I am very intrigued by David Selby's new stage show. Wonder if he'll be performing it elsewhere? I would love to see it.

Looking forward to reports, if anybody who posts here is actually attending.  The logistics make my head hurt.

Happy Birthday Doctor, and K-9 too!

in related news, I read somewhere that the issue of Video Watchdog with the lengthy "round table" featured dedicated to Dark Shadows won some type of award--best theme issue of a magazine perhaps?

It's nice to see the series so well represented!

Gerard, I would always get so excited whenever I would hear a cue from DS on another program, after the show went off the air.  I don't remember the music from Night Stalker so much, but I do remember the string of productions DC did for that ABC late night slot that were dramatic adaptations of Dorian Gray, Frankenstein, and others.  They all had the old DS cues which he recycled for the score.  Even when DS was still on, he did the same thing for Dead of Night/Darkness at Blaisedon (a personal favorite in my home).

The strangest instance of this was at some point in, I think, the early 1990s, all of a sudden DS cues were being played during some Saturday Night Live skits.  I didn't watch often enough to be able to report how frequently this happened, but the one or two times I experienced it, it was a very strange thing to see and hear on the TV.

Happy Happy Birthday!  Another joyous day of fun, frolicking, celebration... and tapioca!  May it all be super-mega-fantabulosa!

cheers, Gothick

Yes, there's an incredibly vivid photo of Barbara from the torture sequence in Black Sunday in full color.  It is a shot that has supposedly never been published before.

I was able to see an online preview of the issue and thought there were some interesting bits in it.

Best,  G.

Angelique's coffin was originally in a secluded basement room of the House by the Sea.  Towards the end of her time in that particular storyline, she moved her coffin AND stole the magic mirror to another location.  I was never sure exactly where it was, but Barnabas took Julia there after Nicholas's disappearance and that was when they found the shattered mirror.
