dom, that would be so beyond awesome.

Of course, Talking Liz would pose regally in the model stance. Next question: is the hair the tiara up-do of 1967, or the Lady Bird Johnson Hair Helmet look of 1969-70? Decisions, decisions!

This does not seem to have mentioned in the latest ShadowGram but is making the rounds on "social media" today.

You've heard of Talking Tina, but are you ready for "Talking Barnabas"?

I really hope one of the "soliloquies" is Barnabas uttering the immortal words, "Tonight must go nothing wrong!"

Joe Certa's attempts at drawing Julia in the old Gold Key comics often looked like Paul Lynde in a bad wig and worse earrings.

Nice to see.

Memory cheats but I honestly don't recall ever being confused about what was happening on the show. I have read that the writers and everyone else got confused. I finally understood that when it was explained in the PomPress books that they regularly taped the shows way out of order.

Also, this article repeats the standard story that the plug was pulled by the network because of low ratings, when in fact the ratings were going up again in the final couple of months. As I have noted many times in the past, my personal view was the Dan Curtis himself told the network he was done. Of course, just how he got them to agree to that since presumably he was under contract to produce the show for them, is a mystery I doubt we will ever solve--minus help from the I Ching wands, of course.

A friend sent this to me, as Tommy Keene was a favorite singer-songwriter of his. I gather Mr. Keene is no longer among the living. Perhaps he's watching Dark Shadows in that eternal video lounge Beyond.

That's hilarious about that screening. Dysfunctional much?

I have to admit I love the new music video. I loved seeing KLS as Liz and the fact that Miss Scott wore a gown given to her by THE Mistress of Collinwood makes it all the more special. I do wonder how some fans will react to the scenario portrayed in the film. Great casting for Barnabas.

Also, the star has GREAT hair... but then, I'm a huge ginger fan.

Interesting article about Greystone, with really nice photos of various rooms of the interior as well as the grounds. I didn't know the estate had been used as a shooting location for the Bette Davis film DEAD RINGER (1964)--a delightful film.
