Dark Shadows: 6

"The top of Widows' Hill is a strange and lonely place, and the great hulk of Collinwood sits like a sleeping monster on its crest. I know I should leave and yet I can't, not as long as I feel the answers I've been looking for might be here — here in the darkness and the dust of hidden years. Surrounded by the ghosts of the past and the fears of the present, I've decided to search and hope and wait."

Episode 6 of Dark Shadows was directed by Lela Swift and written by senior story developer Art Wallace. It first aired on ABC on July 4th, 1966.
