unlabelledView post →I haven’t seen Besson’s DRACULA, but it’s so wild how “Mina is the reincarnation of Dracula’s bride” has become part of the accepted lore. None of this is from the book; he’s directly pulling from Coppola’s 1992 film, which was cribbing from DARK SHADOWS (and maybe THE MUMMY), as was FRIGHT NIGHT 🤣

All the chairs were coin-operated massage chairs. I had no coins. The theater played Johnny Depp’s “Dark Shadows” over and over. I died that night and was reborn.

"The Zuni doll was a little hand puppet, but it worked," Curtis said. "I did it all with smoke and mirrors." #HorrorSky

unlabelledView post →Dracula obsessing over a reincarnation of his lady love is not in the novel and was, in fact, a plot point from DARK SHADOWS that Dan Curtis liberally borrowed from himself when making the 1974 Dracula movie starring Jack Palance, which in turn, directly influenced elements of Coppola's adaptation.

unlabelledView post →Jonathan Frid hated the DARK SHADOWS movie so much that he turned down the sequel—which got him fired from the TV series. The show was cancelled before Barnabas could leave the canvas, but it was planned. Such was the hubris of Dan Curtis, who never understood what made DARK SHADOWS a phenomenon.

unlabelledView post →Film 26 of 2025: The Haunting of Rosalind (1973) A made for tv movie, The Haunting of Rosalind adapts a Henry James short story. The Dark Shadows influence really shows; it has that great vintage "tv gothic" look--and a dewy-faced Susan Sarandon in one of the main roles! Extremely my shit.

unlabelledView post →49. The reincarnation romance that seems so core to Dracula isn't in the novel. It comes originally from Mummy stories, which then filtered through the vampire Barnabas Collins in Dark Shadows and on, eventually, to Dracula (maybe for the first time in Coppola's movie, but not sure atm).
unlabelledView post →It's a dark and stormy night... What movie are you watching? House of Dark Shadows (1970) Vampire Barnabas Collins (Jonathan Frid) searches for a cure for vampirism so that he can marry his human love (Kathryn Leigh Scott). Filmed at Lyndhurst gothic mansion in Tarrytown, NY.
unlabelledView post →Dark Shadows, the TV series, not the movie.
unlabelledView post →This reincarnation business is a first for Dracula, but Dan Curtis previously used it in Barnabas/Josette in Dark Shadows. So Palance's Dracula has a little Barnabas in him. No wonder i like this movie. #svengoolie

She gained new fans as the matriarch of the Collins family on gothic soap Dark Shadows. @tcmparty.bsky.social @tcmfans.bsky.social My art.
unlabelledView post →House of Dark Shadows (1970) is the terrifying, bloody cinematic expansion of the legendary gothic soap opera Dark Shadows. Gone is the daytime soap's restraint, unleashing a genuinely brutal, atmospheric, and uncompromising vampire horror film to the big screen. #vampirehorror #horror #horrormovies

unlabelledView post →TRIVIA: Dan Curtis's original idea for 'House Of Dark Shadows' had been to edit together footage from the original TV series into a feature-length film. Once he realized that a new film could get away more graphic violence than the TV series could, the “clip show film” idea was abandoned. (IMDB) 🖤
unlabelledView post →Film 31 of 2025: The Screaming Skull (1973) The Screaming Skull is part of The Classic Ghosts series of made-for-tv movies. This one is an adaptation of the F. Marion Crawford story found in every ghost story anthology. Strong Dark Shadows vibes, fun stuff!
unlabelledView post →Creator Dan Curtis is a vastly undervalued name in American horror, having also been behind Dark Shadows, The Night Stalker, and my favorite “great actors slumming in a weirdo horror movie,” Burnt Offerings.

unlabelledView post →My first exposure to Joan Bennett was Dark Shadows. I had no clue she had a film career going back to the silents. #WereNoAngels #TCMParty
unlabelledView post →#filmsky Dan Curtis, who left us #OTD in 2006, doesn’t get enough credit as a master of horror. His TV movie The Night Stalker is one of the scariest vampire stories; Burnt Offerings is an underrated haunted house film. Toss in Dark Shadows and Trilogy Of Terror, and Dan deserves a lot more love.
unlabelledView post →Good one on #Svengoolie tonight! The second Kolchak movie before the legendary TV series started. Richard Matheson (I am Legend), Dan Curtis (Dark Shadows) and Darren McGavin make quite the combo! I recommend watchng all Kolchaks with subtitles on you can catch all his funny rapid fire dialogue.
