Things you bought at the fest.
« on: August 21, 2007, 11:56:08 PM »
I purchased the music cd for HODS and NODS and am just now looking through the little booklet inside. It has some interesting facts about where scenes were filmed and some that were deleted. One photo from HODS shows Maggie finding David hanging in her bedroom closet by rope (pretending to be dead) which was a deleted scene. Another piece of trivia I did not know was the HODS was  originally rated X in England due to the bloody vampire scenes. Is that amazing or what ::).  So I am off to listen to some music now.

I kept my purchases low this year. I picked up the complete DS music collection, and also grabbed DS:The First Year, DS: Resurrected, and Grayson Hall: A Hard Act To Follow.

Let's see, what did I buy?  I bought DS Resurected (I think that's the name) and DS Reunion from MPI, Casting Shadows and a Tarrytown 2007 shirt, complete w/Bramwell & Catherine on horseback at Lyndhurst on it, from Bobubas, an autographed photo from Betsy Durkin, and I think that's it.  I did however get a free copy of KLS's Charlie's Angel's book, who-hoo!  Couldn't believe it when he told us they were FREE!!   8)

Where was Bobubas selling those T-shirts, because I kept seeing people with them on, but never saw them on a table anywhere! BOO!

He doesn't sell them at a table, even when there's a dealor's room.  You pretty much have to pre-order them although he usually does bring a few extras to sell.

DS: The First Year Book
DS The Beginning DVD set 1
DS Tote Bag
DS pen
DS T-shirt (the one with the 1967 cast including Jason Maguire!)
Various 8x10s (3 Barnabas, 1 Angelique, 1 Charles Collins, 1 Melanie & Kendrick, 2 Josette)
Barnabas key chain
DS: The Legend Reborn
Angelique's Descent Audio Drama vol 1 & 2
1960 Barnabas action figure
1795 Barnabas action figure (won at auction)

If there had been fan dealers I probably would have bought more as they more often than not have out of print and original to the series run stuff for sale.

I bought the 2008 DS calendar, the Barnabas doll, a 2007 Tarrytown shirt and a 2005 Hollywood -- er -- Collinwood (LOL!) shirt from Bobubas, the Grayson Hall book, and I won Donna McKechnie's autographed book at the auction for $10 (I was the only bidder -- LOL!) -- woo hoo!  LOL! :D

I bought:

Buzz Hacketts fan fiction "Supreme Sacrifice: A Civil War Novel", which continues the Bramwell/Catherine Storyline from Parallel Time 1841.

Dark Shadows: The Legend Reborn CD

I had basically most of the rest that was for sale, except the DVD's.  Amazon has DS: The First Year for $29.99 pre-order, so I went there for it.

And I thank you for that Joey!  I was able to pre-sell 3 copies of my book and that allowed me to go see Curtains w/David Hyde Pierce on Tuesday night!  Great play btw, highly reccomend it!   ;)  Let me know what you think of the book Joey, I'd be very interested to hear.   8)  Interesting that Amazon has lowered it's price for Volume I to $29.99.  Guess they want to compete w/Walmart!

Well this was my first DS convention and I hadn't purchased any merchandise since the dying days of VHS so I got a few things

12 inch Barnabas figure (wondering why his cape is the color it is)
Dark Shadows volume 7
Dark Shadows volume 8 (missing first disc but MPI promised a replacement)
Dark Shadows memories signed by KLS
Fridiculousness (realing hoping for something Shakespearian of his to come out)
8 by 10 of KLS
8 by 10 of Lara

Well, I bought set #4 of the pre-Barnabas DVDs, but I wish I'd gotten set#3.  You see, I had won a set of Dark Shadows- The Beginning set #3 off eBay, but the package was lost in the mail and I got a refund by the seller.  So, if anyone has set #3 for sale, please send me a message!

Let's see...

Bought 8x10's of KLS, LP and BD... all with JF in Pics.
Audio Book Pt 1 & 2 Angelique's Descent
KLS's Dark Shadows Almanac and DS Memories.
MPI tank top and T-shirt and tote bag.
Won sweatshirt at auction
Fridiculousness DVD

Would have bought a few more items but did not have much more room in the luggage.

I bought four copies of the JF DVD for me and friends who could not make the fest, two copies of Angelique's descent on CD one for me and one for a friend who I know does not have the original novel, and also a pciture of Barnabas and Angelque, had Lara sign the latter and she said thanks for buying them--I already had Marie's book as an ebook so I just told her hello and that I enjoyed it.....that was nice Lara said that, I am always happy to support any endeavors she and JF are involved in.  You know, it looked to me that Lara's autograph line was the longest this year, I wonder if i was a lot of Barnabas/Angelique fans in attendance??

Finances were limited this year due to having to fly across the country, so...I bought...um...food?  They don't feed you any more on those flights!  ::) 

I PLANNED on buying another Bug & Critters book from Lara, but sort of ended up playing Seat Monitor while everybody else got autographs and stuff, so I guess I'll just order it from her. I did get to say Hi to Lara and Kathryn and Betsy and Marie!

And thanks to everybody for buying my buttons!!!!   ;D  I was able to pay for my taxi ride from Providence, R.I. to North Attleboro, MA during my Victoria Winters Genealogy Tour---and still have some $$ left over!!!!

**For the record...just in case you're wondering how it all turns out---Angelique wins.  [9366]

And if you want to know just how that's possible...then check out my DS fan fiction!
