I have an online buddy who's looking to interview the readers & writers of Dark Shadows fan fiction for a blog at the Collinsport Historical Society. She doesn't have an account here, so I'm passing along her message!  [easter_smiley]
If anyone's interested, please contact her at dsfanfic@gmail.com
Thanks!

Somehow it looks like they cropped even more out for NODS:

DVD screen capture:


You can see that the table & the top of the fireplace have been completely removed!

Also, on a lesser note, the dvd menus are kinda crappy:

Just read #6.  Am I seeing things, or are Quentin and Willie dressed in period clothing?  And, if so, why?

Actually, it looks like Willie is wearing Carl's clothes:

It seems very much like a fill-in issue. Not a bad story but somewhat disjointed. Who are most of these people at the dead party? Aside from the two victims from the last issue, the only ones I can recognize are Carl and Josette. And someone standing by Josette who appears to be Hugh Hefner.

I thought I spotted some more,

I picked mine up today -- weird.  Interesting appearances by some unexpected characters, but pay attention to the conversation between Jack, the now deceased bartender, and Barnabas about Julie, who was traumatized by the events of last issue.  You know, Julie?  The blonde heiress of Collinwood?  "Oh," you're saying, "you mean CAROLYN, not Julie."  Yeah.  That's what I said.

First cover at the very bottom of the page.

First cover I see is 'Fugue Devil..' & then 'Dreams of the Dark'.  [ghost_blink]

But then my computer &/or browser may be conspiring against me.
Nonetheless, I think the blog must had been updated with the direct link:

Am I going blind or does anyone else have trouble locating the cover/link at stephenmarkrainey.com?
