DISCLAIMER - Collinwood is a very nice, pictureseque town. I really enjoyed my visit there. The remarks I've included with the following pictures are not intended to slur, defame or offend the town. My comments are aimed at the fictitious characters who live in a house called Collinwood, in my favorite TV show, Dark Shadows. Dark Shadows is currently airing in re-runs on the Sci-Fi channel from 10-11 am Central.
VictoriaW's visit to Collinwood!!
Recently, my mother came to visit, and we decided to take a little trip to Collinwood. It was really a lovely trip. Collinwood is a small town, in southwestern Tennessee, with a population of 1014. We spent some time traveling around the town, and took pictures of several sights that I thought my Dark Shadows friends might like to see. Please join me, as I take you on a tour of Collinwood.
"My name is Victoria Winters. My journey is beginning, a journey that I hope will open the doors of life to me, and 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 Widow's Hill . . . a house called, "Collinwood". A world I've never known, with people I've never met. People who tonight, are still only shadows in my mind, but who will soon fill the days and nights of my tomorrows." - Victoria Winters

I don't suppose Liz has been down to the post office in a long, long time. Did they ever get any mail on the show? I seem to remember mail being sorted through. Did they have to go to the post office to pick up their mail, or did they have a mail carrier deliver it?

Hmm, wonder who owns this? Wonder if it's a family business, run by the Blair siblings?
<==
I wonder if the Collins' have any ownership in the local bank? They don't mention it, but we don't know a lot about what they do have holdings in.

This looks like it might have been a good place for Doctor Woodard's office, before his untimely demise, don't you think?

Wonder if this is the place where Barn goes to have his fangs sharpened?
<==
Everyone needs a good water supply. Even if they don't seem to have any indoor plumbing.

You know you're really addicted to Dark Shadows when you name your children after characters from the show. Meet my kids, Victoria and Christopher on their web pages, go to my personal page, or return to my main Dark Shadows page.
