It's cool, Neal. Just wondering if you're steeped enough in Dark Shadows to be able to have the same experience I did reading this comic.

Dark Shadows was my first exposure to anything spooky. I remember watching the show when I was a little kid. But because I was so little, I don't remember anything about the show except that I was always impatient for Collins to appear. I was born in 1965, so I was very wee when "Dark Shadows" was on TV. But I have no doubt that the show spurred my interest in Halloween, Kolchak, Stephen King and all kinds of horror movies.

It's kind of brilliant someone linked the vampire in Night Stalker to Barnabas Collins in Dark Shadows. Especially since both were produced by Dan Curtis.

Really spooky. I've actually got the entire soundrack for the series on my iPod. Love still watching this show on DVD, which I do with my kids, and listening to the music on my iPod. Just makes me smile and takes me back to when I, too, used to bolt off the school bus to watch Dark Shadows on ABC at 4pm!

Hey Joe! I really enjoyed the Kolchak/Dark Shadows story! I don't remember anything from Dark Shadows because I was so young, but I did like this comic. I've been buying all the Moonstone Kolchak comics for several years, and I'm glad to have this one. One criticism: most of the other comics did a better job of capturing the voice of Kolchak's narration. This issue's narration was a little long-winded at times. Still, this is a good comic!

I haven't read the second story yet. I'll do that tonight.
