Can you guess which actors played these popular Twilight Zone characters?

You know their characters, but do you know their real names?

 CBS Television Distribution

Watching anthologies is cool because there's a different story being told in each episode. Yet, this means that, although some familiar faces are seen throughout the series, actors never play the same characters. They're always a different person, and the characters' stories never relate to the previous one.

The Twilight Zone is one of the most popular anthologies, especially when you need a good scare. With so many classic episodes, can you guess which actors played these popular characters?

Good luck!

Regarding #1. The listing in TV Guide stated the actress who played the role didn’t want to be identified. I’m sure anyone who read this became even more curious about the episode.

7/10. I doubt that many people got the first question right. One would have to be a real expert of the Twilight Zone in order to know that little bit of trivia.

I did it. I remember they dubbed in another actress' voice instead of Douglas'.

I got it right but it was just a lucky guess.

Lucky you! Numbers 6 and 8 were also extremely hard and for most people depended on some luck in order to get it right.

Here I was flying high with a good score after that Mayberry quiz, quickly deflated by a harder Twilight Zone quiz.

Technically, Collin Wilcox AND Pamela Austin BOTH played Marilyn! Collin was pre-surgery and Pamela was post-surgery!
Aw, hadn't thought of that angle. "Who played Marilyn pre-surgery" or "Both" choice WOULD have been better
