Title: Popular Form of Death on DS
Post by: VAM on April 03, 2002, 04:08:58 AM

Right now, we are witnessing a lot of deaths by strangulation.  What are some of those popular forms of death in Collinsport?

Strangulation is a popular one, especially in this storyline.  We have knifings, shootings, leaps from Widows' Hill, vampire bites, electrocution, gosh, the choices are endless.

DARK SHADOWS, a la CLUE, murder attempts and successes--

Trask in the basement with bricks and a trowel, LOL!

Barnabas and Julia in Woodard's office with a deadly hypo.

David in the garage with a wrench and a bleeder valve.

Joe in Blair House with a letter opener.

Gawd, the possibilities are endless!

Love, Robin

Robin, how about an example of electrocution?  Offhand I can't think of anything.  I'm guessing the answer will be a spoiler.

Strangulation is a good one. Also hanging is another one. They seem to use fire alot as well, but this mostly seems reserved for the" non humans" on the show! ;D

Seems to me the most popular method of death is jumping or falling from Widow's Hill. Can you name all the people who met their end there?

Bill Malloy
Josette
Beth
Samantha
Jeb Hawk

Who else am I forgetting?

The Widows (so add three people)
Vicki (if you believe Jeb Hawkes)

And for strangulation, add Edith Collins

Robin, how about an example of electrocution?  Offhand I can't think of anything.  I'm guessing the answer will be a spoiler.

[spoiler]Adam tried to electrocute Vicki in the basement lab using the "bring the dead to life" equipment.  Carolyn is killed in this manner, but brought back to life by Nicolas Blair.  I recall another electrocution when they tried again to bring Eve back to life, but she was turned into a skeleton.

Then there was the prostitute Petofi and Laszlo killed while trying to find out how to reach the future via I-ching.  She was left a skeleton, pretty grisly scene.

Remember how Laszlo planned to murder Julia in 1897?  He set up a gun attached to a rope that Barnabas would open, thereby discharging the gun, causing Barnabas to kill his friend.  It didn't work because they realized Julia was only in 1897 in essence, not in reality.  It's complicated, LOL.

Love, Robin

I don't recall the Vicki example, but the Carolyn one, definitely.  I couldn't think of that before.  Thank you!
