Barnabas Collins makes his first appearance. We only see his hand, which is provided by Timothy Gordon.
The Barnabas Collins character was created by writer "Malcolm Marmorstein" in 1967 for the ailing TV Soap that was doomed to shut down in just four weeks. Barnabas was an instant hit for the show. Malcolm Marmorstein then went on to write 82 more episodes before leaving the show to write "Peyton Place".
