Running Home to Shadows: Memories of TV's First Supernatural Soap from Today's Grown-Up Kids

Overview

School's out, Barnabas is IN! They were a generation all their own, the army of children who ran home from school to watch Dark Shadows, TV's very first supernatural soap. A breed apart, they set aside the worship of mundane pop stars to follow vampires, witches, and werewolves. From 1966 to 1971, they were daytime Monster Kids...and today they have stories to tell. Writer-editor Jim Beard has gathered these grown-up kids together in this tome to tell those tales. Their experiences are sometimes tragic and terrifying, yet also uplifting and inspirational, but above all, Dark Shadows touched them so deeply as to leave an indelible impression on their lives that lasts to this day. Return to Collinwood to brave the stormy nights and rainswept days of yore to listen to this coven of writers spin yarns of childhood encounters with Barnabas, Angelique, Quentin, Vicky, Maggie, and their compatriots. Cross the threshold of the Old House, take a seat by the crackling fire, and make yourself comfortable to the strains of maudlin music issuing forth from the gramophone-the ghosts of the past are about to arise in RUNNING HOME TO SHADOWS. Won't you join us? Edited by Jim Beard with Charles R. Rutledge Cover Illustration by Mark Maddox with Logo Design and Formatting by Maggie Ryel Foreword by Kathryn Leigh Scott Featuring Essays by Greg Cox, Mark Dawidziak, Dave Dykema, Bob Freeman, Ed Gross, Nancy Holder, Tina Hunt, Katherine Kerestman, Mark Maddox (with Ed Catto), Elizabeth Massie, Kimberly Oswald, Martin Powell, Dana Pride, Mark Rainey, Michael Rogers, Charles R.
