I found this on Amazon, it's a review of the first 210 episodes.
Dark Shadows Episode Guide Volume 1 by Hanley Jennings Peterson
http://www.amazon.com/Dark-Shadows-Episode-Guide-1/dp/132986798X/ref=sr_1_3?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1464966915&sr=1-3&keywords=dark+shadows+episodes
From Amazon: The daytime Gothic drama Dark Shadows was truly unique and well deserving of its cult status. This unofficial guide provides episode recaps, as well as commentary, on the questionable, bizarre or downright silly things that characters say and do that just can't be ignored. This volume covers the first 210 episodes that includes an ex-con out for vengeance, a car accident, a murder mystery, a supernatural creature and a blackmail scheme. So, pour a drink (or two) and delve into the uniquely peculiar world of Collinsport, Maine.

Hanley Jennings Peterson sounds like a pen name. Maybe even someone we know? At any event, there are two volumes available. Has anyone seen a copy?

Interesting. It reads like somebody's blog posts about the show. Might be at least somewhat diverting as an e-book if you're on a long trip and desperate for entertainment. I'm not sure just who the intended audience is.
You can use Amazon's "look inside" feature to read the early entries. I wasn't impressed.

At least this is an actual book. There was another listing for an episode guide published by the Dark Shadows Fan Club, whoever they may be. $24.99 for photocopies! [ghost_angry]

They strikes me as something akin to the concordances of old, except with impish comments thrown in. And there's nothing wrong with that. The parts that I've skimmed struck me as very much like the comments about the eps that can be found here as well as many other DS sites on the Internet, the only difference being the author is trying to make some money off his/her(or maybe even their) comments.

Apparently there's a new volume:
Dark Shadows Episode Guide Volume 4 (http://www.lulu.com/shop/hanley-jennings-peterson/dark-shadows-episode-guide-volume-4/paperback/product-22851675.html)
It's funny how I've received a Google alert for Volume 4 but never for the other three...
