This web-log is for the continuation and discussion of the radio drama The Pit of Ultimate Dark Shadows. Because the program contains many characters and scenes its creator felt the need to provide inquiries on what is enjoyed and considered for each listener during an episode.

The Pit of Ultimate Dark Shadows is a relief series for Dark Shadows which includes many other classic characters from film and television. It celebrates problem-solving and diversity, two of the main components in a fruitful and sustaining life.

No pre-requisite viewing of shows is required to listen to this series. If you enjoy spooky, humour, deep-thought, audio dramas, and companionship you will likely enjoy this show.

I would like to advise new fans to Dark Shadows in general, because I know the original series is becoming far more available now than ever before, that, like much in the online world, caution should be used in what search engines can provide. Dark Shadows itself is incredibly unique, but it was also not easily available for decades so the storytelling focus of earlier fans went down some difficult roads. Many fans still carry that focus of relying on hearsay and non-canon fanfiction. This makes sense but it isn’t a happy tale much of the time.

I am very welcoming to new fans who are able to digest the show as I and other newer fans can do. We need you and we need each other.

One thing I’d like to address when you find the discussion questions: If you can come up with more natural discussion as you listen, I definitely welcome that. The discussion questions were invented to help those who might require a kind of “prompt” to get started, as well as keep the progression on an even keel for each episode.

But if you’re looking for a more general method, there is one in the listed descriptions of each episodes’ content. It is basically done scene-by-scene, just step-by-step addressing things chronologically. A few friends do great in this; making basic observations with their own personal flair, looking at things in their own way. It says a lot.

As for myself? I’m grateful I grew up on interviews and documentaries. Many pioneers have come into exceptional abilities throughout the course of humanity. I got “lucky”, and lucky swings both ways. Otherwise? I’m your standard make of mortal. 🙂

keep in touch,

Daryl
