Dark Sahdows fans will remember her as the stunningly beautiful witch Angelique, responsible for transforming Barnabas Collins into TV’s most famous vampire.

RIP, dear lady. Your beauty, but also the forceful terror you inspired, captivated me as a kid in the 60s/70s who ran home from the school bus everyday to watch Dark Shadows!

Another great loss. Sad that she passed.

Here’s the scene I referenced, above. It’s hokey by today’s standards but keep in mind this was 1966 daytime TV:

it is a shame that there has not been a successful remake or reboot of Dark Shadows. I know that attempts were made but nothing was ever successful, which is a shame.

RIP. I actually liked the Tim Burton film, but it didn't click with the Twighlight fan girls.
