Well if it’ll make you feel better, here’s a bit of memorabilia unearthed (heh) for you: the Dark Shadows board game.
He did an excellent job, too! Even when we were young sheltered girl-fans, we were aware of this, as mad about Barnabas as we were. He lacked a certain…something…he gave off the same gay vibe as Vincent Price who was hamming it up in the movies at about the same time. Mr. Spock - now he had possibilities and could be - and was - seduced by a woman or two! But Barnabas? Maybe he’d bite your neck but if he dragged you off to the crypt, you’d be forced to listen to Shakespearean meanderings, maybe offered a glass of madeira, and that would be IT.
*Thank *you! I was afraid I had made that up in my tiny mind! I have to say I really admire how both actors recovered and sailed right along.
It used to be fun to watch when they’d forget their lines and look at each other with blank faces!

I would never have expected Frid to be that fit looking.
Dark Shadows is currently available on Netflix streaming. I watched it 45 years ago with my Mother, but I don’t think I’d ever seen it since the beginning.
You won’t from Netflix now either - it starts with the introduction of Barnabas, which is not the beginning of the show.

My mother would not allow us to watch Dark Shadows, so I think I’ve seen all of four episodes in my life, all at my across-the-street-neighbor’s house on rainy afternoons. I’m really deprived.
Ditto. RIP, Barnabas … that is, if you really are dead.
