The tall, gaunt, figure grabbed his cane in his right, pale, hand.
He walked along the shadowy darkness of the arched walls of Collinsport. He stopped at the black letters that were on the front door.
It read in italics:
COLLINWOOD MANOR
He wore a black coat, black breeches, and black colored boots on his feet. On his right, middle finger, was a red vampiric ring.
I heard the loud tapping on the front door.
"Someone's here!", I uttered.
"Victoria...", Caroline uttered.
And, when they saw the strange looking Vampire, they shivered.
"Who are you?", Victoria Winters asked, "...Elizabeth isn't here".
"M'Lady, I'm Barnabas Collins, son of Jeremiah Collins, and Naomi Collins. As you know, we didn't build this Manor in Collinsport; we build it under the name of Collinwood. It seems so many centuries have passed since them. May I come in? Others are also waiting".
"Yes, you may?", I shivered.
Then we saw Willie Loomis.
"Good evening", he stated.
He was now Barnabas Collins' new servant.

"Victoria, Caroline. What's going on?", Elizabeth Collins Stoddard asked. She wore a black dress; she glided through the foyer of the Manor, turned left, then headed to the door.
She begun to shudder when she she noticed Barnabas Collins.

"How did they break free of their graves? I demand answers...now!", Roger Collins shouted. He grabbed the dead body of Willie by his right hand; he grabbed his throat with his left hand, and attempted to force him to speak, only for him to see that he was gone.
Barnabas bared his fangs.
"He is my servant! No other Collins family member shall kill him again. He won't awake for several nights".
And he glided down the eerie hallway, and admired the framed portrait of himself.
