I was 10 in 1966.. And when it came out, we lived a couple of blocks from school. WE all would run to make it on time. I lived in New Orleans so at 3:30, showtime!! I loved horror movies always. Now, I am in my 60's, and every night at 9 I put it on. Total binger for Dark Shadows. Thayer David was a genius actor. I loved Joan Bennett. I would love to go on a Dark Shadows cruise......HOORAY FOR DAN CURTIS!!!!
