I was crazy about those "Dark Shadows" boys -- Jonathan Frid as Barnabas
(the vampire) and David Selby as Quentin (the werewolf). (This was the late
1960's, for anyone who's counting.) They got me started on a whole
supernatural phase in my teens. What IS that whole thing about vampires and
sex? All the vamp stories I read nowadays, the undead are irresistibly sexy
and fantastic in the sack. Having sex with cold dead people... really? Why
is there that paradox?
I was also crazy about Mr. Spock. I understand there is an entire "Mr.
Spock Syndrome" in literature & television : lusting after the untouchable
unattainable man. (see Ramses Emerson, you Elizabeth Peters fans!)
