Upset over the death of Ernest Collins, Victoria begins to believe that phantoms are haunting her. Are they figments of her imagination? As the threats to her life become very real, she is forced to accept the horrifying truth. The strange figures are not phantoms, but the bodies of Derek and Esther Collins, murdered more than a century ago. They were unwittingly released from their coffins by a shaft of moonlight - and doomed to roam the earth as “the living dead”.

The islanders are living in fear, and the Doctor vows to save them all.

Although Scott Carey doesn’t look any different, he’s been steadily losing weight. There are a couple of other odd things, too. He weighs the same in his clothes and out of them, no matter how heavy they are. Scott doesn’t want to be poked and prodded. He mostly just wants someone else to know, and he trusts Doctor Bob Ellis. In the small town of Castle Rock, the setting of many of King’s most iconic stories, Scott is engaged in a low-grade - but escalating - battle with the lesbians next door whose dog regularly drops his business on Scott’s lawn. One of the women is friendly; the other, cold as ice.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Publisher's Summary
In The Salem Branch, Barnabas Collins, the vampire hero of the series, has recently become a human again through the efforts of his devoted descendent, Dr. Julia Hoffman, and is living in current-day Collinsport, Maine, trying to adjust to normal life. Although engaged to marry Dr. Hoffman, he falls in love with a mysterious woman named Antoinette who has bought the ruins of "the old house" on the Collins estate and is restoring it while living with a band of hippies in the woods. Antoinette settled in the area because her daughter is being treated in a nearby mental hospital. Her daughter suffers from flashbacks to her previous incarnation as Miranda du Val, who was burned as a witch in the Salem witch trials. One of the judges who condemned her to death was a Collins - Barnabas' ancestor. Barnabas is desperate to win Antoinette's love and to protect her and her daughter from the new vampire that he suspects is attacking the inhabitants of Collinsport.

Supernatural romance of the highest order!
As a one of the many kids 'who ran home from school to watch "Dark Shadows",' I was initially hesitant to make the multi-hour commitment of listening to this book. But I am so very glad that I did! Actress Lara Parker (best known as glamorous witch Angelique in the original series) has proven herself a formidable writer in her own right. Prior to this work, I had listened to the abridged version of her novel 'Angelique's Descent' produced as an audio-drama by Big Finish Productions. Truly impressed by that experience, I dove into 'The Salem Branch,' next in Parker's series of 'Dark Shadows' related novels. In a word, this book is extraordinary. Parker powers as a storyteller are considerable and her way with prose remarkable. While a reader new to the 'Dark Shadows' universe can thoroughly enjoy the experience, those familiar with the beloved characters it includes will find their dimensions deeply enhanced. And the bonus of Ms. Parker doing honors as the reader is the delicious icing on this diabolically poignant feast. Not to be missed!
