Vampire Barnabas Collins is inadvertently freed from his tomb and emerges into the very changed world of 1972. He returns to Collinwood Manor to find that his once-grand estate and family have fallen into ruin.
Editor's Verdict
"The movie 'Dark Shadows' (2012) is a Gothic comedy/fantasy centered around a vampire adjusting to the 1970s. There are no indications within the provided plot description or standard knowledge of the film that Christmas plays any meaningful role in the setting, plot, themes, or resolution."
