From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
Ed Appel was the chief processing engineer of the
mining colony on
Janus VI. When a
mysterious creature began killing miners, Appel was the only one to see it and live. He only got a glimpse of it, describing it as "shaggy", and even shot it, though his less effective
phaser type-1 meant the creature escaped unharmed. (
TOS: "
The Devil in the Dark")
- Appel was played by Brad Weston.
