On this day in horror history.... something different happened. As a television show premiered, that mixed a soap opera with vampires. 'Dark Shadows' creeps way onto television. Paving the way for some many other horror based dramas, it lasted for 6 years and 1248 episodes, before finally going off the air. It's continued to be a cult favorite and was recently remade into a film adaptation with Johnny Depp and Tim Burton. Sadly, they didn't seem to get what the original show was about or what made it work.
