I'm not sure what you mean by Main House? This Newport location is from the Dark Shadows series, yes Barnabas stayed in the old house which apparently was close by. I'm not sure where that location is. I did get to Tarreytown, NY this past summer and saw the house from the 1970 movie, House of Dark Shadows.
Good question, it is actually the backside, if you remember the tv series this is the shot you would see, it's a great location, the ocean is behind you. The front is unimpressive from what I remember, looks nothing like the back.
@nellis77 You're thinking of the 'MAIN HOUSE'. This one is the Barnaba's house that is smaller - although huge - and is the same one that has been used in several other movies such as 'DEATH BECOMES HER'.
You actually stayed in the Collins Mansion? Did you know somebody there? that is awesome I always wanted to go inside and check it out, you are so lucky!
Beautiful place! I just got back from spending 5 glorious days & nights in the house this past Halloween, and all I can you is that it's more beautiful inside then ever, They are restoring the place and it's just grand!
The movie won't be out till next year, don't know what location they are using, hopefully it will be the one here based on the tv series, Dark Shadows.
The house is located on Ruggles Ave, off of Belluvue , not to far from the Breakers mansion, only problem is this was taken last yr, I went there a few weeks ago and the hedges are so high like 10 ft it is hard to get a good view of the house.
Thanks for your comments, I shot this last July on a hot humid day and I was very excited to see this place being a Dark Shadows fan, This was shot with my Canon Rebel T1i great digital camera with high def video, I was pleasantly surprised with the results.
I love Dark Shadows. this is beautiful thanks for posting it, I was wondering what camera did you shoot this with? the HD quality is AMAZING!! And was it just a camera or a video recorder?
@ajb33099 How did you like the Mansion in Newport from Dark Shadows?, I just love the place, I did walk around and went down to the water and saw the Breakers Mansion, wow ! that was a breathtaking place for sure. I would of loved to have gone in the Carey Mansion, now I'm watching the tv series Dark Shadows!
The house used for the Old house was called "Spratt Mansion" and it burned down many years ago

Is this the front or back of the place? Exactly where is the front door?
