In 1966 Marilyn Ross (pseudonym of Daniel Ross ), began what would become 33 Dark Shadows novels based upon the television series. Barnabas appeared first in the sixth volume and his name and image dominated it for the remaining titles. The first issue of the comic book Dark Shadows (from Gold Key), which included a picture of Barnabas on the cover of most issues, appeared in March 1969. The series continued through 1976. In 1992 a new Dark Shadows comic based on the NBC series was initiated by Innovation Comics. In spite of the television series being canceled, Innovation's comic book continued beyond the television story with a fresh story line until Innovation's demise in 1994.
Marilyn Ross is a familiar name to Dark Shadows fans, seen on millions of copies of the Dark Shadows novels produced in the 1960s.
In reality, the author of the books was Canadian writer Dan Ross, who used his wife’s name as a pseudonym for the books.
The Paperback Library began releasing novels based on the TV series Dark Shadows in December of 1966. There were thirty-three novels released through to 1972.
All of the novels, with the exception of House of Dark Shadows were part of one shared continuity separate from the history supplied in the original television series. House of Dark Shadows was an adaptation of the MGM film, House of Dark Shadows and as such, represented a separate continuity.
These books can still be found, from time to time, at used book stores and thift shops. And of course, there's always e-Bay!
