Dark Shadows (1-20 series)
The owner of Collinwood Manor, Barnabas Collins, a rich, power and reputation of being an inveterate Casanova, has not committed the mistake of breaking the heart of Angelique Boshar. Being a witch, in the literal sense of the word, it dooms him to fate worse than death - draws him into a vampire and buries alive. Two centuries later, Barnabas accidentally released from the tomb, and he is in a very changed world of 1972. He returns to Collinwood and finds in the ruins of this once-majestic building. Miserable descendants of his family survived only slightly better family home, and each of them has "skeletons in the closet."
