Brian, the article describes each as "a selection of scenes from the most popular episodes" of the story.

I love the covers.

Quentin to Charity:  "Our destinies are guided by a strange wheel of fortune; don't you remember Magda telling you that?"
No, I don't.  The cards in Charity's reading were Strength, The Moon, The Lovers, The Hanged Man and The Tower of Destruction (the last 3 inverted).  No Wheel of Fortune.

Regardless, I thought Magda's interpretation wasn't bad for a DS reading.  At least Gordon Russell made the effort to look up the meanings of individual cards (reversed or not) and to consider their locations in the spread and how they related to the surrounding cards.

As for the Shadows of the Night dream, I cannot stand it.  I find it pedestrian and sappy.  But that's me, and I'm glad Sally loves it.

And you can see the wolf squatting behind Quentin's chair as the stuntman awaits his cue.  Ugh.

Are those red roses by the hand?

Big mums, I think.  They stood out for me too.  Would they die if Barnabas were there?  And is that why they usually didn't have flowers at the Old House?

Nancy's ... blond brows are shining through!

I hear you, Taeylor!  And Grayson's natural color shows through in the shock of hair that's combed over her Magda wig.  I agree about the sloppy transformation FX, too.

And there’s wolfie on the rock again, doing his imitation of the White Rock mermaid

And its WolfieQ in the woods again, waiting to strike, curled up on the rock like the White Rock soda mermaid.

Pansity, I didn't follow you the first time, but now that you've added soda... I think I get it now.  Maybe.  She's not a mermaid (she has wings, so, a fairy?), but I definitely see the similarity in her pose as she looks down from the rock.  Anyway, is this icon the one in your simile?-- http://activerain.com/blogsview/1098018/the-whiterock-beverage-company-history-in-waukesha-county-

The policeman who was close to becoming werewolf food (I'm still giggling over Taeylor's "bed food") was played by John Miranda.  He's not credited in too many places for it (this ep has no closing credits), and if he is his name is usually spelled wrong, but I'm positive he's the same actor who has an IMDb page of multiple guest roles.  There's a photo of him on this webpage (top right image) when he had a starring role playing Sweeney Todd the year after he got his first TV job on DS (and there's no mistaking that it's the same nose): Bloodthirsty Butchers (1970)

Pansity's post was moved and thank you so much for the heads up, EmeraldRose. 

Yay, we get evidence of Minerva's ghost.  I like that they never explain if what Judith saw the day before was really there or in her mind.  That's why I adore 1963's The Haunting.

I like Taeylor's comment that the knife through the Bible was cutting edge for the time and place.  So Minerva chose Isaiah ("The righteous perish; no man taketh it to heart, none considering that the righteous are taken away but the evil is still to come") and my mind immediately went to Billy Joel's "Only the Good Die Young"-- sung to the appropriately named Virginia.  Sorry, I digress.

Was that a drawing of Mrs. Trask #1?  It looks more like #2 to me.

I cannot come up with an explanation for Magda finding out about the marriage.  She's been babysitting Evan, and Quentin hasn't left Collinwood since Judith told him the news.  The day before, she had to retrieve the hand and have it at the cave near dusk, so I'm not sure there was time for the gossip to reach her even if she was in town.  And the Collins servants must know to avoid the Old House.  I'm thinking it's a plot hole.

Quentin couldn't remember what you're supposed to say to a bride, but Magda got it right, immediately offering her best wishes.  Edith must be so pleased that somebody paid attention to her etiquette lessons.

OTOH, since the moon doesn't always rise as soon as the sun sets, I suppose Quentin got it right that Barnabas could have been present for his transformation.  It's weird, but possible.  And Barn would literally have to fly to be there in time.

Did David run into the door.  IT looked as if he did and there was loud thump!

LOL  The only thing my daughter and I agreed on was that the door got stuck.  I thought he snapped his head back while using force to open it and she said he expected it to open sooner and ran into it.  So no meeting of the minds on it here.

Hmm, anyone remember if they wore mourning when Quentin was in the coffin?

From #722:

The Robservations are good for checking details, coupled with the ep guide of choice.

"Dear Gregory"-- now there's an oxymoron!

Barnabas to Evan:  "I do not desire to be at your mercy."
Of course not, because then Barnabas would feel what his victims have always felt.

Gregory (supposedly quoting Leviticus):  "Do as your conscience guides and you will not offend."
I'm assuming that it refers to offending God, but considering that Gregory seems to have NO conscience, it's easy to see why he's oblivious to his own offensiveness.

I am not particularly fond of the dress Joan is wearing.  It isn't flattering at all, in my opinion, of course!

I'm thinking it's probably the world's ugliest wedding dress!

what does Judith see but Minerva standing by the French windows. [spoiler]I’d forgotten the gaslighting started right away.[/spoiler]

I think it hasn't.  Maybe Minerva's ghost is stirred up about the marriage, or Judith's guilt made her imagine the incident?  Hmm, I think the former sounds cooler.

I'm doubting that they could come up with a dummy that had HAA's features.  The mouth and good eye are just like his, and that left eyeball looks real.  I think that was HAA on the ground, but I have no idea when it was filmed.

And btw, I'm pretty sure KLS has said that a painted ping ball (I'm guessing it was cut in half) and putty were used for her dangling eye effect.

Barnabas to Magda:  "I'm afraid of [the hand], afraid it will change Quentin in some way that will affect Chris Jennings in the present."
Wouldn't the effect on Chris Jennings occur in the future?  I'm so confused!

Are they in Worthington Hall?

Yes.  Charity's room is really in the house by the sea on the Collinwood estate, but Gregory sometimes refers to it as Worthington Hall even though the original burned down.

How did Evan know where Barnabas's coffin was? I don't think he followed the hand, because it disappeared again after curing Charity and then reappeared again in the cave. This really baffles me!  

Barnabas summoned Charity to come to the cave under Widow's Hill.  But after the hand went on a field trip to cure her and she was once again the pious Charity, Evan advised her that she was in danger of being victimized again by Barnabas and asked her to tell him what else she remembered besides the marks on her neck.  Apparently she then told him what she knew of Barnabas' hiding place.

Happy Birthday, Diabolos!
