About this episode

When two misbehaving kids are told they’ll be watched by a new babysitter for the evening, they assume it’s just another boring night at home. But when the babysitter arrives carrying an old book of babysitter stories, each tale grows darker than the last... These five classic babysitter horror stories explore familiar fears: being alone in someone else’s house, strange noises after bedtime, and the unsettling feeling that someone is watching. Dim the lights, lock the doors, and listen carefully.
