Шаблон:Infobox television episode "Friday the 13th" is a 1954 American television play by Sumner Locke Elliott. It originally aired as an episode of The Philco Television Playhouse produced by Fred Coe and directed by Arthur Penn.[1]

Elliott originally wrote the script for television but then adapted it for radio and sent it back to Harry Dearthin Australia. He arranged a broadcast of the play on Australian radio in 1955 as an episode of Harry Dearth's Playhouse starring Gordon Glenwright and Charles Tingwell.[2]

The script was filmed again for television for NBC Matinee Theater in 1956.

Premise

According to a description of the radio adaptation it is "The tense and dramatic story of three women involved in a car accident-a skillful combination of suspense and human interest-it is, in fact, an omnibus play for it tells three stories in one."[3]

A longer description was provided by ABC Weekly which said "When the car containing Trilby Harris, Barbara Mack and Elaine Prescott skids off a wet road, crashes through a fence and careers over a cliff edge, one of the occupants is killed. But the husbands of the three women are not told which one. As they wait at the cliff top a single question drums in the mind of each man: “Was it my wife?”"[2]
