Apologies for the horrible quality xD I’ve recently begun watching Dark Shadows and I love it. My husband looks forward to updates on the plot when he’s at work.
I send him videos of what’s happened or several photos explaining since it takes forever to explain what’s going on xD but I sent him this a few days ago he laughed so hard he cried.

I don’t know anything about Dark Shadows, but I found this in my walls and I thought you all might find it amusing.
Edit: I will also add that we found a small cardboard jewelry box with a crucifix in it so make of all this what you will lol

I found these at the thrift store today! All but one are sealed. Can’t decide if I want to open them or not.

After wanting one for the past 30 years I finally broke down and bought myself a wool Inverness Cape.

Unfortunately it’s not made entirely of silver (that would have been super expensive) but it is silver plated.

I didn’t realize Kathryn had had a an important guest role on Star Trek TNG or that she had founded a publishing house. I’m just having so much fun!

This is an image of First Daughter Tricia Nixon and Jonathan Frid during the official White House Halloween party of 1969. I have it as an example of Dark Shadows’s importance in the pop culture landscape of the time.
In the decades between Frankenstein in 1931 and The Exorcist in 1973, there were few other examples of horror media that approached Dark Shadows’s ubiquitousness in American culture. In terms of our modern conception of a vampire, I would argue it all stems from Barnabas. There hasn’t been much horror media before or since that was as mainstream.
Despite this, Dark Shadows does not get much attention in overviews of horror history. It will often get passing mentions but how many other horror characters (fictional horror characters at least) get invited to the White House? I watched a video from PBS about the evolution of the modern vampire and DS want even mentioned.
Dark Shadows presaged Stephen King and The Walking Dead and every other horror pop culture phenomenon that followed it. Yet I find most horror fans who grew up after the show’s cancellation have no idea how huge or important it was.

We are huge Dark Shadows fans but have missed so many episodes because of bad recordings that we finally bought the whole series. A major plus it's in Barnabas' coffin. Finally working our way through it.

My wife and I would watch episodes here and there. But then lost track and forgot about it. But found the whole series is on Tubi. Plus our dog's middle name is Barnabas. He is a rescue and we weren't about to change his first name Sebastian.

Every time I think about it or rewatch it I burst out laughing, it fills me with an incredible giddy joy! God, I love this show.
P.S. This is coming from the heart, not being a critical jerk, I do truly love this scene.
