{{quote|''My name is [[The Protagonist|Victoria Winters]]. My journey is beginning. A journey that I hope will open the doors of life to me, and [[Rewatch Bonus|link my past with my future]]. A journey that will bring me to a strange and dark place. To the edge of the sea, high atop Widows' Hill. A house called [[Haunted House|Collinwood]]. A world I've never known, with people I've never met.

'''''Dark Shadows''''' was a [[Soap Opera]] which ran on ABC from 1966 to 1971. While the show did have Gothic themes, it was not until six months into the first season when it gained notoriety by [[Genre Shift|introducing]] overtly [[Supernatural Soap Opera|supernatural elements]].
Though many soaps have since flirted with plots involving ghosts and psychic energy, ''Dark Shadows'' used almost every [[Monster Mash|classic horror element]] (vampires, werewolves, zombies, magic users) as well as sci-fi tropes like [[Time Travel]] and alternate dimensions.
