Description:
With its alluring tales of Gothic mystery and supernatural intrigue, Dark Shadows became one of the most popular daytime series of all time. Since first airing on ABC-TV from 1966-71, Dark Shadows has earned the reputation as being one of the most unusual and enduring programs in television history. The character of Barnabas Collins, a guilt-ridden 175 year-old vampire, brought the show tremendous success.
Dr. Julia Hoffman promises Barnabas that his secret is safe if he will allow her to conduct experiments to cure him of his vampirism. Jealous of Victoria Winters' engagement to Burke Devlin, Barnabas plans revenge against Burke, who becomes suspicious of Barnabas and begins to investigate him. While trying to hide from Barnabas, David Collins becomes trapped in the secret room of the Collins Mausoleum. The frightened boy pleads with the ghost of Sarah Collins to rescue him. Barnabas realizes that David may hold the key to finding his late sister's spirit.

The best aspect of this Collection is that the viewer gets drawn into the stories ... Read More
Rating:  - THE DARK SAGA CONTINUES. . .
I found Collection 3 not to be as good or as full of twists and turns as Collection 2. But in order to follow this unique series, I recommend you get through this collection. As with any series, there are ups and downs in the writing. Each episode lasts approximately 20 minutes (since there's no commercials). You get so wrapped up in the story that before you know it, you have watched a few episodes one after the other - and it leaves you wanting more! I find the interviews of the cast members at the ...
