 '''Logo:''' On a black background, we see several 1940's-like buildings, all arranged haphazardly and titled at various angles. A much taller building emerges from the center, as the rest of them align to become upright. The tallest one's top flashes and a beacon's light emerges from it, as a box draws itself around the buildings. "BEACON" zooms out and flashes under the box, then dims.
+'''Variant:''' A short version exists on ''Castle''.
 '''FX/SFX:''' The tilting buildings and beacon lighting, all in animation that's pretty cool for the time.
-'''Music/Sounds:''' A rising synth note not unlike [[THX]]'s Deep Note, followed by a "shining" sound effect when the beacon lights, then a piano chord, then a choir. Sometimes, the opening theme of the movie is heard or even silence.

 '''Availability:''' Rare. It's known to exist on ''Princess Caraboo'', ''The Road to Wellville'' and ''The Baby-Sitter's Club'', among others. Strangely, a short version of this logo can be seen on the TV series ''Castle''.
