House of Dark Shadows

House of Dark Shadows unleashes the 200-year-old vampire Barnabas Collins on his unsuspecting family and their neighbors. Released from his crypt by an inebriated groundskeeper, the undead Barnabas falls for a family governess who bears an uncanny resemblance to his long-lost love. Fangs flash and blood flows as the Collins family’s darkest secret are exposed in this 1970s cult classic based on the popular gothic soap opera Dark Shadows.

The movie was filmed on location in Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow. The Lyndhurst estate served as the fictional Collinwood mansion, ancestral home of the Collins family and its super- natural intruders. Sleepy Hollow Cemetery’s receiving vault appeared as the crypt of Barnabas Collins.
