This is my third favorite episode of the show, it really is something really different because this is the kind of episode that not totally scary but actually really positive and strangely romantic. This was based on an urban legend and I feel this episode really did a good job of retelling it.
I really like the sense of mystery and a bit of spookiness, it's suspenseful in a different way because you sort of have an idea what to expect but your not entirely sure about the result. Also the story is actually really simple when you think about it, it just doesn't seem that way at first; but there are some suttle hints in places it's just easy to overlook them.
The two lead guys are solid, I like the back and forth between them; in a way this episode could almost be a Hardy Boys adventure as the dynamic between the two and there personas sort of remind me of Frank and Joe, let alone the fact both are investigating, Katie Griffin is just great as Dede, I remember as a kid I actually had a crush on this actress, she is just fraking hot. And of course on further note this actress was the voice of Sailor Mars for the anime TV show "Sailor Moon" which is awesome since I'm a fan of that show and Mars is my favorite character. Anyway she's sort of the mysterious beauty archetype where she some ordinary girl that is tagging along and helping the investigation but whether you suspect it or not there really is something more to her.
Just like the old song "Still of the Night" this tale to me is timeless.
