This is the second full-length motion picture feature based on the popular television soap-opera/horror melodrama Dark Shadows. The first film was House of Dark Shadows.

It is interesting to note that the film uses the mansion of 1890s railroad robber/baron Jay Gould for its setting. Clarke Fountain, Rovi
