The year is 1972, yet the shadows of the past cling to Collinsport. Ninety-six years after his burial, Barnabas Collins was unearthed by careless workers, leaving a trail of death in his wake. Cursed with vampirism, he has sworn never to harm a soul bearing the Collins name. He believed his only child was dead, until reports of another grave robbery reached him. Now, he stands before the old manor, his gaze falling upon a figure approaching: pale, with pointed ears and terrifying fangs. It is his child, corrupted by the same witch’s curse. Horror and grief war within him as he steps forward, the wind whipping around the decaying estate.
