The Adventures Of Timothy Pilgrim?
Edited by jormis29 Working on cleaning up List Of Shows That Need Summary
There was a TV show I used to watch when i was a kid, sometime in the 70's or 80's on TV in Canada, but it could have been a show from the USA. It followed a young boy who found this old travel trunk, it might have been in an old train station, or store or house. He found that it had a false bottom, and under that false bottom where a set of stairs that impossibly went down into a dark kind of basement/hallway place and go up other sets of stairs to come out in the same trunk but in a different time and even place that the trunk had been in the past. So the trunk acts as a magic time travel gateway. I would love to know the name of the show and even see if I could locate it again.
