I didn’t consciously collect five films with Bella Heathcote in them, but I’ve now watched all of them, and I’m glad I saved the worst of the lot for last. What wasted potential this one is. So many good ideas, so little done with them. :( #DarkShadows

My colleague and great scholar of Tolkien, Fantasy and Weird Fiction Douglas A. Anderson has unearthed some very interesting information on one of the books in the #DarkShadows collection see his blog post here # DarkShadows http://tolkienandfantasy.blogspot.com
There's a great collection of Dark Shadows on Tubi. It's comfort television.
I could live every day at Collinwood Mansion. Sleep in the crypt. ⚰️
A moment of tension when I discovered the 24/7 Dark Shadows channel was missing from PlutoTV. I just now discovered that it's been moved to "on demand." That provides some relief.
Dark Shadows is my happy place. ♥️🦇⚰️🧛♂️
Tubi and Philo also have some episodes.
I hope I can survive on this reconfiguration.
