I am so pleased to bring you a 7 part series on Dark Shadows!

I hope you enjoy this exhaustive look at one of the most iconic dark gothic horror programs on television. I found a lot to talk about in the culture and environment of Dark Shadows.

Dark Shadows began on June 27, 1966, so I am timing these articles around the anniversary of the show. I hope you love the series as much as I loved putting it together!

As I post a new piece, I will put the link in this document, so they are all going to end up here.
