Created by Dan Curtis (1927-2006), Dark Shadows (1966-1971) remains one of the most popular cult television series, second only to Star Trek. This cutting-edge gothic soap opera starred Nancy Barrett, Joan Bennett, Louis Edmonds, Grayson Hall, David Henesy, Alexandra Moltke, Lara Parker, Kathryn Leigh Scott, David Selby, and a host of other stage and television actors who all played numerous roles over the course of the show's five-year run. The series' undisputed star, though, was Jonathan Frid, who portrayed Barnabas Collins, an angst-ridden, two-hundred year old bloodsucking anti-hero. When he wasn't putting the bite on his lovely co-stars, he found time to fight the forces of evil which inevitably plagued his ancestral home of Collinwood, including ghosts, werewolves, witches, patchwork creations, and--of course--other vampires. This program has spawned ample merchandising in the last forty years, as well as inspiring two movies, a revival program in 1991, an aborted TV series in 2004, and a recently announced theatrical film featuring Johnny Depp. Due to its waning popularity at the time, the later paperback novelizations had smaller print runs, and are thus harder to find and much more in demand than the earlier, oft-reprinted editions.
