NARRATOR: Nightfall is beginning to obscure

the walls of Collinwood.

On this night, four people are in grave danger.

In the forest of the great estate,

Joe Haskell is searching for the man named Adam,

not knowing he may be courting his own destruction.

And in the old Collins house,

Barnabas Collins and Victoria Winters

are about to face their own separate terrors.

[LOUD KNOCKS]

Vicky, come in.

Barnabas, may I see you for a moment?

Of course.

I'm delighted to see you,

I haven't seen you in several days.

- Please sit down. - Thank you.

I haven't been at Collinwood.

I've been staying with Maggie Evans.

Maggie?

Oh, because of her father's death.

Well, no. Not exactly.

Professor Stokes thought

that I shouldn't stay at Collinwood.

That I'm in danger there.

Danger? From what?

He says if I stay, I'll have the dream.

That Cassandra will make me have it.

Cassandra?

But she's gone. She's disappeared.

Didn't you know?

Know what?

Cassandra's back at Collinwood!

And I'm terrified.

♪♪

[ERRIE THEME MUSIC PLAYING] ♪♪

When did Cassandra return?

A few days ago.

What explanation did she give for her disappearance?

She said that she'd been in Philadelphia.

And Roger believed her. But I didn't.

Cassandra is Angelique. I'm certain of that.

So am I.

And I'm certain that she's only making this dream curse happen

- because she wants to hurt you. - Yes, I know.

Why would she want to harm you, Barnabas?

That's the part I don't understand.

I don't understand either.

Could it be because you look so much like

the first Barnabas Collins?

Possibly.

I can't have that dream!

I've got to find a way of escaping from her.

Well, Vicky, I'm glad you're staying with Maggie Evans.

You'll be safe there.

No, I won't.

What do you mean?

A very frightening thing happened last night.

What?

Maggie saw a ghost in my room.

The ghost of a woman.

Angelique.

It must have been.

She left something there for me.

A bottle of cologne.

When I saw it, I felt compelled to use it.

Until I found out that it wasn't Maggie's.

Then I realized that Angelique must have left it there.

She wanted me to find it and use it.

To induce the dream.

Yes.

Barnabas, I've got to get away from her!

I thought going to Maggie's might be the answer

but it wasn't!

She found me there.

There may be no way of escaping from her.

Sometimes I've thought of going hundreds of miles away

where she couldn't possibly find me.

Couldn't bring myself to do that because--

Because of Jeff Clark?

Yes.

I can't leave him.

Barnabas, I'm sorry.

Please. Don't apologize.

I know how you feel about Jeff and I'm trying to accept it.

I can't leave Jeff.

And I don't want anything to happen to you, either.

I don't know what to do, Barnabas.

I don't know what to do.

[LEAVES RUSTLE]

[THINKING] Barnabas.

Barnabas hurt Adam.

Hate.

k*ll.

[LOUD LEAVES RUSTLING]

Don't move!

- Don't move or I'll sh**t! - No!

You hear what I'm saying you make one false move

and I'll sh**t you.

Don't sh**t.

I won't if I don't have to.

Don't hurt Adam.

No one's gonna hurt you.

We're just going to take a little trip, that's all.

Trip?

Downtown.

To the police station.

Police?

- That's right. Come on! - No!

- I said, come on! - No!

Police hurt Adam!

Adam afraid.

Well, that's just too bad.

I'm not gonna let you get away

after what you did to Sam Evans.

Sam Evans?

Friend! Friend!

Some friend you turned out to be!

Sam's dead on account of you!

Adam hurt friend.

Adam bad. Bad!

All right, I don't want to waste anymore time.

Now get going!

- No! - Get going!

I don't want to have to use this!

No!

Stay back!

g*n! I want g*n.

You think I'm gonna give it to you?

I want g*n.

- Stay back or I'll sh**t! - No!

I'm warning you!

If I sh**t you, I sh**t to k*ll!

No!

Adam k*ll!

[THUD, CRACKS] Argh!

♪♪

Barnabas, I've come to a decision.

What's that?

I'm going to have to go away for a while.

Far enough away so that Cassandra can't find me.

But what about Jeff?

I just have to try and explain it to him

and hope that he'll understand.

You're willing to do this for me?

Barnabas, I don't want to see anything happen to you.

And I want to end this dream curse or whatever it is,

once and for all.

Vicky, I'm very touched by your offer,

more than I can tell,

but I can't let you go through with this.

I can't let you go to a strange city

where you have no family or friends!

I admit I don't want to go, but I--

[LOUD EXPLOSIONS] What's that?

I don't know.

I don't see anyone.

What could be going on?

I'll have to find out. I'll be right back.

All right.

♪♪

ANGELIQUE: Samuel Evans.

Samuel Evans.

You will hear my voice.

You will hear me calling to you.

You will hear me and you will obey.

Appear to me.

Rise from your grave.

Rise from your grave!

Appear to me!

You do hear me.

And you will obey me.

Rise from your grave, Sam Evans.

Appear to me.

Appear to me!

Why did you summon me?

Why did you disturb my rest?

I need you.

There is something you must do for me.

I know you, Cassandra Collins.

I know now what you are.

Then you know the extent of my powers.

And you know that you must obey me.

What do you wish me to do?

Go to Victoria Winters.

Appear to her, wherever she is

and tell her the dream.

- No. - You will obey me.

I cannot.

- You refuse to obey me? - Yes.

Then you shall be punished.

And this shall be your punishment.

You will never return to your grave.

- No! - You will know no peace.

You will roam through the world forever, restlessly,

searching for peace and never finding it,

if I will it to be so.

You do not have that power.

You know that I do!

Your powers don't extend that far.

If you do not believe me then try to return to your grave!

I... I cannot.

Then you know I can prevent you from returning.

And I will.

I will deny you peace throughout eternity.

- Is that what you want? - No.

Then you know that you must obey me.

Go to Victoria Winters.

Tell her the dream.

I command you to tell her the dream!

The dream curse will continue.

And Barnabas, at last,

will meet the fate I have planned for him!

[OMINOUS DRAMATIC MUSIC] ♪♪

SAM: Victoria Winters!

Victoria Winters!

Mister Evans!

I have found you.

But you're dead!

Why are you appearing to me?

I was sent to you to finish what I could not finish in life.

Finish what?

I must tell you the dream.

Cassandra has sent you.

Yes.

She is Angelique, isn't she?

And she's a witch!

I know.

That is how she was able to summon me from my grave.

But she's evil! You mustn't obey her!

Oh, I must.

If I don't, my spirit will never be allowed

to return to the Earth.

I must return.

I cannot roam the face of the Earth forever

in search of peace.

If you tell me the dream, then I'll have it.

And then Barnabas will have it and he'll die!

Perhaps in the case of Barnabas Collins,

death would be a blessing.

What do you mean?

Never mind.

The beginning of the dream is--

- I won't listen! - You must!

I must get away from here.

I will follow you wherever you go.

Please. Please don't tell me the dream.

Please!

- It begins with three knocks on a door! - No, please!

You will be compelled to go to the door.

You will open the door.

Someone will be standing there.

He will summon you to follow him.

The one who beckons you, is Barnabas Collins.

No.

[LEAVES RUSTLING]

You.

ANGELIQUE: Hello, Barnabas.

What are you doing here?

Taking a walk. Isn't that allowed?

Why did you come back to Collinwood?

Because it's my home.

When I heard that you'd disappeared,

I thought, by some miracle,

that you decided to leave me alone.

I should have known better than that.

I don't know what you're talking about as usual.

Listen to me, Angelique.

My name is Cassandra.

Listen to me!

[WHIMPERS] You're hurting me!

You can do whatever you want with me,

but leave Vicky alone,

she's never done anything to you,

you have no reason to harm her!

Now, why should I want to harm Vicky?

Because you are what you are.

Now leave Vicky alone. Do you understand me?

I understand that you are totally mad!

I suggest that we should try to avoid each other

as much as possible, in the future.

That might be a very good idea.

[THINKING] For a moment,

when I first saw him.

I felt a stirring in me.

The love I felt for him once was beginning to return.

I must guard against that feeling.

I must feel nothing but hatred toward Barnabas Collins.

I must concentrate on nothing but vengeance!

I opened the third door, and there was Maggie.

Maggie was in mourning.

She was mourning my death,

but I hadn't died!

I tried to get to her, to comfort her.

But I couldn't. I couldn't!

And I was terrified!

That was the end of my dream.

Why did you have to tell me?

I pity you.

I had to obey the witch.

Her power was so great, I could not disobey.

[LOUD SLAM] Barnabas!

What is it? What is it, Vicky!

- What is it? - The ghost!

The ghost of Sam Evans!

Ghost?

He appeared to me, here in this room!

- Did he? - Yes.

He told me the dream.

Cassandra caused that to happen.

I met her in the woods.

I knew she was planning something.

I could tell by the expression on her face.

Barnabas, as soon as I go to sleep,

I'm gonna have that dream.

Then I'll be compelled to tell it to you.

And if I do, you'll die.

You'll die!

♪♪

Barnabas, I'm so frightened.

I know but you must try not to be.

After I have the dream, I can't tell you.

I can't tell you!

Vicky, there may be a way of preventing the dream.

There is no way!

Yes, Stokes might be able to prevent it,

he prevented it once before!

Only temporarily.

It's going to happen, Barnabas.

I can't stop it from happening!

- Now, Vicky, please sit down and relax. - No!

- I have to get out of here! - Where are you going?

I don't know.

I just have to get out of this house!

- I'll take you back to Collinwood. - No!

- I have to get away from you! - From me?

Don't you understand?

I'm tempted to tell you the dream right now!

- Vicky! - Very tempted.

Vicky!

Barnabas, I have to get away from you! Now!

Vicky! Vicky!

Spirit of Sam Evans.

Spirit of Sam Evans, appear to me.

Appear to me.

Did you obey my command?

Yes.

Did you tell Victoria Winters the dream?

Yes.

Oh good. Excellent.

Allow me to return to my grave.

Allow me to return.

Yes.

Now you may return to your grave.

And you will rest peaceably.

Throughout eternity.

The curse has begun again.

And this time it will reach its ultimate conclusion.

Barnabas will be brought to his fate,

by the woman he loves.
