Lara Parker. You were still pretty when this video was filmed. Rest in peace. I hope that there is an afterlife, and that you are looking down on us Dark Shadows fans, young and beautiful forever.
She was one great actress, and a lovely lady! I like that she was able to laugh at herself, in that clip from Dark Shadows. She was a good sport! Too bad Jonathan Frid didn't come to the party. He once said that he hated parties. Too bad! Lamar was so gracious, too! Thanks for sharing this! ~Janet in Canada
What would Dark Shadows be without Lara Parker? I hated her so much on the show, but that is what made it so fun. Jerry Lacy looked like he wanted to crack up! What Lara says about the special tension is true, and I think it is one of the reasons I loved the show so much. Everything felt so real.
Loved her and the show. I even named my daughter after one of her characters. The one she played called Cassandra. My wife was happy with the name, Cassandra. But, Wouldn't allow me to name her Angelique. I watched the show when it was 1st broadcast on A.B.C. after school. I still love the show.
Ms. Parker performed her famous Angelique laugh for the fans at the 1988 Dark Shadows Festival in NYC. She received a standing ovation from the appreciative fans. Wow, that was 35 years ago!
Lara was very good and entertaining in Dark Shadows....she should have become a very famous film star...very surprised she didn't as she had the talent and the looks
I think many of the DS Actors were "Typecast." Not All..like David Selby or Kate Jackson, however....Lara was indelibly associated with the EVIL WITCH and, back then, Actors Didn't have as many options to remake their careers.
Thanks so much for sharing this priceless footage! Many of the "celebrities" of the current time could take a leaf from the book of the DS ladies! Gracious, modest, wonderful role models. Is it any wonder their fans adore them?
These Jaytee DS gathering videos are an absolute must They capture the DS actors in their prime at the height of all the DS gatherings when many of the questions and answers were still fresh and exciting. Note to self: I see you David at 05:33 With my knowledge of the present, I wish that I could take Quentin's Stairway back through time to relive that gathering and then to change events in my own family's life when everyone was still alive. Author/actress Lara Parker ( Lamar Ricky Hawkins on Facebook ) still sounds awesome like Angelique still as of 2016 in all the Dark Shadows' audio drama CDs by Big Finish Productions
I've watched Dark Shadows whole series multiple time from Victoria Winters arrival to Carolyn starters getting bit by the vampire at the end. and I can tell you this I do not remember Angelique lighting the tarot cards on fire chanting those words. as she put a spell on Victoria I do not remember those parts at all I do remember Trask grabbing Victoria Winters I'm wondering was that scene cut out or maybe the CDs that I have skip that part. so my question is was that part in the series please let me know thank you for your time
Fantastic show. Lara was the ideal Angelique, I am happy that she got this role and was able to work with such a class of real professionals. Her eyes!, the way she put out her arms that froze a man in his place before she gave her vampire bite. You can tell she got a kick out of it.
Lara is not part of Hollywood and she happens to support equal rights for Gay people and does not care for fans that use their religion to hate and too judge others with.
@@flyguy1827 Nope not at all. I have known Ms. Parker for many years through the conventions . She was very close to Frid. She is very humble and grounded and she did not buy into any of the Hollywood crap. She also returned to school and earned degrees and then wrote four books that have since been reprinted numerous times and truth, she does not use her religion to judge nor condemn others like some hateful religious DS fans have done for years smh.
Dad died in Jan of 1988 I guess October is the Month Lara was born if I can recall this and now I do love lara and her acting she writes great books on Dark Shadows too have 3 of them
It seems funny to the audience but you have to remember at one time people like the Reverend did exist here in the colonies and women were burned to death. It isn't funny.
She put a spell on all of us ..........forever ..............one beautiful lady
Lara Parker is a Charismatic, Real Actress. Truly, she created this incredible, iconic Character. Very Talented.💫💯
Rest in peace, Lara.
Lara Parker. You were still pretty when this video was filmed. Rest in peace. I hope that there is an afterlife, and that you are looking down on us Dark Shadows fans, young and beautiful forever.
Rest in Peace and Blessed Be, Ms. Parker. 👼🏼
RIP Lara Parker
Laura Parker is stunningly beautiful. ♥️

Thanks for this! Her gorgeous blue eyes are forever burned into my heart and soul.
Hey!.... actually, her eyes were a pretty light grey/green ❤
Still gorgeous❤.
Incredible actress who happens to be gorgeous too.
Lara Parker is a gorgeous witch, my God, she is perfect for that role of the Gothic woman spinning spells on her enemies and saying her incantations.
El fondo musical la bruja ...
Es buenisima
I love you. I love powerful women. I love witches! I have nothing but LOVE
She shows appreciation and the limitations of shooting that show with good humor
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Angelique was my first crush. The year was 1969. I was 8. Her beauty transcended time even well into her 70's. God Bless and rest sweet witch.

That sinister laugh of Angelique …..

My childhood crush (and, well, still)! Terrific actress, great lady.
What an expressive face, & great actress, & still is
This was great loved seeing Lara

I read a couple of the books she wrote on Dark Shadows . They were very good.
The fire scene omigod!!
Very nice video. I enjoyed seeing her again both on and off screen. TY
A great video. Thanks for posting!
Fantastic show. Lara was the ideal Angelique, I am happy that she got this role and was able to work with such a class of real professionals. Her eyes!, the way she put out her arms that froze a man in his place before she gave her vampire bite. You can tell she got a kick out of it.
So gorgeous and lady like, Hollywood doesn't appreciate her.
but Hollywood is so depraved, Lara I hope you turn to Jesus.
Lara is not part of Hollywood and she happens to support equal rights for Gay people and does not care for fans that use their religion to hate and too judge others with.
@@thejupiter2574 You got it kinda wrong
Angelique is indeed one of those villains you just LOVE to hate and Ms.Parker is simply BEAUTIFUL! Love dem cheeckbones!

Angelique, my first love...
Greatest
So beautiful and evil, love her
Dad died in Jan of 1988 I guess October is the Month Lara was born if I can recall this and now I do love lara and her acting she writes great books on Dark Shadows too have 3 of them
6:05 The acting was fantastic. Nancy Barrett showed the greatest range of character.
Jerry Lacy was a hoot !!!
That pesky fly was hilarious as the Rev. Trask attempted to perform an exorcism.
You know how there is continuous run run of tv shows on tv land???? There should be Darl Shadows!!! Dont you think?? Good idea yeah
She described dark shadows to a t.
This is hilarious! Who would have thought
It seems funny to the audience but you have to remember at one time people like the Reverend did exist here in the colonies and women were burned to death. It isn't funny.
Sadly, delusional religious bigots are still plentiful today with the same mentality as Trask.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇺🇸
