Victoria Winters, by Marilyn Ross (PB, 1968, $0.50)
(Trivia: Which Charlie's Angels actor had a role in Dark Shadows?)
How many of you out there remember the vampire TV soap opera, Dark Shadows? Maybe there are more of us out there than I suppose. When I was in junior high, I always got home in time to watch the adventures of Barnabas Collins, a vampire, and Quentin Collins, a werewolf. There was even occasionally a ghost or two, which makes me think of the current TV show, Being Human, except instead of living together in a NYC brownstone, the Collins live together in a Gothic mansion somewhere on the New England coast. Remember that creepy music where the stormy waves crash onto the rocky shore. Who wrote that music? I still get creeps just remembering it!
In this novel, "Victoria is stalked by four menacing strangers through the grave-like halls of sinister Collins House." Oh my!
Look for this book in the PB fiction section, avail. 3/16.
(Answer: Kate Jackson played a silent ghost.)
