Dark Shadows was a Soap Opera which ran on ABC from 1966 to 1971. While the show did have Gothic themes, it was not until six months into the first season when it gained notoriety by introducing overtly supernatural elements. Though many soaps have since flirted with plots involving ghosts and psychic energy, Dark Shadows used almost every classic horror element (vampires, werewolves, zombies, magic users) as well as sci-fi tropes like Time Travel and alternate dimensions. The show's musical score was considered notable, receiving a Grammy nomination and spawning a top 20 Billboard hit.
