Dark Shadows: The House of Despair

This is one of the audio items from Big Finish and it's a really good story. Quentin returns to Collinwood and finds out the family is gone and the local residents are extremely hostile towards him. Maggie is still working at the cafe which she now owns. She lets him know about 'The Lost', people who seem to wander around at night oblivious to everything and trying to find something, but no one knows what they are looking for.

Later he runs into Willie, but Willie seems to almost insane. Angelique ends up also appearing and they find the grave that belongs to Barnabas who seems to be finally actually dead. There is also some evil presence living at Collinwood and it really pisses off Angelique which is not the smartest thing to do.

There are also evil birds which are under the control of the big bad. Quentin and Angelique have to unite their forces to handle the evil being. They need one more person, and that's Barnabas. Angelique will have to be the one to call him back from death and convince him to help them, making her have two major problems in one.

A whole lot of problems for them to solve. This was the first Big Finish work that I have listened to and I liked it a lot. Very well done.
