Shadows on the Wall: An Online Dark Shadows Fanzine

Dark Shadows (1966-1971) was a soap opera with an emphasis on the supernatural that has garnered a cult following in the years since it left the air. The introduction of Barnabas Collins (Jonathan Frid) catapulted the series to enormous success, capturing the public's imagination in a way that continues to endure today. This online fanzine will provide a place for rare photos, articles, stories, artwork, and other multimedia as a tribute to the magic and mystery that is Dark Shadows.

House of Dark Shadows: Meeting Her Vampire Lover

Again, I ask: what is his end game here? (And don't you dare say, "To love her for all eternity" again, whoever said that last time! Cuz a) gross and b) rape culture and brainwashing. Seriously: Maggie should use her new vampire powers to whup his undead ass.)
