The Dark Shadows Daybook: February 20


By PATRICK McCRAY

Taped on this day in 1968: Episode 436

Pursuing Angelique out of the courtroom, Peter discovers that she may be more than a witch; Angelique may be a witch from beyond the grave. Peter: Roger Davis. (Repeat; 30 min.)

Vicki attempts to convince Peter that Angelique was the witch. Unfortunately, the eyewitness evidence died with Sarah. Their only hope is if Ben Stokes will talk. Meanwhile, Nathan Forbes tries to bribe Ben into admitting that Barnabas never went to England. Ben’s reluctance to do so emboldens Forbes that his suspicions are correct. Peter gets an admission from Ben that Angelique is dead and buried. When they try to exhume the grave, Ben stops Peter when he sees that he’s dug deeper than Angelique was buried, finding nothing. Peter tells Vicki that she must take the stand. Her word is their only ally.

CSI, Collinsport style! If you want to see Ben Stokes wracked with misery and Peter Bradford shouting in desperation, this is the episode for you. Looking ahead, they are only a year away from 1897. What an action packed year that would be. Adam. The Dream Curse. Eve. A trip back to 1897. Nicholas Blair. Werewolves. And a real cure for Barnabas!

These are the good times.

On this day in 1968, tensions between the law and civil protesters heighten as state troopers fire tear gas into a demonstration at Alcorn A&M. 1968 won’t be easy.
