On October 31st 1992, the BBC aired what was billed as a live visit to a supposedly haunted house.
It involved BBC reporters performing an on-air investigation of a house in Northolt, Greater London at which poltergeist activity was taking place.
The 90 minute drama gave me nightmares for about ten years. I don't know whether it messsed anyone else up as badly but it is certainly one of the pivotal moments in my early years.
The show caused such as fuss that the BBC never aired it again.
For those of you who remember this momentous piece of television Rejoice!
