The Dark Shadows Alphabet Game

T is for tea strainer.  Mrs. Davenport never did get hers, did she? 

Have one for T and U....I hope that's ok....

Turn of the Screw (Dan Curtis "borrowed" from this work twice)

United front (Julia and Barnabas)

V is for villians (1967 vamp Barnabas, Angelique, Nicholas Blair, Count Petofi, the male Trasks, Jason McGuire, Judah Zachery/Gerard Stiles, Nathan Forbes plus many more).

Have one for T and U....I hope that's ok....

The U made the list, but a T word was already given.  Answers are given in alphabetic order, each turn covering only the next letter.


W is for Winter-- the season Vicki was left on the doorstep, also the inspiration for her last name.

X = xoanon wooden statue or god, wasn't there one of this in some of the witchcraft scenes doing some practices.

Mrs. Davenport never did get hers, did she?

I don't believe she did. Well, unless the Todds were kind enough to [spoiler]give it to her after their "son" had killed her husband.    One would hope it was the least they could have done.  [/spoiler]

Y is for Never Too Young, the show DS replaced on ABC.

Maybe Philip did, but I'm not so sure about Megan. [spoiler]She always justified what Michael or Jeb always did and I remember how completely cold and unremorseful she was over the fact that her "boy" killed Paul Stoddard....hell she wanted him to do it! She did let him out of the room to attack Paul down in the basement. For appearances' sake, Megan would put on the sympathetic friend/woman act but behind closed doors she would coddle her "son".[/spoiler]

Anyway Z is for zooty....[spoiler]like when everyone wore the old costumes from the trunk at the Old House tp Barnabas' costume party. (I thought they are looked great.....even Burke for all his 20th-century modern-day thinking, really shined in his costume).[/spoiler]

A is for ankle-- a bride can twist hers as a sure way to postpone her honeymoon.  Or to get access to a doctor for the purpose of putting a hex on him.


I've been wanting to make a request to all players, and no one in particular, and the start of the alphabet seems as good a time as any.  It has to do with helping us in updating the list that's provided to help all of you.  Correct spelling has never been a requirement on the boards before, but since this IS an alphabet game and your answer will be transfered to a searchable list, can players please make an effort to spell their letter-words correctly?  Being careful with the spelling of your answers in the game (i.e. "ankle") would be much appreciated by the list updaters.  Thanks. 

BTW, Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.2 has a spell checker.  Though right click is disabled here, you'll still see the red underline. 

Are we ever going to change some letters like X like we can't use sound alike. Some letters will soon run out. ??

B  for Beach couple definitions what ship does, and the area below widows hill

[spoiler]the entrance to the old house basement, and people escape to[/spoiler]

Some letters will soon run out. ??

And then the game will end. Actually, I'm shocked that it has gone on this far. Everyone has been doing an excellent job of keeping it going, but it IS going to end eventually. 


C is for Joe Caldwell, one of the DS writers.

D is for Diana Millay

E is for Erica Fitz.

E is for Erica Fitz.

Or Eric. 

F is for 5 years-- Burke's prison term for manslaughter.

G is for the Golden Scimitar, which King Johnny intended to use on Count Petofi.

H is for Aunt Hannah.
