A friend's memory: Can you I.D. this show?

S

Stanislav

A friend related to me his vague childhood memory of something on TV:

Around 1972 I saw on TV as a rerun (had to be it was black/white picture) some show that was similar to the One step beyond, Way out, Outer limits, Twilight zone shows of the 60's. I forget what the name was but I recall in the opening credits it would say "fun and games" very sinister like. I recall seeing 2 episodes, 1 was with this fog that a voice inside was telling folks not to come inside, the other had to do with an army war scene. I was 7 when I saw this so exact details are sketchy but I was totally into monsters and horror movies and was transfixed with what I saw, and I never got to see the other episodes for whatever reason.​

Doesn't ring an obvious bell with me -- anyone recall a program of this genre that had a sinisterly-intoned "fun and games" as part of the intro?

I'll add that this guy is a lifelong Chicago boy, which I mention in case this is actually a local show.
 
I'm the same age as your friend and was also a huge horror fan back then (and still am today), Stanislav, but it doesn't ring a bell. It doesn't sound like it could be "Thriller" or "Science Fiction Theatre". "Night Gallery" and "Ghost Story/Circle of Fear" weren't in reruns yet, too. Could it have been a British program?
