You're a very strong-willed young woman, he says, very well--he sits her down--you're going to know sooner or later, I might as well tell you now. Tell me what? she asks. He sits beside her and tells her about the legendary locked room and the family lottery. Do you mean that the stories and rumors in the village are true? she asks. Yes, I'm afraid they are, he says--there is such a room, and once during each generation, someone is chosen by lottery to spend the night in that room. What's in the room? she asks. I don't know, he says, no one has ever known. What about the people who've spent the night there? she asks. No one has ever lived to talk about it, he explains--those who spent the night there have either died or gone mad. Do you mean what happened to Joshua Collins (blooper, should be Justin) was not the result of an accident? she asks. That's right, he says--something happened in that room to my father that was so terrifying he was unable to think of it for the rest of his life. You must not hold this lottery, she insists. We must go through with it, he says. I tell you, I will not lose you this way! she says--it's primitive, I don't even see how you can take it seriously. Of course you would think it strange, he says, I can understand that--and I can also understand if you have second thoughts about marrying into this family. Second thoughts? she asks--I am more determined than ever to marry you now--[/spoiler]
She shows Nora the urn. The little girl is disappointed--oh, it's just an urn. Yes, agrees Laura. Why did you hide it? asks Nora. It's a secret, says Laura. I like secrets, says Nora. Go home to bed, says Laura--I'll come and tell you a wonderful story about the urn. Nora wants her mother to come back to the house with her.I want to stay here a while, says Laura--I can't explain why, but it's necessary and I will see you later. Nora promises to wait for her.[/spoiler]

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.
