Are you ready to take a trip to the craziest town in the 1970s, Collinsport, Maine? A town filled with vampires, witches, werewolves, and ghosts? Then head out to the movie theater and check out Dark Shadows.
Victoria Winters comes to Collinwood, an isolated mansion in coastal Maine, to work as a governess, but soon finds herself drawn into a strange, Gothic world of vampires, ghosts and a family curse that dates back centuries. This is the official beginning to the immensely popular black and white soap opera soap opera. It opened in June of 1966, no doubt part of the reason so many kids got hooked on the story.
