"If She Dies" is the first segment of the fifth episode of the first season (1985–86) from the television series The Twilight Zone. The teleplay, written by David Bennett Carren, was based on a 1982 story originally written by Carren for the Twisted Tales comic book.
After a recently widowed father's only daughter is put into a coma, he is guided by the apparition of another girl to buy an old wooden bed from an orphanage sale. He buys the bed and sets it up in his daughter's room without knowing why.
That evening, he finds that the bed is haunted by the girl, who asks him to find "Toby" for her. Returning to the orphanage the next day, he learns that the girl died of tuberculosis while sleeping in the bed, and that Toby is her teddy bear.
After retrieving the teddy bear, the father takes his daughter from the hospital where she resides and places her in the bed; she wakes up, but asks for Toby before her father can explain anything.
