Since first airing on ABC from 1966 to 1971, Dark Shadows has earned the reputation of being one of the most unusual and enduring programs in television history. The character of Barnabas Collins, a remorseful, 175 year old vampire, brought the show tremendous success.

When looking at older television shows, you often jump to the Hitchcocks, the Twilight Zone, to name a couple. This one is often overlooked and is just as good in its own way. Shot in a live theatre style with many Shakespearian actors and actresses, this show feels both like a television show and a good play. Each episode leaves you hanging for 1225 episodes of suspense. I would recommend this show to anybody who likes the horror or sci-fi genres.

Best mystery ever. Gave me something to look forward to after school. Now that I'm middle-age, I still watch reruns and love it even more.

Haunting music, beautifully designed sets and costumes, ensemble cast, atmospheric stories. Perfection. Not recommended for those who don't understand the limitations of a 1960s program filmed live every day. They did incredible work with the resources they had at the time.
