Angelique Stokes Collins, Posing





A few shots of Lara Parker as Angelique, posing for the Parallel Time portrait; a few shots I've never seen before, or that are slightly different than the others I've encountered in the wild.

In the Immortal Words of Dr. Julia Hoffman ...


... screw you, 2017!  EEEE-YOW!

Welcome to 2018!

One hesitates to say it couldn't be any worse than 2017; at any rate, let's hope we don't find out.  In the meantime, here are your Dark Shadows favorites to ward off (more) evil:
