Ha ha, MB, I thought the exact same thing!

The 1991 DS Cast Reunion committee is now accepting registrations (a limit of 300 tickets at first come, first serve, refundable if the event is cancelled, only $20 before May 13) for their East Coast event on July 27 at Lyndhurst.  This is of course the day before the DS Fest begins at the same location but is a totally separate event.

The most recent update includes the above info and the attendance status of each of the 24 living actors from the revival series, plus Monica Rich from NoDS, all of which can be found on their Facebook page:  Friends of the 1991 DS Cast Reunion.

Also:  Raffle of original and '91 series memorabilia and tours of Lyndhurst's tower room; photo ops in the mansion with a donation; autographed photos sold by the stars

A West Coast event will most likely take place in 2013 with tentative guests Joanna Going, Ely Pouget and Eddie Jones.

It all sounds very well organized and could be a lot of fun!

SHADOWGRAM OFFICIAL ONLINE DARK SHADOWS NEWS
Update Number 261. April 19, 2012
*******************************************
Hello, Dark Shadows Fan,

THE PASSING OF JONATHAN FRID

I deeply saddened to inform you of the death of JONATHAN FRID earlier this month, at age 87.

He was the iconic actor who portrayed the sympathetic vampire "Barnabas Collins" (and the Parallel Time character "Bramwell Collins") on the original daytime series "Dark Shadows" 1967-71.

Internet messages began last night about his passing. These were brief and had inaccurate information about the date of his passing.

Following is a message to Jonathan's DS colleagues, fans, and others who knew him.

"In Memoriam - Jonathan Frid
"December 2, 1924 - April 13, 2012

"Donald Frid, Jonathan's nephew, who assisted Jonathan at many of the recent Festivals, has informed us that Jonathan passed away at the age of 87 on April 13, 2012, in Hamilton, Ontario.

"His health had been declining in recent weeks and he died peacefully in his sleep in a local hospital.

"At Jonathan's request, there was no funeral and there will be no memorial service.

"Donations in the memory of Jonathan Frid may be made to Hillfield-Strathallen College, the school where he got his first taste of acting.

http://www.hsc.on.ca/advancing-hsc/tribute-program.html

"Or a charity of your choice.

"Donald and the other members of the Frid family are grateful for all the support and appreciation Jonathan received from the Dark Shadows community over these many years."

At a gathering of family and friends on April 18, the family remarked on John's passing on Friday, April the 13th, and the fact that they were remembering him on April 18, the 45th anniversary of the broadcast of his first appearance at the door of Collinwood.

Thank you.

Marcy Robin

I'm sad to report that we lost a Forum member this past week.  You may be familiar with foreverlynn's Julia/Barnabas fan fic on the web, or know her as co-owner of the fabulous Remembering Grayson site.  One of my favorite Fest moments was captured in this photo after she and her daughter joined a group of us at California Adventure during the 2002 Anaheim Fest.  You sorta had to be there to get why Pluto had us all laughing!

RIP, foreverlynn.

Happy Birthday, Stuart!

According to an IMDB entry, the May 13 ep of Mad Men will be titled "Dark Shadows."

Some speculation about its content on Forbes.com:  "Mad Men" Spoiler: Are Vampires Coming to Sterling Cooper?

First a David Selby guest role, then a movie spot, and now this (?)-- how exciting!  Thanks, Julia99.

With thanks to Ronny G for letting us know that LP was added.  Though a picture of her from HoDS has always been in KLS' photo gallery.  [easter_grin]

1553
There's a topic about the Hollywood Show:
KLS and Barbara Steele are scheduled to appear at the next Hollywood Show, April 21 & 22, at the Burbank Marriott
Thanks for letting us know that LP was added to that event.

1554
Okay, is that David Selby in his cameo role as the man holding a champagne glass behind Michelle/Elizabeth?
Yep.  [easter_grin]

And Lara Parker's hand holding the other glass.  [easter_wink]

1555
KLS and Lara Parker are tentatively scheduled to appear on Saturday, April 14 at Monsterpalooza, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.

Other special guests include a Fright Night reunion, and John Landis and David Naughton.

Many thanks to Kosmo!

For today's something special, he posted this review: Dark Shadows "Fan Favorites" collection boasts nine great episodes at a great price

I assume he'll review "The Best of Barnabas" compilation tomorrow.
