Judgement Day
Judgement Day opens with a flashback to a large old house. A wealthy couple are dressed up to go out for the evening. Their little girl, Annabel, keeps crying out that she doesn't want them to go. She is finally left with the housekeeper, Mrs. Foster. The girl throws her supper plate onto the floor in a trantrum. The housekeeper scolds her and sends her to bed, threatening to tell her parents when they come home. The girls says "I hate you" and storms off. The housekeeper sits down to watch 'Casebook' on T.V. Someone goes into the kitchen, then enters the sitting room plunging a knife into the housekeeper.
Later the parents return home in good spirits. However, the woman immediately senses that something is wrong. They call out for Mrs. Foster, the housekeeper. They finally discovered Mrs. Foster's body. The mother rushes to her daughter's bedroom fearing something may have happened to her too. Annabel is fast asleep but one of her golliwog toys is clasping the bloodstained knife
