The Demon of Barnabas Collins (April 1969)
The arrival of a movie company at Collinwood gives Barnabas a chance to escape Angelique's awful curse--the curse which has made him one of the living dead.
Barnabas meets and falls in love with beautiful film star, Rita Glenn. In order to save him, she introduces him to the mysterious Dr. Moreno who has a cure for Barnabas.
> This is the first book to present Barnabas in a heroic vein rather than as the villain, following the trend set by the television series.
