Night of Dark Shadows was the final original Dark Shadows production, a feature film produced on location in Tarrytown shortly after the daytime series wrapped in 1971.

Thanks to the generosity of Darren Gross, we are delighted to present a selection of newly-discovered publicity stills, some never before published. With candid behind-the-scenes shots along with images from deleted scenes, they represent a fascinating glimpse of the original cast at work and play.

Many fans will know that the film suffered a last minute editing session, losing many crucial sequences for its original release. The campaign to restore Night of Dark Shadows to its intended theatrical length is an ongoing concern, following a major discovery of excised footage in 1999. Follow the project's latest developments by visiting its official website at www.nightofdarkshadows.com.
