Come to Lyndhurst for our 2025 Dark Shadows Weekend! On July 19th and July 20th, we welcome Kathryn Leigh Scott, author, and actress, best known for playing “Maggie Evans” and “Josette DuPres”, in the original Gothic television series Dark Shadows, and House of Dark Shadows (1970).  We also expect to have a special guest attending!

Ticket holders will arrive at Lyndhurst and check in at our carriage house welcome center for the event. Kathryn Leigh Scott will be ready to take photos with you, sign books, and answer your questions in two daytime sessions: The Morning Session is 10 am to 12 pm and the Afternoon Session is 1 pm to 3 pm. Books and other items will be available to purchase on-site with the event and in our Welcome Center Gift Shop. These tickets include entry into the mansion. They also include access to the grounds.

Spend the day here at Lyndhurst before and after attending the Meet and Greet! Wander the grounds on your own, or attend one of the Dark Shadows Walking Tours run by the Dark Shad Bros: Peter and Doctor John, separate tickets are required for this tour. You’ll also be able to wander around the first floor, second floor and tower of the mansion, and have the opportunity for a photo op on a Victorian Sofa that appeared in Dark Shadows. Don’t forget to buy your tickets for Champagne at Collinwood!  There will also be a pop-up cafe on site run by Geordanes of Irvington.
