Terror at Collinwood Episode 138: Montague Summers and DS with John F. Wirenius

Montague Summers collected nightmarish legends from around the world that have become movie and fiction fodder--vampires, the werewolf, and witchcraft. Novelist and lawyer John F. Wirenius visits the podcast to discuss his new biography of the clergyman and curator of the macabre. The book includes a chapter on Dark Shadows, (super)naturally. Along the way, John talks about his fandom for Dark Shadows and touches upon Summers' influence on Gothic cinema and television.

Terror at Collinwood Episode 62: Witches, Warlocks, and Mages of DS with Laramie Dean

With their magic spells, curses, and arcane incantations, the witches, warlocks, and mages of Dark Shadows certainly left a strong and lasting impression upon fans of the show. One of those fans is Laramie Dean, a talented novelist (Black Forest) and playwright (Frankenstein Among the Dead, Dracula, The Gorgon Sisters). The delightful Laramie pays a visit to the podcast for a spirited discussion about Angelique, Nicholas, Judah, Bathia, Petofi, and other wielders of magic in the DS universe. The episode also includes: a geeky side lecture on the depiction of witches in horror films, and a substantial DS opening news segment that includes info about new books, appearances, podcasts, and more! The show ends with shoutouts to several Dark Shadows and DS-adjacent podcasts! ALSO: get thee to the Blue Whale jukebox and dig the terrifyingly tubular new surf rock version of the DS theme song, ‘Surfing the Shadows’, performed by Johnny D & The Moonlighters! It also happens to be the new opening theme for Terror at Collinwood!
