Not sure where you are going with this, but…the most “infamous” twist from the Twilight Zone is the “To Serve Man” episode where aliens came to “serve” man – everyone thought that meant help mankind – they got rid of hunger, disease, war, etc. Â At the end, we find out “To Serve Man” is the name of a cookbook and the aliens were really there to get some ingredients (a.k.a. humans) for their food. It’s been parodied a bunch – to include, my favorite, on “The Simpsons.”
Don’t see how that’s an OUAT spoiler though…
Twilight zone has so many great twists. I like the episode “After Hours” where you find out at the end the girl in question is actually a mannequin. Or the one with the clown and the ballerina and the other characters stuck in some kind of big metal thing and you find out at the end they’re toys in a donation bin. Great ep!

We’ll I remember one that was from the later version of the show. It had Jessica Simpson as a baby sitter to this girl who had a lot of dolls. The dolls were alive apparently and start to attack the baby sitter…. Only for her to find out the dolls weren’t trying to hurt her. They were trying to WARN her. The girl apparently would turn all her sitters into dolls. Hence why she had so many. Plot twist indeed.

I remember one similar to this, and it had a sequel in the 2000-ish version of Twilight Zone. It was about a boy who controlled the world, or town, because he could read minds and if anyone thought or did anything he didn’t like, he could make them vanish into a some eternal cornfield. In the later version, he has grown up and has a daughter and he makes the entire population disappear into the cornfield after they get sick of his (bleep). But ita okay because the daughter brought them all back. The guy who played the grown up boy was the actual kid all grown up and his daughter was his daughter in real life so that was cool

it’s a shame how many people my age (25} and younger have never seen any of the original Twilight zones, it’s a series that really holds up well even to this day and the plot twists are just great at the end.
and not even just the Twilight Zone there’s dozens of older anthology series that are just wonderful such as Amazing Stories, Night Gallery, One Step Beyond, Outer Limits, etc.
