Dan Curtis passed away on Mar 27. 2006. I would run home after school every day when I was in junior high, not wanting to miss the day's installment.
For those of you too young to have missed out on this, Dark Shadows[I] was a gothhic soap opera incorporating all the classics: Frankenstein, Dracula, Dr. Jeckyll & Mr. Hyde, Jayne Eyre, Wuthering Heights, The Werewolf, The Turn of the Screw and even The Cthulhu Mythos. DS also was the first television show to introduce and explore alternate universes, years before Star Trek and others.
There was also a side story where Barnabas Collins (the vampire) was captured and held prisoner by a previously unsuccessful author, tapping (interviewing) him for ideas for his books. Sounds familiar....
Mr. Curtis produced the 2 Kolchak movies, but not directly involved with the short-lived series [I]The Night Stalker
