Hermes Press presents an original graphic novel adding a new chapter to the classic vampire/gothic romance universe of Dark Shadows — The Curse of Dark Shadows with a spell-binding script by Craig Hurd-Mckinney and artwork by Jok. This 192 page color graphic novel presents a tale of drama and suspense: Carolyn Stoddard-Hawkes made a deathbed promise to her mother. But, in order for Carolyn to complete that promise, she must rely on the one person in the world she doesn’t want to see: vampire Barnabas Collins. His return home after an extended period away sets in motion a chain of events that will change the Collins family forever. Can Carolyn and her cousin David survive the newly-awakened Curse of Dark Shadows, or will Barnabas be the end of the family line? Also included are documentary content with art and supplemental materials and four pages of all new character portraits by Curse of Dark Shadows artist, Jok. —John Logan, Playwright Screenwriter and Creator of PENNY DREADFUL after reading this new chapter in the Dark Shadows saga observed: “If you, like me, long for more adventures at Collinwood and with your Dark Shadows friends, look no further. CURSE OF DARK SHADOWS is modern, sexy, scary and, most of all, thoroughly Dark Shadows.”
