Dark Shadows debuted June 27, 1966 on ABC-TV as the first daytime drama styled in the tradition of a Gothic novel. The show was the dream of producer Dan Curtis, who brought an exciting new format to the weekday schedule of standard fare soap operas. The pages in the volume feature images shot in black-and-white, spanning the series’ earliest days – before ghosts and vampires, when Dark Shadows most closely resembled a 1940s noir film – through its final episodes. As the series took a more fanciful direction, many of the plots retained an underlying tension and tone faithful  to its origins, serving up a special hybrid... Dark Shadows NOIR.    Featuring 256 pages, DARK SHADOWS NOIR features stunning full-page mono-chromatic images from the legendary television program, including dozens of previously  unseen images from the archive of \"Dark Shadows\" creator Dan Curtis Productions.    For 1,225 episodes, \"Dark Shadows\" thrilled over 20 million viewers during its five-year run with imaginative stories devoted to hidden mysteries, lost loves, time travel and  supernatural characters. Late creator-executive producer Dan Curtis drew upon classic mystery, horror and romance tales ranging from \"Jane Eyre\" and \"The Crucible\" to \"Wuthering Heights\" to \"Turn of the Screw\" to enthrall captivated audiences.   The ground-break sets, elaborate costumes and atmospheric lighting depicted on the series will be on stunning display in DARK SHADOWS NOIR with all images scanned in high resolution from original 35mm negatives and vintage fiber prints for rich CMYK reproduction of superior quality.    DARK SHADOWS NOIR will serve as the ultimate souvenir for the 60th anniversary of \"Dark Shadows\" which continues to remain extremely popular via streaming services,televised reruns, DVD and BluRay releases, new merchandising and fan conventions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWritten by:  \u003c\/b\u003eGreg Smallwood, Melissa Flores, Ann Nocenti\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtist by:  \u003c\/b\u003ePhoto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCover Artist by:  \u003c\/b\u003e Malachi Ward\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Hermes Press","offers":[{"title":"Approx.
