ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS
Hosted by: Alfred Hitchcock
Starring: Diana Dors, Brandon De Wilde
Story by: Robert Bloch

THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE: When a magician takes a simple-minded runaway under his wing., his sinister wife has an idea to manipulate the young man.

TRIVIA: Scheduled for episode 39 of season 7 of Alfred Hitchcock Presents, "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" never aired on the NBC Television network because the finale, by 1960s standards, was deemed "too gruesome" by sponsor Revlon. The following season, the show became The Alfred Hitchcock Hour, thus rendering the half-hour episode unusable.
