A soap opera which never lived up to its initial concept. With the New England setting and established backstory with occult themes, the stage was set for an incredible saga in the grand soap tradition. This promise of greatness was completely aborted however by the across the board poor acting, characters with a lack of dimension and scenes which were absolutely devoid of the mysterious or gothic romantic atmosphere which you would expect. Aside from that lovely theme tune, it was pitiful all around, and in the end, could only be embraced in certain quarters for how bad it actually was.
