Hey, isn't a Dark Shadows Halloween the very BEST kind?
I was delighted this a.m. walking past some display windows in Harvard Square to see the annual show of old 1950s and 60s monster-themed LPs that always show up in one of those windows (for fans in the area, I'm talking about the windows in the building that houses Harvard's Holyoke Center, with Cambridge Trust and Au Bon Pain on the street level). This year I spotted such gems as Boris Karloff reciting Edgar Allan Poe, dramatizations of some Lovecraft tales, a hysterical "Mad Monster Bash" LP featuring Hans Conreid and beloved Alice Pearce (the *definitive* Gladys Kravitz for Ancient Blood fans), some jazz combo thing wittily titled "Songs our Mummy taught us" AND, right there in the mix, the Dark Shadows Soundtrack Album Featuring "Barnabas" and "Quentin"!
It was great to see DS remembered in such a vintage group, and to have it acknowledged for the classic it truly is!
Best Witches to ye all!

Hey that's great! Thanks for sharing the information. The 60s and 70s yielded some of the BEST horror-themed LPs I've ever heard. My uncle gave me a couple of great Pickwick monster and ghost story records which I still have. Happy Halloween!
Take Scare,
