Believe it or not, this is a model


Night over the great estate of Collinwood, a night different from all others, for Collinwood is deserted except for the evil spirits who freely roam the halls, still obsessed by the children who are a key to the ghost's mysterious actions. 

And all of it can be yours for $2,400!

The photo at the top of this post is a model created by John M. Stewart, based on the real-life Collinwood, Seaview Terrace in Newport, Rhode Island. It's an amazingly detailed model that stands 17" high, and provides the kind of thorough inspection of the grounds that DARK SHADOWS never allowed. I've included a few photos of the model below, but you can find a better assortment over at the artist's website, which will give some of the best views of the mansion you're ever going to get.

Plus, there's a lot more to see at both his website and his Facebook page. Completed late last year, Collinwood was followed in quick succession in his Facebook feed by models of Bates Motel from PSYCHO and the MacNeil home from THE EXORCIST. The range of subjects in Stewart's art is staggering, hitting such divergent films as HOWARD THE DUCK,  HALLOWEEN and FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH.

Stewart is offering commissions of his sprawling model of Collinwood for $2,400. Here's where you can find Stewart online:
