Putting together a playlist for the weekend, please give me your best suggestions. Trying to get at least one episode from the five OG series.

No, I will not be considering the one where Beverley bones a ghost.

    TOS: Catspaw. No question there. Catspaw is basically the Star Trek Halloween Special.

    TNG: Night Terrors

    DS9 is a difficult one because I can’t think of a real episode that would fit, but maybe Hard Time just because of the horrific situation O’Brien is put in?

    Voyager: Nowhere near my favorite episode, but The Haunting of Deck 12 seems like the best option.

    Enterprise: Don’t have a good suggestion for you there. Enterprise episodes slip out of my memory quickly. Sorry, Enterprise fans.

    Edit: I missed this part-

    No, I will not be considering the one where Beverley bones a ghost.

    What if I told you that the ghost also boned her grandma? And Beverly was into the idea?

      Empok Nor in season 5 is a good candidate, it has some horror vibes.

        DS9 you could also do Whispers. It’s the one where OBrien gets replaced by a replicant but he thinks everyone else is replaced. Nothing like a good body snatcher episode.

        Waltz is also a good one. Dukat and Sisko alone with Dukat slowly going insane.

    For TNG I’d suggest Identity Crisis. That one freaked me out more than any Trek I can recall.
