The truth about the car crash that sent Burke to prison was kept secret for 10 years. >:(

SHERIFF GEORGE PATTERSON

Bzzzzt. Wrong. The sheriff never told anyone why he looked one way yesterday, another way the day before that, and--woops!-- today he looks like he did the first day but not like he's going to look tomorrow. ;D

Mrs. Johnson.

Didn't Mrs. Johnson come over to be a paid snoop (I know a lot of people who would jump on that offer lol)/spy for Burke? I guess that would qualify as a secret, though it's mild compared to some of the secrets that the people of Collinsport and Collinwood have.

You are correct.....would you like to trade for what's in the box that Jay has on the tray, or what's behind the curtain that Carol is pointing to?

Maggie Evans & Professor Stokes ;)

As for the ones with the secrets:

Theres Julia with her "secret" desire for Barnabas. Along with this, she also has a very dark secret in which she assisted with the death of a very good friend of hers, Dr.Woodard.

Now there's also Jeff Clark who feels he has many secrets, only he hasn't figured out what they are yet. [hdscrt]

Carolyn, of course is keeping the secret of hiding Adam, although with the way things are going at Collinwood, it doesn't appear it'll be a secret much longer.

Title: Re: Listen, do you want to know a secret...
Post by: Julianka7 on July 17, 2002, 01:17:45 PM: Cassandra, Maggie had at least a couple of secrets.
One being that she hadn't really been turned into a
Levithan and was working under cover for Barnabas.
Professor Stokes, he had a secret that comes to mind.
That he was hiding and helping Adam.
I think Vam came up with the only one who did not
have a secret-Buzz ;)

Post by: thom on July 17, 2002, 04:42:09 PM: Dont' know if this really counts cuz it ties into the secret of Barnabas, but Angelique was left out of the official family history by Joshua so no one in the following decades would know she was a Collins bride.

Tying into Vicki's story, just who was Betty Hanscombe? The fact that the painting resembled Vicki was intriguing but I always thought through the run of the series that it was a painting of Joan Bennett - it had her 1966ish hairstyle and all! My theory on the Vicki parentage deal is that Arthur Hamscombe, the family butler had a wife who had an affair with Jamison Collins, Liz and Roger's father, and the affair resulted in Betty. I would even go far as tos ay that Hanscombe's wife named the child Elizabeth and went by Betty to taunt Jamison. Maybe the old guy promised to marry her and he changed his mind. Betty Hanscombe grew up to be a wild child, suspecting she was a Collins because of the resemblance to Elizabeth but never being told the truth. So when Paul Stoddard comes to Collinwood and romances Liz, Betty seduces him(not that hard to do, apparently Paul had a more than roving eye!) and their union produced Vicki. Liz knew this child was not only her husbands's(making Vicki Carolyn's half sister) but also her niece. Through the Garners, Liz has the child sent to a foundling home and sends the monthly checks. Guilt ridden after all the years by what she did to Paul and his child, Liz sends for Vicki to come be 'part' of the family in a most unusual way. I wish this is what had happened. To tie a supernatural element into wouldn't ahve been hard. Betty could have been an Angelique type witch wannabe who sacrificed her soul to the devil through dealings with Paul and Mr. Strack. Oh well..to dream.

The good Prof. certainly has the secret of where his Magic Herb is stashed, and Maggie hopefully has VICTORIA'S SECRET!

SHERIFF GEORGE PATTERSON

Ahhh, but Sheriff Patterson DOES have a secret: self-transformation! He looks completely different every time we see it? How does he do it???? :D

Well, Maggie certainly had a secret after Barnabas first bit her. She hid her fang marks with a scarf and went back to work at the coffee shop. To what extent she understood what happened to her is unclear, but she did keep that secret. She also later learned Barnabas' secret and was hypnotized to forget it . . . so that's two secrets.

Professor Stokes kept Adam a secret and refuses to fully divulge what information he might have to Julia and Barnabas . . . no fool he!

Mr. Juggins had the best secret of all . . . who put him up there in the deserted West Wing? Was he a clothes mannequin or a real person turned into a dummy (kind of like Victoria Winters)?

The bat, of course, knows a secret: who he is in mortal form.

And sorry VAM but Buzz Hacket did have a secret. Only he and Carolyn knew what they were out doing at all hours of the night. ;)

I'm betting the secret of Buzz Hackett is that his real name was something like "Milton" or "Woodrow." ;)

You're welcome ;)
Every since reading your message though I've had that
Beatles song stuck in my head. You know the one that
starts, "Do you want to know a secret.
Do you promise not to tell?" LOL

How many secrets were kept at Collinwood and can you list them? We all know the BIG one.

Would I be correct offering that the "the BIG one" is how viewers mistook JF's staring into space trying to remember his lines as feelings of guilt, remorse, and suffering by Barnabas regarding his being a vampire?
