More on Today's May Monster....

                             From the late 60's TV show, "Dark Shadows"
A wonderfully evil villain , the "Black Sheep" of the Collins family (in the 1879 story-line...)
                Having returned to the Family home for the reading of Grandmother's Will...
                                            Then Vicky sees Quentin as well....
                 He began as  a Ghost haunting Collinswood... only visible to the children...
                        Here is a a short bio on David Selby and the character of Quentin....

After just a bit ... the family fled the home for a while... and we learn of the background of "Cousin Quentin" and his insane wife (Whom he later  murdered for catching him and the maid together....)

Rather than risk the "scandal" to the family name, Quentin is locked away in a hidden room...
                   
                          He was even resurrected as a Zombie to do the witch's bidding....
                
Back in the late 1800's he was a world traveler, and an Evil Warlock in search of "Secrets"
            At one time even possessed the preserved head of the wizard, Judah Zachary....


                     Later he was even inflicted with turning into a Werewolf...

         As with Dorian Grey, he had a "Special Portrait"... (Painted by the artist "Tate"...)
                As long as the painting survives, he will live forever, and never age...
Only his portrait will age....
His studies into the "Mystic Arts" even allowed him to travel through time using a special cursed staircase.... and Selby had an even bigger "young Female-based" amount of Fans...

    2. The "Chris Jennings" character was the main "Werewolf" in the show...
