But I did find a pic of Collinwood I had saved: http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/174/collinwoodbh5.jpg This is the Carey Mansion in Newport, Rhode Island - - now part of Salve Regina University where I got my Masters. The building is perfectly preserved and wonderful!!! I just found this thread. I am thrilled!!! I have always adored Dark Shadows! I used to run home from school to catch every episode - - showing my age a bit, eh!?!?! Dark Shadows was one of my first inspirations into the Gothic World - - and I've stayed there! - - my students call me "GOTH FOR LIFE"!!! I still have Quentin's theme on an old 45 record - - just need a new turn-table to play it! DS was the best soap opera on television! When a character died, unlike on other shows, we always knew the actor would return in another form, time-zone or dimension!!! We all wanted Josette's hair, Daphne's mystery - - remember the smell of lilacs?!?, and Angelique's power! Barnabus' cane and ring - - Quentin's lambchop sideburns - - Willie's foolishness . . . . . . and we all learned to despise the nasty preacher, "Reverend" Trask!!! Great memories!!! Thanks! Hare I have too seen the mansion. Beautiful Building it is. It's wonderful to see Dark Shadows fan here. I have love the series for a long time. good times Edited June 24, 2009 by Miss Amy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortoise and Hare Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 QUOTE (Jack Aubrey @ Jun 23 2009, 10:57 PM) I wasn't a huge fan, but I watched it off and on. I also had this model kit when I was a lad and Barnabus sat on my shelf for about five years until my friends and I blew him up with firecrackers (you know the equation, young boys + firecrackers + boredom = stuff gets blown up!): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v329/JackAubrey/BSRlgVQBGkKGrHgoH-D4EjlLl0WegBKCYyT.jpg You blew up Barnabus with a "Sid maneuver"?!?!? Oh my!!!!! Hare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
