Grave

Warning: Spoilers
Directed and written by Fred Dekker, "The Thing from the Grave" starts happy when centerfold model Stacy (Teri Hatcher) and photographer Devlin Cates (Kyle Secor) fall in love. It doesn't stay that way because her stalker ex Mitch Bruckner (Miguel Ferrer) kills him.

Crypt Keeper?

"Oops! Looks like you caught the old Crypt Keeper checking out one of his ghoulie magazines. Which gives you a little hint about tonight's dead-time story. It's all about the way some guys just die over a pretty girl. But don't worry kiddies, if it starts to reek a little of rotten romance I think the title of our nasty narrative makes no bones about where it's heart is really at. I call it "The Thing From the Grave."

"The Thing from the Grave" is from Tales from the Crypt #22 and was written by Al Feldstein and William M. Gaines and drawn by Al Feldstein.

This has one of the craziest images in the show, as the undead Devlin pulls Mitch into the grave and buries them both. It's also the first of three appearances by the sadly gone Ferrer would make on the show.
