Scenic Designer Sy Tomashoff was instrumental in creating the look for Dark Shadows. From the Collinwood Foyer and Drawing Room, to the Old House, to the Collins Mausoleum, and the Blue Whale, Sy’s iconic sets and innovative designs were integral to establishing and perpetuating the feel and mood of the series. For the first time, Sy’s career, with a special focus on Dark Shadows, is spotlighted in the upcoming book, Sy Tomashoff: Dark Shadows by Design by Patty Karapinar. Patty, a respected and skilled architect, offers unique insights into Sy Tomashoff’s work in a meticulously researched book that includes blueprints, artwork, photos, and interviews.

Although Dark Shadows was a supernatural Gothic drama, there were several characters who displayed humorous traits throughout the series. From the outrageous Carl Collins and Pansy Faye to the eccentric Eagle Hill Cemetery caretaker and the put-upon Mrs. Johnson, this episode takes a look at the lighter side of Dark Shadows. Returning to the podcast to discuss these amusing character moments is entertainer and groovy Austin Powers tribute artist, Richard Halpern. In addition to our main discussion, we talk about Richard’s experiences as emcee at the Dark Shadows Festivals, Baby Dark Shadows, the Collinsport Players, his recent Austin Powers adventures, and much more!Terror at Collinwood and Shilling Shockers shirts, stickers, mugs, and merch at the Penny Dreadful XIII TeePublic shopHelp support the podcast by donating at Buy Me a CoffeeFollow the Terror at CollinwoodFACEBOOK PAGEDark Shadows 60th Anniversary Celebration Jul. 31-Aug. 2, 2026 - EVENTBRITE TICKETS LINKDark Shadows 60th Anniversary Celebration Jul. 31-Aug. 2, 2026 – HOTEL RESERVATIONS LINKAustin Powers Impersonator InstagramRichard Halpern Austin Powers FacebookAustin Powers Clone on YoutubeBaby Dark Shadows on YouTubeMonstahXpo Website and TicketsMonsterama Website and TicketsGeorge Kalogridis YouTube Channel (DS AI animations)Surfing the Shadows surf rock cover of Robert Cobert’s Dark Shadows theme by Johnny D & The MoonlightersTaC logos by Eric MarshallPenny Dreadful’s Shilling ShockersEtsy shopDownload or listen to the AUDIO version below.

Scott Young is a producer, writer, director and Dark Shadows fan who attempted to pitch a Dark Shadows TV reunion movie in the 1980s. Despite support from several of the original series’ writers and cast members, the Return to Collinwood pitch was not greenlit.

Scott visits the podcast to offer some insights into his proposals for a new DS. In addition, Scott discusses his involvement with the DS fandom going all the way back to his days volunteering at ShadowCon in the 1970s as well as assisting with the Original Music from Dark Shadows Volume 2album.
