What Happened To Joe Haskell?

I was just wondering what happened to Joe. He was carted off to Wyndecliffe - swifted away - What was the outcome? Did Dr. Hoffman do experiments on him? Did she inject him with LSD for fun and profit? Was Joe subjected to images of werewolves? Poor Joe. Any input?

I daresay he escaped, since just about everybody did escape from Windcliff, and ran as far away from Collinsport as he could get.  I wonder if he ever met up with Chris Jennings.

I don't think that we heard from him again. We all know what happened to Nathan. People go off to Wyndcliff when they don't get killed. I guess that is a nice way of cancelling a charactor.

But seriously. What do you think happened to Joe? Perhaps he was rehabilitated. And if he was, did he seek out the love of his life?
I only bring this up because I've been listening to the new radio dramas. Maggie is still working the diner. She apparently had a stint at Wyndecliff. The same old music plays on the Whale juke.
Nothing like a little funk. So what in tarnation happened to Joe???

I heard that Julia and Joe both did a little experimenting with LSD. Rumor  has it that on one of their trips Joe was able to get the keys to the main doors at Wyndcliff and escape. He made off with a large sum of money that he stole from Julia and also her car. They say that he changed his name to Geezer Butler in 1970 and started playing bass for Black Sabbath. You can see him this summer if you catch the Heaven and Hell tour.

Julia, in a moment of absent-mindedness, gave Joe some of the Barnabas's serum, and he aged to 200 years before her eyes and dropped dead.  Julia screamed.

I heard that he aged 200 years, changed his name to Keith Richards, and is still playing guitar for the Rolling Stones.

Joe came out of the closet, moved in with his boyfriend, and the two honeymooned on a gay cruise in 1982, where they were voted Best Couple!

STOP MAKEING FUN OF KEITH RICHARDS!!!!!

Not alot of Joe Haskell fans out there, eh? Oh, well.

I would figure that once he got sprung from the hoo-hoo hotel, he would move as far away from Collinsport as possible, all the way to the west coast, getting a job with the fishing boats among the isolated Oregon coast.  He would still not be "quite right," keeping to himself, being a distant and even hostile person, a total loner, the memories still haunting him.  Some pretty little thing, very Maggie-like, would take to him, trying desperately to help him with whatever is wrong, creating a very tense relationship.  How's that for a Dark Shadows spin-off?

Joe, well yeah, I'd like to think that eventually had the storyline continued he would have made it out of Windcliff, relatively sane, but darker and disturbed. He had been driven to the point by Angelique, and pushed over by Chris. If he had become a little more educated on the subject of his tormentors, he could have uncovered a lot of secrets at Collinwood, making him an admirable danger to those members of the family with skeletons to hide. That would have been an interesting storyline to pursue.

As for Joe, I'm not like a diehard fan of his, but I thought he was pretty much a likeable character.

I'm surprised, David, that you didn't say Joe became a porn star.    (Post DS, Joel certainly had the requisite mustache.  )


I like to think Joe recovered and had a happy life far away from Collinsport. But given that DS is a Gothic soap in which tragedy abounds, that might be too optimistic...

i'm not sure how joe would have fared at wyndcliff.

it seemed to be a pretty ineffectual facility.did anyone ever receive beneficial treatment there?did anyone get "better"?

after the initial set-up during the time that julia was treating maggie there the hospital seems to serve more as a depository for characters leaving the show(either temporarily or permanently)whom the writers don't want to "kill off".

doing summer stock?taking a trip to paris?how about a nice rest at wyndcliff?

willie and elizabeth both seem just as bonkers when they walk out of there as when they walked in.
and for a supposedly "secure" facility it might as well have had a revolving door with the ease with which one could escape.once julia establishes permanent residency at collinwood who the heck runs the place anyways?nurse jackson?

so it's hard to say how joe came out of the experience.as for being a fan of joe the part of the story where he's courting maggie is really sweet.i don't particularly care for what the writers did with the character later on.he was definitely one of the hunkiest actors who ever appeared on the show.

A better question might be did anyone ever receive ANY treatment there? I mean, most of the time the only reason doctors were seen interacting with patients was to get information to support their own theories or to help prevent some disaster. The patients' welfare seemed almost inconsequential to the bigger agenda of the moment.
