Dark Shadows(1991)

Dark Shadows is a gothic soap opera that follows governess Victoria Winters as she arrives at the sprawling Collinwood estate in Maine, only to encounter Barnabas Collins—a vampire freshly released from his coffin after centuries of imprisonment. As Dr. Hoffman pursues a medical cure for Barnabas' vampirism, Victoria becomes entangled in the Collins family's dark secrets. The series takes a supernatural turn when Victoria is thrust back in time to 1790, where she witnesses the tragic events that transformed the human Barnabas into an undead creature. Blending mystery, horror, and melodrama, Dark Shadows weaves together present-day intrigue with historical tragedy, exploring themes of cursed bloodlines and the price of immortality.
