The Dark Shadows Alphabet Game

[loril54]

T for trouble, the problem they had in going back to 1971 and troubling contradictions.

[EmeraldRose]

U is for Ubiquitous - Being or seeming to be everywhere at the same time; omnipresent - such as Angelique's "death shadow" which was following Jeb Hawkes everywhere he went and kept getting bigger and bigger.

V

Vulgar  (Maggie to Roger)

[IluvBarnabas]

W is for wives.....Roger sure made some poor choices there on both of them.

[loril54]

x = xyst a shadded walk, there were shadded walks by the Gazebo. There were tree's around all the paths.

[IluvBarnabas]

Y is for yammer...Gabriel of 1840 RT did a lot of that [spoiler]and he wasn't even really paralyzed![/spoiler]

Z is for Zamindar - A landowner.  The Collins family owned lots of land.

By the way, I posted this once before, but it disappeared, so I'm posting this again.

Sorry, Sally. Zamindar was rejected and removed.

[EmeraldRose]

OK, thanks Dom. I'm glad it wasn't rejected and removed this time! I looked up Z words online and found this word.

Actually, the game does need another Z word because Zamindar doesn't quite fit for DS because, well, Collinsport isn't located in India or Pakistan - which is why the word was removed the first time around. 

[EmeraldRose]

Oh, crap!    Maybe I can find another Z word later, if nobody else posts one.

Z is for getting the zaboombas scared out of you while watching DS, as in:

When I saw the Dream Curse during the original run as a child, it had elements which absolutely scared the zaboombas out of me.  But then, I was a ten-year-old kid, and things were scarier back then. 

(It's such a great word, I couldn't pass up trying it  ).

Sadly, I don't think that one will get by either. And I really do mean that it's sad because it could have been such a great word if only it was actually in the dictionary. 

(Apparently there is such a thing as a zambomba - but it's a Spanish percussion instrument - again, not quite in keeping with DS. If only some character had once played one on the show. If only Desi Arnaz had dropped by Collinwood to sing Babaloo!    Or perhaps more appropriately, if only someone at Collinwood had celebrated La Zambomba at Christmastime. But, alas, they were always too busy fighting ghosts, witches, warlocks, werewolves, vampires - and fighting for their lives.  )

[JosettesMusicBox]

Z is for Zener Diode (Voltage Regulator) that was most likely used in Julia's Laboratory.

[EmeraldRose]

A is for Alarm - the bells that Elizabeth rang when she pushed the button were part of an alarm to let people know she was alive.
