Current Talk '24 I / Re: Happy 50th Anniversary, Night of Dark Shadows
« on: May 29, 2023, 07:06:00 PM »I was reading an article from Tiger Beat circa 1971 that someone had scanned. Among the DS blurbs was a notation that Jonathan Frid had visited Lyndhurst during the filming of Night of Dark Shadows. I realize that you must consider the source of the information. After all, Tiger Beat wasn't exactly The Washington Post. But it's certainly intriguing. MB, had you ever heard this before? It would be quite amazing if any photos of this ever surface.
Hmmm, I must have missed that issue because I never saw that blurb. And while Tiger Beat wasn't as DS-connected as 16 Magazine was, the info they published about DS was generally reliable. But in this case I have to wonder. It seems like if Frid had visited Lyndhurst during the filming of NoDS, wouldn't we have heard about it from more than that one source? For example, given his extensive research on the production of NoDS, doesn't it certainly seem likely that Darren Gross might have mentioned it in at least one of the numerous things he's written about NoDS or as part of one of his Fest presentations? Or that one of the NoDS actors might have shared an anecdote about the day Frid visited the production? But who knows?
