This is the latest video in my series of Dark Shadows actor & and actress tributes. This time it is the lovely and talented actress, Lara Parker, who portrayed the evil witch Angelique (among other characters) on the gothic soap opera. I've used most of these photos in my other DS videos..but decided to group them here in as tribute to this amazing actress. I hope you enjoy this...please rate and comment if you do! I could also use some help in boosting my view counts and YT channel...so if you know of anyone who would enjoy my Dark Shadows videos..please pass my url along. Thank you so much!!! :)

Hello there---Mr. BaronVonBlixberg...... Great video.

This is my favorite cause I Always Liked the episodes with Lara & Frid.

Back in 69 I met Lara, Selby, Grayson, but not Frid. My Fathers cousin was stage mngr "Edward Melton". his name appears at the end credits. Just a few mnths ago due to being laid off from work that I became a You-Tube watcher & found out that DS was still so popular with all new generations of people.  It's bringing back lots of memories for me.

Tks....

Hi Kellygirl19581...that is so AWESOME!!! How lucky you are to have actually met those three amazing DS actors..and back in 1969 when they were still working on the show!!! :) Thank you so much for taking the time to comment...it really means alot to me. :)

Those cheekbones...otherworldly! Lara Parker was, and is...so beautiful. Angeligue was always my favorite character as well.

I used to get home from school, get a fudgical out of the freezer and watch Dark Shadows. I told my neighborhood friends about it. I was there when they watched their first episode. They said "Its a soap opera, no way. I told them just hear the story forget about stereostypes. At the end of their first show-THEY WERE HOOKED! It was now ALL of our daily ritual... And these were mostly guys.

RMPenta, Kind of confused by your response. I addressed her killing Sarah and her hatred of Josette was absurd, Josette never did anything to Angelique! So are saying that Barnabas was not at all to blame for seducing and abandoning Angelique?

[RPenta]

@SecretWife56 Wrong; she helped kill Sara Collins; how about driving Josette off the Widow's Hill-don't sanitize the character of Angelique.

[SecretWife56]

Angelique is my girl! As a Woman Betrayed, I FEEL HER RAGE! HOWEVER, SHE DID GO WAY TOO FAR! She harmed innocents, a child for Goddess's sake! A real Witch, which I am, would NEVER harm a child! But Barnabas deserved a major butt-kicking, but turning him into a vamp and making him hurt lots of other innocents, not OK!

I loved Dark Shadows & all the actors & actress's equally, but I'll be damned if I can't shake off the fact that Lara Parker was my favorite villainess. She portrayed evil incarnate to the tee & it didn't hurt that she was strikingly beautiful, plus she was a top notch actress in movies like "Save the Tiger & Race with the Devil," who's talent went unappreciated & underused by the Hollywood studios. This is a great tribute to a wonderful actress! Thanks Baron! Yes, I did have a crush on her.

Lara Parker was esome! I really do miss dark Shadows

[killasocialist]

Thanks fdor postin! Back then I said I was going to marry her when I got big enough!

The Phoenix could defeat Quentin, Barnabas, and Angelique. I reviewed some episodes and see she was quite weak at the end and without the sacred scarab; an interesting tag match: Nicholas and Angelique vs. Laura and Count Petofi.
