I only got the chance to read the first 10 pages before I had to do something else. But even just those pages confirmed something we'd suspected, and that is that the artwork on page 102 of the Dark Shadows Visual Companion depicts a scene from the prologue that featured Thomas McDonell's version of Barnabas (it's on pages 2 & 3 of the script). And even though that scene isn't in the film, because of tweets made to twitter in September of 2011, we know McDonell did indeed shoot his material for the film. So, chances are that scene or some version of it remained in the shooting script.
Another thing that's interesting is that originally Victoria did the voiceover. We knew that as late as April of 2012 a new voiceover had been written by Grahame-Smith and recorded by Depp. But we had no idea that Victoria had once done the voiceover, or at least that it was planned for her to do it...
