1st Logo (June 27, 1966-April 2, 1971)

Logo: Scrolling up in the credits of Dark Shadows, we see a superimposed logo with stylized text (the first letters of each word are in boxes) as follows:

Variants:


 * There was different variants of the logo seen on Dark Shadows where the background would be different. In 1970-1971, it would be in color.


 * On some 1970-71 episodes, a text-only version was used as follows:

DAN CURTIS PRODUCTIONS, INC. copyright © year


 * Another variation, seen on the 1969 TV movie Dead of Night: A Darkness at Blaisedon, is like the stylized-text version used on Dark Shadows, except this copyright disclaimer is used:

FX/SFX: Scrolls up in the credits.

Music/Sounds: The end theme of Dark Shadows, that is a spooky dark theme, and/or a deep voice-over with a echo/stutter-like effect saying, "Dark Shadows is a Dan Curtis Production."

Availability: Found on all episodes of the original Dark Shadows TV series, which ran on ABC from 1966 to 1971.

Editor's Note: The theme/announcer is notable for being ominous.

2nd Logo (February 21, 1973)


Logo: There is an in-credit text that reads:

A DAN CURTIS PRODUCTION IN ASSOCIATION WITH

The logo would then cut to a Metromedia Producers Corporation logo that would be superimposed on the same background.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The end-title theme, which is that of The Norliss Tapes, a very dramatic music composition.

Availability: Seen on the 1973 TV movie The Norliss Tapes, which was actually a pilot for an unaired series.

Editor's Note: This logo is somewhat notorious for being scary to many people thanks to the scary music and look of the eyes (actually the last shot of the TV movie).
