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.

Dark Shadows Comic Strip Season 12 ... PREMIERE!
We're back! Here, once again, is the on-going comic strip inspired by our beloved Dark Shadows that I've been working on for the last eleven years or so.
Here's the last week of season 11, which will be followed by the premiere of Season 12! Catch us daily for the next four months or so, with color strips on Sundays! (It's easy to catch up ... just click on the "comic strip" link and you can scroll back endlessly to your heart's content!)
Angelique, heart-broken by her husband Quentin's rejection of her, traveled to the mysterious world of Parallel Time to find love with a new Quentin. Barnabas was caught in her jet-stream and found that the Collinwood of that time was even stranger and darker than his own. The entire town had been besieged by vampires, and the Quentin of Parallel Time had fashioned himself a vampire slayer.
Meanwhile, Hoffman the housekeeper, revealed herself to be one of the undead, and determined to create an army of vampires that would, she hoped, spread into the world from whence Barnabas hailed. She also murdered Angelique ... the Angelique of our world. Now, with nearly everyone on the great estate baring their own fangs, Quentin and Barnabas must work together to stop the spread of vampirism ...
And now ... the premiere of SEASON 12! Creepy theremin theme ... GO!
