Dark Shadows

Dark, scary, frightning nights
Angelique casts her spells
Red blood, Barnabas the vampire drinks
Knowledge of the

Supernatural can be a good thing
Here in Collinsport, strange things happens
Any given night, vampires, ghosts, werewolves may appear
Daytime is when things are normal
Oh how you dread the night!
Widow's Hill is where women took their lives because the
Sailors they loved died at sea!

I am sure all of you remember the TV Show Dark Shadows. I just loved Barnabas and he was my favorite vampire. He didn't want to be evil. He wanted to be normal and with the help of Dr. Julia Hoffman, he was. Angelique, the beautiful witch was in love with Barnabas and gave him the vampire curse. We all know that Barnabas loved her all along but he wouldn't admit it even to himself. He did tell her right after she was shot by Lamar Trask, back in the past. {Dark Shadows was always going back into the past!} Angelique died before she heard the words that she had waited so long to hear. Baranabas first true love was Josette.

Victoria Winters was ready Elizabeth Stoddard's daughter but they never revealed that but we know that was the reason Elizabeth bought her to Collinwood. She is also the one who sent the checks to the Orphanage for Victoria. Sweet Victoria. She was clueless. She was also someone that Barnabas loved.

Quentin the ghost. He later was in the show back in one of the past series and later was reincarnated in human form. He sure was a handsome man. I really loved the love scenes of him and Beth, the maid.

Roger Collins was a handsome older man who had a orny son named David but he grew up into a well behaved youg man even though he tampered with his father's car and tried to kill him. Elizabeth Stoddard was a beautiful lady and Mistress of Collinwood.

Carolyn Stoddard, Elizabeth's daughter had a teribble time keeping boyfriends. Joe was the love of her life but she lost him to Maggie Evans, a sweet pretty young woman who became one of Barnabas's victims because she resembled Josette.

Angelique was my favorite and I always wanted her to be with Barnabas. I always thought witches were old, ugly, had green faces, warts and wore always homely black clothes. Oh! Angelique didn't have a cat, either.

I loved Dark Shadows and this is how I learned about the supernatural. This seems like a fairy tale compared to the horror movies that they show now. Dark Shadows was also the first soap I ever watched. Dark Shadows got me through Junior High. I still watch the shows on video cassette and still love the show. I really like the Dark Shadows movies especially the one with Quentin, Angelique and Tracy{Kate Jackson}. I hope you, too have fond memories of the show. There are a million things I can say about the show but this is all I can think of. Dark Shadows is a show that will never die.
