- Barnabas Collins the vampire is immortal. Barnabas Collins the character created by Jonathan Frid is immortal.
Rex mortuus est; vivat rex.
Note: This video consists of two parts. The music video portion is followed by a compelling scene between Barnabas and his father (scenes edited and combined from episodes 446 & 447. At 8:22 a vocal is imported from another scene to abridge the storytelling. The final scene as it appeared in the original series cut to Joshua's shocked expression; here I've edited the clip to remain on Barnabas's face).
I am seeing this 50 years later and it is as entertaining as it was in the 60's. I used to rush home from school to watch Dark Shadows.
I have the series on DVD and still watch it. Barnabas is my favorite actor
He was so talented, the most famous vampire
I watched EVERY single episode of Dark Shadows years ago...I LOVE this SHOW....my favorite show of all time
That entire scene with Louis Edmonds and Jonathan Frid gives me chills. It is so good. Just perfect. So wonderfully acted.
One of the top scenes of all time.
@@brianjacob8728 When Barnabas says "Because I am a vampire"..I think I gasped louder than Joshua. It was an amazing scene!!
@@budderkupp1282 YES YES wow that particular scene was the entire show.
@@Barnee1897 Barnabas and Angelique are enemies in the show?
Barnabas had a way of drawing sympathy. The best played vampire I've seen.
Well, he was fascinating largely due to his magnificent voice and gloomy aura; as a kid we really DID run home from school to catch D.S. at 4!
I WAS 7 AND DARTED PASS BUSES RAN EVERY LIGHT ... SO AS NOT TO MISS A MOMENT MYSELF .....
THANK GOODNESS I WAS FAST ON MY FEET ..LOL
@@markanthonymarla I was 11 yrs old..madly in love with Barnabas and..had his pics plastered all over my bedroom. I had to walk a mile home from school every day to get to my Dark Shadows. I ran home..did it in about 8 mins. LOL.
@@budderkupp1282 - Barnabas was never really cruel !!! ..but if you crossed him he was vengeful to a fault ...lol .... i loved the story line .... and waited to see all the gloomy scenes and perfect annunciations made by Barnabas ...I love That cultured slightly British accent .... :)
@@markanthonymarla Oh yes..I too..loved ALL the characteristics of Barnabas..the sympathetic vampire. And..my favorite story line was when..they first went back in time..before Barnabas became a vampire.
we would run home also.
He does play "between the poles" of character and does it better than anyone! His expressive eyes... oh my! He makes Barnabas a beautiful man in spite of the curse! He evokes such exquisite pathos!
I could just melt in those hypnotic eyes. 😏😍
I love everything about this show, the time period, acting, scenes, music and other elements that I am sure were and are beautifully magical.
I have loved the show since it's beginning. Johnathon Frid was the perfect actor for this and the Angelique charactor was so beautifully played.
I've seen pretty much all vampire shows and movies in existence, and compared to JF, everyone who tries to play a vampire sucks. Yes, that includes otherwise great actors like Oldman and Lugosi.
JF didn't even need make-up. Just his expressions, eyes and voice. He is a legend.
How did I miss this gem! Excellent
This is an outstanding compilation. Thanks for making my day.
EVERY bit of this video is FANTASTIC. THANK YOU !!!!!
Frid was really good.
the most beautiful man ever made for this role .. he is perfect,,,can u say a man is beautiful? talented & his voice he didn't as bela Lugosi straight vamp he have barnabas a dimensions
+Lisa Keller gave,,, I wish I had been around to see the true shakesperian acting
+Lisa Keller Yes, he is beautiful. ;)
+Lisa Keller it is nice that in the tv show they could stretch & imagine & go out of the normal I still prefer this to most of the garbage of today
He has the dreamy eyes, the cheekbones, manly mouth and nose, who else can wear spiked bangs and look so hot?
Way before my time but i recently have gotten into dark shadows. I can see why women loved him? He is so intriguing and yes he will always remain beautiful ❤️
He was the perfect actor to play Barnabas
I think this show was the best :-)

just as in "Dark Shadows" Jonathan Frid lives on forever
I enjoyed watching "The Jonathan Frid Story" that was made last year.
It's so sad that Jonathan Frid is no longer with us, but at least we have the consolation that through Barnabas and Dark Shadows he is immortal.
This was a brilliant tribute to an excellent actor, you've done a fantastic job here I loved it, well done.
I really enjoyed this video , Patricia !! Specially the part that his father discovers he is a vampire !! Those scenes are so thrilling and very emotional !! It's a pleausure to see such a great actors like Jonathan Frid and Louis Edmonds performing these dramatic scenes !!
+Mariana Hernández Could be wrong but I heard somewhere that both Frid and Edmonds were Shakespearean actors. If so, it truly shows
+Cells Doni Cells, it is indeed true that Jonathan was a classically trained Shakespearean actor. Browse for "Jonathan Frid Shakespeare" and you'll find some images and videos of him. He trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in London. Thank you for viewing!
Mariana Hernández Wow the acting chops really came out in the scene with Barnabas and Joshua.
PatriciaArcana1 Very welcome and thanks for uploading!!!
One of my absolute favorites! Great job! "How can you kill someone who is already dead?"😂😂😂
>ttdid`not&itmyhearthowyoukillsomeonewhoisalreadydeed.
Awesome montage!!! Well done! :)
Fantastic!! I watched this show as a kid and now am in the process of re-watching it from the 1st episode Barnabas was in. I am about half way thru them and I've fallen in love with him all over again! Thank you so much for making this video. It looks like some great things coming up in the series for me to look forward to. This is a fantastic video you have done for us to get our daily Barnabas fix! :)
This is awesome video I love all these clips thanks for making this downloading it
Even though Frankenstein’s Monster (Boris Karloff’s version) got me into the horror genre, Barnabas Collins (Jonathan Frid’s version, particularly during the soap opera’s 1970 Parallel Time storyline and House of Dark Shadows) made me absolutely love everything the horror genre had to offer during the golden age of Hollywood. Long live Dark Shadows 🎃
Thank you for this Patricia, this is truly outstanding!! I grew up watching Dark Shadows, and til this day, I still have nightmares, about Barnabas Collins coming after me :P .. When Mr. Frid was alive, I posted that on his website, and I got a reply :D .. He thanked me for being a loyal fan of DS .. It fascinates me so much, how much Dark Shadows has in common, with "Brahm Stokers Dracula" Gary Oldman, who by the way, gave a stellar performance of Dracula!! He wanted to be reunited with his wife Elizabeta, who threw herself off the castle wall and died .. Barnabas, wanted to be reunited with Josette, who threw herself off of widows hill .. You know the rest of the story :))
It surely must have been a different experience from a child's perspective, I can only imagine, and no laugh track as with The Munsters.
How special to receive a reply from Mr. Frid! I got an autographed photo from him, personally inscribed to "Patricia." I'll always treasure it.
It's conceivable that "Bram Stoker's Dracula" borrowed some ideas from DS. If Tim Burton was influenced by DS, I'm sure other producer/directors were too. After all, like you, they ran home from school to watch Dark Shadows. Thanks for the compliment, jamminjoe44, and taking the time to leave a comment. Please share and spread the word about the original Dark Shadows to the uninitiated. :[
+PatriciaArcana1 u are 1 fortunate lady
No, the film 1992 about Dracula🧛♂️was based on this TV series.
Dan Curtis showed us a Dracula's story in 1973 year.
But there was no Mina, but Lucy was reincarnation of his beloved, Elisabeth.
WOW! Your Barnabas videos are absolutely the BEST on RUclips Patricia! This one..."Beauty"...and "Barnabas in Love, Bramwell in Love" are exceptional. Thank you so very much for your hard work and perfection.
WOW, right back at you, Bansky Girl--what a nice compliment! I'm so happy you like my video remixes. I've tried to encapsulate the over 1,000 hours of DS episodes into bite-size samplers as an introduction to the uninitiated. I hope they entice more people into the family. Thanks for visiting my channel!
Yes. Oh so enjoyable.
I was a member of his fan club I remember I had asked for a picture with his ring on his finger and one holding his cane when I received them my mother was so scared she made me burn them, I was really heartbroken, I still laugh up to today, I had love him in dark shadows, keep up your good works ❤❤❤❤
best vampire ever!!
Thanks for this video. I'm waiting for Netflix to add more. It is so frustrating not to be able to watch them all together. Thanks again.
Jonathan was a treasure who is missed.
Such a powerful performance, pathos, passion, and the word noone wanted to face, "VAMPIRE ". So tragically beautiful and monstrous, poetic and gruesome with perfect inflection and diction. Mesmerizing performance! Bravo!!
They went about trying to kill him all wrong. Just wait til about noon or 1 o'clock in the afternoon, get a few men to help carry his coffin (with Barnabas sleeping inside) out into the sun, the open the coffin! Barnabas is toast!
He was, joclouise1, but not just a pretty face. The clip included as the second part of the video shows what a tour-de-force actor he was. He had to learn a new script and formulate how he was going to play it before the next day's taping. He did this day after day for four years!
He's my #2 favorite Vamp!! I love the tortured soul Vamps!!
How dare anybody try to kill my Barnabus!!!❤
Barnabas. Not Barnabus
I know!!!!
I just wish more of Frid's work had been recorded... Fools and Feinds, Arsenic and Old Lace...
Come, come, now. Let's not be bashful in our unabashed praise: JOHNATHAN FRID HAS SUPPLANTED THE GREAT BELA LAGOSI AS THE QUINTESSENTIAL GOTHIC VAMPIRE, HANDS DOWN, AND PALMS-UP!!!
Can there be any doubt? Any hesitation? Any flirtation with the notion that any other actor of any generation could hold a candle to our magnificent Johnathan? It is, quite simply, and I might add - unequivocally, IMPOSSIBLE! There's no accolade sufficient. There are no comparisons. It is, after all is said and done, Frid and Frid alone who was able to give his monster infinite facets and incomprehensible dimensions! The entire series, the entire DS enterprise, was built on the solid as a rock foundation of this one man alone. He stands alone in the eternal spotlight! His performance is etched into the marble monuments of the immortals as surely as it is carved into the hearts and minds of all of us who have or ever will be fortunate enough to bask in the glory of his performance.
Boy, how I love this scene of "Wm. F. Loomis (PT)", when he absent-mindedly forgets he's in the presence of something worse than a viper, while he's ambitiously distrated plagerizing in the vampire's remininces, hoping to produce his supposed next "best-seller", which will never happen! This scene harkens back to the original profile of Willie as an a convining, amoral, dumb and desparate opportunist-petty theif, before Barney turned him into the "Renfield"-like sniveling, frightened vassal to the former, who's only saving "grace" was his love of, and fear for the saftey of "Maggie Eavans". I suppose the 'cowardly vassal' was a 'step-up' for Willie
Ah. Yessir; they don't write them like that anymore!!!
Dark Shadows is a very cool show. I totally love it. It also lifts up my acting spirit.
Geez, I wonder if anyone saved that prop "pop-gun"? It would be worth a small fortune today! And Roger Davis: I didn't know he could do "looking-crazy" so well!!
Love the scene with Reverend Trask. The villains face off...
¡Fenómeno!, ¡genio!, ¡hermoso, sí, por supuesto, todo un artista!. Yo solía ver esa serie, en esa época, no me perdía un solo capítulo. Ahora, añoro. Fueron otros tiempos, insuperables.
Love the cheesy sound effects for the guns
That's very kind of you, Linda. The churchy music was selected because of the repeated images of the cross (see also Millicent's cruciform silhouette at 4:05).
This concludes my "Jonathan Frid Is..." series, at least for now. It is hoped that this trilogy gives a broad introduction to people unfamiliar with the TV show, who because of the 2012 movie are curious about the original DS.
rpetty50, thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I'm glad you enjoyed this Barnabas sampler and hope that this video and others of mine that you may have watched haven't been "spoilers" for you. (There are many people who won't be able to watch the entire show.) Savor the rest of the series; the end will come all too soon!
I both loved this show & miss it terribly! Fortunately, I have the movie based on that show!
Which movie, Frederica? "House of Dark Shadows" or the Burton-Depp movie?
Superb! I see for the first time 😲 Jonathan Frid and the cast were excellent! 😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍😄
I Enjoyed this video of Jonathan Frid As Barnabas Collins Patricia I was and Still am a Dark Shadows Fan !
Great Scenes between Him and Others including his Father Discovering He's a Vampire!
Great job on this video. I wish someone would put the shows after 532/533 on you tube where you don't have to pay for them. I cannot find them for free anywhere.
I found episodes up to 631 on Hulu.
Try tubitv.com, to find the DShadows episodes they have the seasons listed. I don't know if they have 532/533 though, but it is free.
Ms. L. Churchill
2:53 one of the creepiest moments of the show in my opinion.
barnabas had more lead in him than a pencil.
Just great Patricia :-). Really enjoyed this, music was perfect too.
To paraphraze Eddie Murphy's vampire character to Barney Collins predicament: I have been shot, stabbed, burned, and buried alive; But Barney has never been hanged! Ooops, I think ol' Dan Curtis missed a great opportunity!!!
+Atomank68 No, Eddie's character was never shot before until that time.
I'm glad you found it, snapshot54f. Thank you for both of your comments. Tell all your friends about Jonathan Frid if they don't know who he is!
Patricia Arcanal you must be a Dark shadows fan like myself. JOHNATHAN FRID deserves a star 💫 because he is just as important as the other Hollywood actors and actresses.
I loved the Dark Shadows TV Show...the Johnny Depp movie was a JOKE
Why was it a joke?
agreed. I won't taint my memories by watching that abomination of a movie, which is yet another film where Depp has comically overdone make-up.
There is only one real dark shadows, and only one Barnabas Collins. It cannot be redone.
Yes it was
@@Amphitera ---thank you, only ONE D.S. only one Barnabas Collins. Nobody can be Barnabas again, his quiet, almost humble demeanor yet always a threat if he wanted to be.
Sorry but Johnnie Depp could not hold a candle to Johnathon Frid.
Barnabas.was.the.coolest.vampire.i.ever.saw
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Sandra. This is just another "sampler" of how captivating Jonathan Frid was. Like the final basement scene included here, there were so many compelling moments in the hundreds of episodes.
More music by the same artist(s), Nox Arcana, can be heard on my video: 1LUA0se0A5g
Please can you upload all the episodes?
cool
I wasn't around when Dark Shadows was a hit since I was born in 2003, but my God, I could just melt into Barnabas's arms. No need for him to hypnotize me. Of course, he'd end up biting me, but I wouldn't fight it. He fed off of me in a dream I had around my 18th birthday. What happened was I was laying in bed, asleep, when I woke up in the dream, then there he was, standing over me in the dark. Barnabas stared at me for a moment before baring his fangs and biting my neck. I actually felt the pressure of his fangs where he bit me in the dream. The dream was almost like a scene from a Chistopher Lee "Dracula" movie.
Great video I love it the music is amazing what's the name of the song does anyone know
Thank you! The song is "Noctem Aeternus," by Nox Arcana. Music is always credited at the end of my video compilations.
6:40...is something wrong, Reverend? Beautiful.
Thank you, Nancy. But then aything with Jonathan Frid in it is great.
You're welcome, judiescof, and I agree that Mr. Frid was a treasure. It's our loss that much of his career wasn't recorded. While you're waiting, there are countless other fan compilations on RUclips to enjoy as "appetizers"!
Thanks Patricia, your video is marvelous and also the music you chose to match it. Besides it has a lot of scenes I had never seen before.
Although I suppose it may be took a lot of time and work I hope you never stop of doing your wonderful creations.
I just really love the dark shadows
As I've said before, when Barnabas became a media sensation in around '67 or '68, something you'd never notice now--he was the first grown man I'd ever seen with bangs. It was in fact a kind of "Mod" haircut and I thought it was utterly cool and he looked very dangerous.
The acting was magnificent
I am a new comer to Dark Shadows, but that was some powerful acting right there!
I so enjoyed this tv program.
Boy, it seems that the theme of "Kill Barnabas", by his many would be enemies, friends, and lovers never seemed to get old on the series. But I do wonder how many times that the vampire had to chnge wardrobe, as his suits and coats were utterly ruined by bullet-holes, knive tearings, fire, etc. never mind the bloodstains on his suits and collar;
("Oh! So, Batnabas, [says any inserted "DK" paramour], you claim you were out all night 'drinkin' and carousin' with your friends, Bella, Vaney, Alnicard, and Quentin.
If, so, then what is that red stain on your collar? And don't give me that crap that the hussy Anglique has joined your 'wine-sipping' buddy clique")!!!
A little "Dark" humor for the countless "Shadow(y)" fans out there in the ether!!!
I slept with a thick scarf round my neck during THOES days . We'd run from bus stop to watch them all. We were terrified but enthralled.
Dark Shadows - Remarkable communication, it taught me a lot, and apparent true reflection of the real world's realism, and the natural stillness of the undead. Except for one thing, according to legend, the real vamp may find a mate with undivided love to get fixed up with, to give up the vamp's bloody ways perhaps permanently, and simply live as a normal human but with a more awaken state of being compared to common humans.
Yes that is Barnabas and that is your son one of the undead..You can always turn to you tube for episode's of Dark shadows..I would rather look at Dark shadows in the afternoon than some of the other problems that they have on TV..I still watch Dark shadows today
Wonderful Tribute!
If Ever they play D.S. Series I won't have to Run Home to watch. LOL.
When are people going to learn that the word 'please' means nothing to Barnabas.
nice colaboration
Thanks Patricia, I couldn't post here again but I could now. Only to thank you again.
Love,
Oooo, ooo: The Willian F. Loomis\Parallel-Time story arc. Not enough has been presented of that; must do more, more!!!
love this great job
Poor Barnabas...
Everyone wants to kill🔪him....
It's so poor character in this story. He lost Josette, was cursed and never get rid of this...
yes with the help of dr. Lang.
"Sleep No More; Sleep No More! Trask has 'murdered sleep', and therefore Lacy shall Sleep No More!!!"
Sorry, wasn't able to make the paraphrase more eloquent than that!!!
Nice video, very well put together. The seen where Willie has the cross on, what episode it that? I know it is Will in parallel time but I wanted to watch again and don't remember which episode it is. Thanks for this video, I enjoyed it. :-)
John Herbert Frid Mac Gregor : Nacido en Hamilton de Ontario . Canadá , el 2 - Diciembre - 1924 y nos dejó el 14 - Abril - 2012 , a los 87 años de edad , excelente actor y persona
He was the ultimate vampire! I wanna be like him!
Huh. So, this is the origin of guy liner. Now I know.
Looks great on Him.
Guy liner started in the theater and carried over into silent and early films. It seems fitting that Jonathan, being foremost a stage actor, would wear theatrical makeup on the small screen.
ruclips.net/video/kjQaAK5Vof4/видео.html
He will always be Barnabas Collins!
Music sounds like Phantasm movies
Wasn't it? Which is why it was selected for the climax of the music video portion. Barnabas is so nonchalant and the sparkle in his eye clinches it.
A curse made him a vampire, now, two centuries later, medical science can make him mortal.
Barnabas Collins Rocks Bottom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Y'kow, the thing about actors is that they don't know how to parlay their strengths and opportunities. Take Johnny Frid. He claims to have "suffered" because of type-casting. Yet, as an actor, if he thought about it for one second, he could have used his resume on DK to, perhaps have a recurrring appearance on, say Rod Serling's "Night Gallery". I'm sure it would have played to the mutual benefit of both men. And with all the "horror" genre movie and especially TV then in the 1970s. Ah, well!!!
If he actually claimed to have suffered from being typecast why in the world did he star in Devil's Daughter and Seizure? Although I know much later he enjoyed his one man shows.
what is the name of the music you set this to?
At 11:30 the credits list the music. First music is "Noctem Aeternus" by Nox Arcana; second music is the original music by Robert Cobert.
Frid said; you don't remain friends with people in the acting business you move on, he said he's met hundreds of people but he wished he had stayed in touch with Robert Cobert and his wife.
Seria muy interesante, que alguien que pueda subir toda la serie en español. Qué recuerdos de mi infancia. La daban por el canal 8, la serie la venden completa por Amazon pero totalmente en ingles, ni siquiera trae subtitulos...

Jonathan Frid is the immortal Victorian vampire
Excepcional
At last a Soap you could sink you teeth into!
Hey, no fair. In the orignal scene, when ol' Nicolas Blair is summoned "home", Barnabas observed him being consumed in infernal fire. Barney's ear-to-ear glee has got to be one of the 'Top-Ten' scariest and carpiest (I can't use the idom for 'caliform') sneers in all pop-culure and horror, right up there with with Jack ("here's Johnny") Nicholson, and Wesneday Addams (that Wednesday Addams glee), in the second Addams Family movie!
A video should be made about the the scariest grins-leers, sneers-smiles of famous monsters!!!
