Created 1960-1975 in an American fantasy/scifi TV series; antagonist but has been protagonist on occasion; appeared in only one movie. White male, last name starts with C, born 1800s.

I was thinking from Dark Shadows, but there have been three movies for that series.

Cogitating…

Oh, wait.

DQ: Are you Quentin Collins?

He wasn’t in House of Dark Shadows or the Johnny Depp one, but he was in Night of Dark Shadows, if I remember correctly.

1961-1974 – neither '60 nor '75 is possible.

You do. I am werewolf Quentin Collins, protagonist of Night of Dark Shadows but often an antagonist in the TV series.
Your move, Prof… :smiley:
