Twisted Tales is an Australian television anthology and mystery drama which screened on the Nine Network from December 1996 to January 1998. Each episode was narrated by Bryan Brown, who also produced the follow-up series, Two Twisted, in 2006. Each episode of the series contains a twist ending.

Release

The series initially aired during December 1996 and January 1997, before going on hiatus. Later in 1997, a direct to video movie titled Still Twisted was made for the Australian and American markets. It featured two unreleased stories, and two which had previously aired as part of the television series. The Still Twisted stories aired as stand alone episodes when the show briefly returned to Australian television in early 1998.[1]
