4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book about the history of Dark Shadows., October 27, 1999

By	Denise Bain "jdbain" (Kokomo, IN) - See all my reviews

The book explains how the show got it's start. You read about how the actors were choosen and about them personally. There is a section about what each actor has done since the show ended. An episode guide gives a brief summary about all 1245 shows. There are several pictures throughout the book. Stories are told about the writing, set designs,and funny things that happened during the run of the show. This is a very interesting book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, mainly for Dark Shadows fans, March 16, 1999

By	Kathi Gilliland (Texas, United States) - See all my reviews

This is an excellent book for fans, having both information about the series as well as sources for further information such as fan clubs and where to look for videos. I highly recommend it for fans of Dark Shadows. It also has an episode guide, which comes in handy for viewing and taping favorite episodes. This book has turned me on to some of the many Dark Shadows sites that are accessible on the internet.
