1795

From The Dark Shadows Wiki

Year 1795 (MDCCXCV) was a common year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar. Victoria Winters traveled to this year by accident (365), observing the marriage of Josette DuPres to Jeremiah Collins (383), as well as the death of Barnabas Collins (409). Victoria was not aware that Barnabas later rose as a vampire in this time (411). Victoria fell in love with Peter Bradford, but she was executed for witchcraft. As she was hanged, Victoria returned to 1968 (461). Eve traveled back to 1795 to learn more about Peter Bradford through a talisman belonging to Nicholas Blair (623). The spirit of Peter eventually transported Victoria Winters back to this time again to be with him (650).

Barnabas Collins later returned to this time period twice, although it was on those occassions referred to as 1796 and 1797, respectively. The first was to prevent Victoria Winters from being executed as she had been in her first visit (661), and the next was to follow Kitty Soames as she faded into the past through the portrait of Josette (885).
