What happens

Dark Night of the Scarecrow is a 1981 American made-for-television supernatural slasher film directed by veteran novelist Frank De Felitta from a script by J.D. Feigelson. Feigelson's intent had been to make an independent feature, but his script was bought by CBS for television; despite this, only minor changes were made to the original teleplay.
