any other era. (Why it hasn't been revived as a period piece is beyond my understanding.) It's dark, morbid, and just plain nasty -- not kiddie fare at all. "Mystery in Wax" follows the equally unwholesome "The Stolen Costume". Both are classics.
It appears that Madame Selena (Myra McKinney) has a true paranormal gift -- she can channel the yet-to-be-born Bebe Glazer (Harriet Sansom Harris)! When she goes nuts, she perfectly (and I mean perfectly) renders Bebe's voice, mannerisms, body movement, etc. This is a coincidence, of course, but you have to see it to believe it. It's uncanny.
If you've never seen the early B&W episodes, this is as good an episode to start with as any. Unreservedly recommended.
