Page "Agnes Moorehead" Paragraph 12

Sorry, Wrong Number also inspired writers of the CBS television series The Twilight Zone to script an episode with Moorehead in mind.

In " The Invaders " ( broadcast 27 January 1961 ) Moorehead played a woman whose isolated farm is plagued by mysterious intruders.

In " Sorry, Wrong Number " Moorehead offered a famed, bravura performance using only her voice, and for " The Invaders " she was offered a script where she had no dialogue at all.

Alongside Bette Davis, Olivia De Havilland, Mary Astor and Joseph Cotten, she starred in Hush … Hush, Sweet Charlotte ( 1964 ) as the maid, Velma, a role for which she was nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Academy Award.
