In reference to
Rod Serling, the creator and creepy narrator of the original Twilight Zone
TV episodes from the '60s when an occurance or an event is so bizarre that it's similar to something that might happen in one of the episodes. Less shock and fright but more paranormal, spooky, that skin crawling feeling you
get when your extremely piss-drunk uncle accidentally gets into
bed with you.
"Your uncle climbed into bed with me last night."
" What? I
beat him to
death years ago when he tried to molest me... in that bed."
"A ghost?!
OMG! How rodserlingesque! 'Cuz he sure seemed real to me when he... uh... he um... never mind."
