Title: Dark Shadows Journal Online Re-opens
Post by: Stuart on May 20, 2002, 09:28:35 PM

Dear DARK SHADOWS fans

After a long hiatus, I am pleased to announce the Dark Shadows Journal Online has moved to its new, permanent home at http://www.collinwood.net . It will continue to be accessible from http://www.darkshadows.co.uk, but for fastest access, the new URL is recommended.

New features on the site include:

* MULTIMEDIA: A selection of video and audio highlights from the original series are now available to download. You can also enjoy the beginnings of the new photograph gallery, which includes three rare photographs of HUMBERT ALLEN ASTREDO in some of his final theatre roles before his retirement, along with rare South American promotional material for "House of Dark Shadows".  [If anyone is able to identify the productions the photos of Humbert originate from, please get in touch]

* ARTICLES & FEATURES: Reviews of "Trilogy of Terror II" and the "Dark Shadows Comic Strip Book", along with "Dark Days at Collins House", a classic factual article on the origins of the show from the archives of the Dark Shadows Journal.

* NEWS: Many updates, including news on the new DVD range and BEN CROSS' London West End role in "Art"

* CAST BIOGRAPHIES: A new page on Kate Jackson's career and many minor updates to the existing pages.

* ILLUSTRATED EPISODE GUIDE: Over 50 new summaries added, taking the guide into Summer 1967.

I'd like to thank everyone for being so patient during the changeover in servers and I really hope you'll enjoy the new features it has allowed. Regular updates will now recommence and your interest and support is appreciated as always.  Let me know what you like about the site [and what you don't] and if anyone is interested in contributing, please get in touch.

Thanks

Stuart

Stuart, it's GORGEOUS, and well worth the wait!

The photos of HAA are fantastic.  There's so much more I could rave about, and I haven't seen it all yet!  Congratulations!!

Oops!  And I forgot to add, there's also a page of photos of Kathryn Leigh Scott and Marie Wallace from the recent Frightvision convention...

And yeah, I was thrilled with the Humbert photos -- now, if I could only find out what plays they were from...

Stuart,

Go to the Members, er, Cousins area and send a message to Linda.  I'm sure she can help you find out.
