About Mike Hensel
Expertise
I will try and answer all questions dealing with television...show names, plots, actors, roles, networks, etc...mostly US shows, tho I'll tackle anything...I lean heavily into past, more so than current, television...and, my knowledge dealing with "reality" shows is limited, due to the fact that I really can't stand the genre (my apologies to all the "Reality" fans out there...)

Experience
Years of watching and cataloging television shows

Education/Credentials
High School Graduate

Subject: A Scifi or Horror series back in the 1970's

Question
All I can remember is that the show started out showing empty rides in an amusement park, and someone whistling an Erie tune
along with a heartbeat. Thats It!

Answer
Javal, it was on slightly earlier than what you remember...

The show was, "Journey to the Unknown", a show produced in England by a former aide of Alfred Hitchcock...

It ran in the US from September 26, 1968 to January 30, 1969 on the ABC Television Network...you may have seen a syndicated version if you really saw it in the 70's...

very psychological horror stuff...and that haunting whistling tune on the opening...

Here's a YouTube link to the beginning of one of the episodes...

Hope this answers your query !!!

Thanks for a Great Question !!!
Take Care,
Mike
