Darkroom was an American television thriller series that aired on ABC from November 27, 1981 to January 15, 1982. It was an anthology horror/thriller series, similar in style to Rod Serling's Night Gallery. Each 60 minute episode featured two or more stories of varying length with a new story and a new cast, but each episode wraparound was hosted by James Coburn.

Opening

The title sequence featured a dolly-in through the corridors of a house to a safe-lighted darkroom in a crawlspace under the stairs. As the voiceover reached the point with "no escape.. nowhere to turn" the camera turned toward various walls and closed doors.

Reruns

Sci Fi aired the show in the mid-90s, including the pilot episode.
