    I used to run home after school to watch Dark Shadows. Barnabas Collins was and is still the sexiest vampire EVER.

    A few years ago it was on the sci-fi channel and I used to enjoy watching it before leaving for work every morning :)

    There was always something terrible about to happen on that show but nothing ever did. Just a lot of queer looks by Barnabas. :)

    Dark Shadows is fuckin awesome!!! I used to watch it on Sci-Fi before I went to school... I also watched it when I was really little. LoL even as a child I was a big Dark Shadows fan. Barnabas is still my favorite! Too bad it doesn't come on anymore, I wish it would. :-(

    I loved this show, I remember one summer they played it on one of the tv stations I think sci fi and I was hooked! It was like my creepy soap opera. The beginning was awesome. I loved Victoria she was my favorite.

    If the local reporters who worked for The Collinsport Star wanted to keep their jobs they knew better than to snoop around Collinwood :eek:

    BTW the mansion is actually located in Newport, Rhode Island [​IMG]

    As I remember , a nurse cured Barnabas of being a vampire , but there were some other family members that became a vampire. This show was on in the 60 s as I remember. desert rat

    It was a gothic soap opera back in the 1960s, but like I said in my original post in 2006 it was on the sci-fi channel a few years earlier in 2003 :2thumbsup:

    When I had cable tv and got the sci fi chanel , I do remember watching some of the old shows . From what I can remember from the 60s was , the show ran for a whle , off for while and came back for a year or so . Being that it was 40 + years ago I just remember bits and pices . Barnabas Collins was always the central figure . desert rat
