You might expect to find Santa Claus coming down your chimney on December 24th, but you may not foresee a mysterious stranger crashing your Christmas Eve party with malevolent intentions. That's exactly what happens to an Alaska precinct when they're visited by an enigmatic man who seems to know too much about his "new friends" on the next episode of The Twilight Zone, titled "The Traveler."

Directed by Ana Lily Amirpour (A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, The Bad Batch), written by Glen Morgan, and starring Greg Kinnear, Steven Yeun, and Marika Sila, the next episode of the new Twilight Zone will be released on CBS All Access on Thursday, April 18th.

"Witness the trailer for the upcoming episode of The Twilight Zone, "A Traveler" starring Greg Kinnear and Steven Yeun and hosted by Academy Award® winner Jordan Peele, streaming on April 18, exclusively on CBS All Access.

On Christmas Eve in Iglaak, Alaska, a mysterious traveler (Steven Yeun) wishes to be pardoned by Captain Lane Pendleton (Greg Kinnear)."
