Dear Fellow Dark Shadows Fans,
Throughout our nation's history, Americans have been equally fascinated and confounded by many enduring mysteries, perplexing mysteries such as:
The puzzling disappearance of the settlers of the so-called "Lost Colony" of Roanoke Island, NC. in 1587.
The truly mystifying disappearance of the great American aviator, Amelia Earhart, over the waters of the Pacific Ocean in 1937.
However, perhaps the greatest mystery of all occurred back in 1968: After Willie Loomis kidnapped Maggie Evans and imprisoned her in the secret room of the Collins mausoleum, just what did Maggie do, when she had to go "potty"? I'm not kidding! For 34 years, this great DS mystery has tormented me. I can't begin to tell you how many sleepless nights, not knowing the answer to this question, it has cost me.
As our friend and very insightful colleague, Gerard, has pointed out in the past, there seems to be a dearth of "water closets," not only in Collinwood, but in every other house or structure in Collinsport, ME.
So, maybe ol' Wilie installed one of those "port-o-johnnies, that are frequently seen at construction sites and at outdoor concert events, in the secret room for the "comfort" of anyone who happened to be "occupying" Barnabas' former resting place. Can you think of any other "solutions" to this enduring Dark Shadows mystery?
Sincerely,
Bob the Bartender, who fondly remembers that card in the game "Clue," which says: "Go to the bathroom and take someone with you."
