In an attempt to gain Victoria's affections and divert Elizabeth from her recent troubles, Barnabas decides to hold an ancestral costume party, suggesting that Victoria goes as Josette.

Victoria selects one of Josette's dresses from the Old House to wear at Barnabas' costume party. Barnabas is disturbed by the sight of Sarah's dress amongst the old clothes.

At the request of Victoria, a reluctant Barnabas invites Burke to the costume party, indulgently suggesting that he adopt the guise of Jeremiah Collins, his old rival.

While the residents of Collinwood enjoy Barnabas' hospitality at the party, Elizabeth senses a ghostly presence. An indulgent Roger begins a séance, sending Victoria into a psychic trance.

The séance continues and Victoria channels the spirit of Josette, reliving the moments before her suicide at Widows' Hill. Barnabas gives Victoria the music box as a gift.

Maggie's fragmented memories seem to lead back to the Eagle Hill Cemetery, making Julia decide that they should pay it a visit. The music box has a marked effect on Victoria's behaviour.

Burke is unimpressed by the music box and Victoria's growing interest in the life of Josette. Later, they almost encounter Julia and Maggie, as they visit the cemetery in an attempt to restore her memory.

Julia is intrigued to see that Maggie reacts to Barnabas' name in fear and decides that the clues lead to the Collinwood estate. Julia arrives at Collinwood, where she poses as a visiting historian.

Victoria begins to develop a fear of the past. Meanwhile, Barnabas goes to Julia's bedroom during the night, intent on killing her, but is shocked to discover that she is waiting for him.

Barnabas is outraged by Julia's gloating revelation that she knows his secret and is determined to kill her. However, she makes an intriguing offer that saves her life and offers him hope.

Julia's presence at the Old House arouses Woodard's suspicions. Meanwhile, Sarah reveals to David that Maggie is still alive. After doubting her presence, Victoria finds Sarah's cap on the floor.

Victoria is overjoyed to discover an archaic house near the seafront. Burke hints to Barnabas that he is suspicious of his past and of the influence he has on Victoria, with intentions to investigate.

Victoria, Barnabas and Burke share an uneasy evening in each other's company. Sarah appears to Maggie in her room at Windcliff and engineers her escape, leading her back to Collinsport.

Maggie's return to Collinsport sends shockwaves through the community. Barnabas is terrified to learn that the girl's memory has returned, but Julia's intervention prevents him being exposed.

Burke's proposal leaves Victoria with a difficult decision to make. Later, Burke and Barnabas share a drink at the Blue Whale and exchange veiled threats about their pursuit of Victoria.

Barnabas is livid to discover that Victoria has accepted Burke's proposal and makes a telling outburst. Barnabas is now eager to complete Julia's therapy and vows to stop the wedding.

Joe and Maggie have a difficult time trying to restart their relationship. Burke makes enquiries about Barnabas as his suspicions grow. Victoria is confused by the preoccupation of the music box.

Barnabas begins to worry that Julia's experiments are having an adverse effect on him. Sarah shows David the coffin hidden in the secret room in the mausoleum.

A duplicitous Barnabas tells Victoria about Burke's threat to delve into his past and investigate his affairs. Victoria is appalled to learn the news and pledges her support.

Julia is forced to justify her treatment methods to an angry Sam, after David reveals that she has been investigating Sarah at length. Maggie discovers a doll left by Sarah in her bedroom.

Barnabas reacts furiously when Julia reveals that Sarah has visited the Old House, fearing she will expose him. He relents realising that there is a possibility that she will appear to him.

At the mausoleum, the caretaker notices that it has been disturbed. When David calls out for help, he becomes scared and leaves. Later, an unhappy coincidence prevents Roger and Joe finding the boy.

After an encounter with Sarah in the woods surrounding the estate, Willie realises that she may have told David about Barnabas and warns Julia of the danger any knowledge would place the boy in.

In spite of Julia's protestations, Barnabas joins the search for David. Inside the mausoleum, Sarah shows Barnabas the way out of the secret room and he runs out into Barnabas' waiting arms.

David refuses to provide Barnabas with answers and seems scared of him. Barnabas reprimands Willie and is convinced David poses a threat. Later, David is afraid that he is being watched as he sleeps.

Barnabas is now certain that David has found out his secret. Meanwhile, a visit to the mausoleum by Woodard and Sam begins to convince them that Sarah is actually a ghost.

Following their new discovery, Sam and Woodard decide to take Maggie out of Julia' s care. Barnabas decides to kill David, but is prevented by Sarah's intervention.

In a desperate attempt to flush out Maggie's kidnapper, Sam and the sheriff decide to leak the false news that her fragmented memory is beginning to return.

David is tormented by a nightmare of Barnabas baring his fangs. Meanwhile, Barnabas learns of Maggie's restored memory and vows to deal with the matter, despite Julia's protests.

Willie unsuccessfully attempts to persuade Barnabas to spare Maggie. Meanwhile, while the Evans Cottage remains under police guard, Sarah pays Maggie a visit, managing to enter and leave unseen.

Julia persuades Barnabas to spare Maggie, by claiming that she has written a letter to the police, which she tells Willie does not exist. Meanwhile, the police shoot an intruder entering Maggie's room.

The police discover that the intruder was Willie, now barely clinging to life. As Woodard operates on Willie, Julia assures Barnabas that he will almost certainly die, maintaining their secret

Willie remains in a coma. Julia tells Woodard that she suspected Willie for some time, but he maintains that the abduction has a supernatural dimension. David remains highly suspicious of Barnabas.

David continues to be terrified of Barnabas. Later, as he sleeps, David dreams that Sarah takes him to the Old House and reveals the secret of Barnabas.

Willie's life continues to hang in the balance. Julia calls upon her powers of hypnosis to deal with David, but has not counted on the knowledge he has acquired from his dream.

Sarah visits David again and as they talk, he realises that the place in his dream was the cellar of the Old House. However, Sarah warns him that if he goes there, he will be in danger.

Barnabas is concerned that the evidence against Willie is not strong enough and hides Maggie's ring in Willie's room for a search party to discover. Willie begins to regain emerge from his coma.

Willie regains consciousness and is questioned by the sheriff. Barnabas and Julia are relieved when the sheriff announces that Willie's is clearly mentally unhinged and will be committed for treatment.

Roger struggles to understand David's suspicion of his cousin. David is suspicious that the basement of the Old House is locked. After returning home, David is attacked by a giant bat in his room.

Barnabas begins to suspect that Julia is working against him. Julia tries to persuade Roger to send David away to school. David decides to investigate the Old House and encounters an angry Barnabas.

Barnabas advances, demanding an explanation for David's intrusion. David runs away to Collinwood where he announces his findings, leaving Barnabas and Julia in a race to disprove the boy's claims.

Burke and Dr. Woodard tell David that they didn't find anything in the Old House basement. David decides to tell them about the secret room in the mausoleum, breaking his promise to Sarah. As soon as Burke and Woodard leave, the window to David's room bursts open, and David fears that it's Sarah showing him her anger. At the mausoleum, David takes Burke and Dr. Woodard to show them the secret room, but the door will not open. Later, David finds Sarah's flute.

A psychiatrist is called to Collinwood to examine David. Burke believes that David's state is linked with Maggie's ordeal, while Woodard encounters the ghost of Sarah at the mausoleum.

Sarah shows Woodard the secret room, but she disappears before he can learn more. Julia is shocked to learn that Woodard believes that Sarah is Barnabas' sister and has returned with a purpose in mind.

Woodard continues his research at the cemetery and makes an unexpected discovery. Now convinced that he has uncovered Barnabas' secret, Woodard goes to the Old House to confront him.

Woodard's confrontation convinces Barnabas that he must maintain his secret, warning Julia to destroy all her notes relating to the experiment. Julia appeals to Woodard in an attempt to save him.

Woodard manages to gain access to Julia's bedroom and finds her notebook on the experiment, which he steals. Later, Barnabas and Julia are mortified to discover that the book is missing.

Barnabas demands that Julia helps him to kill Woodard. Woodard arranges a meeting with Sam and the sheriff to discuss the notebook, but Julia and Barnabas pay a visit before it can take place.

Julia and Woodard are in his office. Barnabas enters, transforming from a bat to a vampire. Barnabas and Julia inject him with a poision that will make his death look like a heartattack so they can get his notebook on Barnabas and prevent him from telling people that Barnabas is a vampire. Meanwhile, at the Blue Whale, the sheriff comes to Sam Evans. He asks Sam if he's seen Woodard. They have a discussion over where he could be. A woman shrieks outside due to the sight of a bat. Sam & the sheriff decide to go to Dr. Woodard's office. They break down the door and find the body of Dr. Woodard. Julia hears the ghost of Dr. Woodard tell her that 'you no longer have any friends'

Sam comes home to Maggie. Maggie is shocked to find out that Dr. Woodard is dead. She feels responsible and feels his death is linked to her kidnapping earlier. Sam tells her that no one knows if it is murder or not. Burke, Sam, and the sheriff talk about what they think happened to Dr. Woodard in his office. At Collinwood, Burke tells Victoria that he has some bad news. At first she thinks he is referring to his trip to Brazil. He tells her that Dr. Woodard is dead. She is shocked. Julia enters. Burke tells her the news and Julia acts shocked by it. The coroner calls Sam and tells him that Dr. Woodard died from a heart attack.

Julia wants to stop the experiments on Barnabas. Barnabas convinces her to continue. Burke starts to prepare to go on the trip to South America. Julia tries to convince Burke to postpone the trip because she says Vicki is frail, but in reality it's because Barnabas will try to get Vicki to fall in love with him. Victoria tells Burke that Julia seems to be frailer then her. Julia is very upset about the death of Dr.Woodard. She sees his ghost by the fountain at Collinwood. She starts new expieriments on Barnabas.

Sarah's ghost visits David. She tells him about the death of Doctor Woodard. She tells him something terrible happens but then disappears after he asks what is going to happen.

Mrs. Johnson comes to Elizabeth with bad news. She just heard that a plane, owned by the same company that owns the flight Burke is on, crashed. Elizabeth tells Mrs. Johnson that she will phone the airline about it. The airline tells her that they do not yet have the passanger list and they tell her they will call if Burke was on it. Meanwhile, at the Old House, Barnabas and Julia talk about Josette. Barnabas and Julia leave for Widow's Hill, where Josette jumped off. Meanwhile, at Collinwood, Victoria enters the room and talks about Burke and their plans together. At that moment, the airline called saying that Burke's plane had crashed and that a search party had been organized. Victoria feels faint after learning of the news. She insists on leaving for a walk. Meanwhile, at Widow's Hill, Barnabas talks about his uncle's bride (The history of Josette & Barnabas was changed 20 episodes later when the show went back to 1795) and how he loved her and how she died because she was frighte

This episode starts with Vicki in Josette's room at the Old House. She is wearing a bridal veil. Julia and Barnabas enter. They both comment on her beauty. Julia then leaves the room. Barnabas shows Victoria a body bag in the room. He tells her that Burke is in there. Victoria then wakes up. It was all a dream! Carolyn had woken her up. Carolyn offers sympathy to Victoria, but Victoria says that she does not need it because Burke is coming back. Meanwhile, at the Old House, Julia is looking through Josette's things. She feels the presence of someone, and she believes it's either Josette or Doctor Woodard. She hears the Victoria entering the Old House. They talk, and Julia pretty much tells her (Not in these words) to bug off and leave Barnabas alone. Victoria doesn't understand her bahavior. She later has Barnabas come to Collinwood, and tells her of how Julia acted. Julia enters with flowers, apologizing. Victoria goes to get a vase, but when she returns she finds the flowers are dead

Barnabas & Julia are in her laboratory. Julia gives Barnabas a treatment. After the treatment, Barnabas feels like he's on Cloud 9. He feels like new blood is flowing through him. He goes as far as saying that tomorrow he will go on Widow's Hill with Victoria to see his first sunrise since 1795. Julia tells him not to risk things which might hasten his destruction. Meanwhile, at Collinwood, Carolyn is pleading with Victoria not to stay night and day at the phone. Julia enters. Carolyn says that she'll ask Mrs. Johnson to make coffee for them and leaves. Julia hypnotizes Victoria and takes her to the basement of the Old House. There she shows Barnabas in his coffin and tells her to remember this yet not remember it. They go back to Collinwood. Carolyn brings them coffee (According to her, Mrs. Johnson isn't feeling very well so she had to make it herself....a long time to make coffee!). Victoria is already uneasy every time Barnabas' name is spoken. Barnabas stops by later and asks her

Carolyn wakes up in the middle of the night and sees David staring at her. David says he was just checking to make sure she wasn't dead. David gives her a toy soldier to protect her. Sarah appears to Carolyn, making Carolyn believe that David might be telling the truth about other things. CArolyn tells Elizabeth not to send David away. David is upset because Dr. Wooodard saw Sarah right before he died. Julia prepares another treatment to reverse the aging that Barnabas has experienced, however the experiment fails and Barnabas ages his entire body.

Barnabas and Julia enter the drawing room of the Old House. Barnabas has aged very fast. Barnabas accuses Julia of doing this on purpose because she wants his affections. Julia tells him that she told him that she needed more time to get ready. Barnabas says he no one longer has confidence in Julia's work. Barnabas then tells Julia to go to Collinwood an tell Victoria that he can not keep his appointment to watch the sun rise. Julia opens the door, only to find Vickie already there. Vickie wants to talk to Barnabas. Barnabas quickly moves a chair around to make it so that Victoria can not see him. Barnabas tells Victoria that he is sick right now and doesn't want to pass it to her. He says he is going to leave town soon. Victoria leaves. Julia tells Barnabas he should bite Vickie to make himself look young again. At Collinwood, Vickie returns. Carolyn enters and tells her she has suspicions that what David has been saying might be true. Vickie says that Barnabas does not deserve the go

Carolyn is in the drawing room, and is looking out the window. David enters. They talk, and he gasps. He says he saw an old man standing outside the window. Elizabeth enters. David tells Elizabeth what he saw, and leaves. Elizabeth talks to Carolyn, and tells Carolyn that she thinks David is mentally disturbed and she has no choice but to send him away. David is listening in. At the Old House, Barnabas enters the house and finds Julia waiting. Julia asks Barnabas if he bit someone, and he says no. Julia says Barnabas can bite her. Barnabas declines because he may need Julia later. At Collinwood, David and Carolyn talk. David says he knows aunt Elizabeth thinks he's crazy. He tells Carolyn that he made everything up, and makes Carolyn promise she will not go to the Old House. David leaves and Carolyn decides to go to the Old House. She enters the house, and goes to the basement. She is shocked to find a coffin. Julia finds her, and tells her to leave before it is too late. Barnabas find

Barnabas bites Carolyn. Later, in Josette Collin's room, Carolyn is at rest. Julia enters. Julia tells Carolyn about what happened. She asks Carolyn some questions, and Carolyn replies that she feels in place at the Old House. Barnabas enters and talks to Carolyn about what has happened. At Collinwood, Elizabeth is getting worried. She tells Roger this. Roger says she probably has a late date. At the Old House, Barnabas tells Carolyn that she will be helping him, and that if she does a good job he will give her everlasting life. He tells her to leave before anyone at Collinwood starts to worry. Barnabas tells Julia that he needs to get another person to protect him during the day, and she volunteers. Carolyn arrives at Collinwood. Elizabeth asks Carolyn where she has been, and Carolyn says she has been taking a walk. Later that evening, Carolyn comes downstairs and looks at the portrait of Barnabas and touchs her neck wound.

Carolyn looks outside the window in the foyer and looks at the sunset. She goes into David's room. She wakes him up, and he asks her why she is in his room at 6:00 in the morning. Carolyn tells David that she did not see Sarah (lies!) and that if he doesn't stop it he'll be sent away. Later, Carolyn sees Julia and asks what she is doing. Julia tells her she came to tell Vickie that the two crystals from the chanderleer do not match. Carolyn leaves but secretly hides on the landing in the foyer. Julia hypnotizes Vickie in another room, and Carolyn sees them leaving from the landing. Julia takes Vickie to Josette's room. She tells him that Barnabas is trying to turn her into Josette, and that she should remember this in her subconciousness. Later, Carolyn asks Vickie how her walk with Julia was. Vickie tells Carolyn she never went on a walk, and leaves to teach David his lesson. Carolyn questions Julia about the walk. Julia tells her that she and Vickie went out to get some fresh air.

Carolyn once again looks at the portrait of Barnabas. Vickie goes to her and asks her if she wants to see a movie with her. Carolyn says she can't, but suggests Vickie go to the Old House to talk with cousin Barnabas to talk about the restoration of the West Wing. Vickie says she doesn't want to impose on Barnabas. Carolyn encourages her to go, and Vickie says she might go later. Julia enters the house, coming back from town. Vickie tells Carolyn & Julia about a dream she had about going with Julia to a very old house. Vickie leaves to go check on David. Carolyn says it's a strange conicendence that Vickie had a dream like that. Julia feels that Carolyn suspects her of something. On the terrace, Carolyn watchs the sun sets. She thinks she hears Barnabas calling for her, but it is just Joe Haskell. She tells him that she no longer believes the things David has been saying. Carolyn says she is going to go for a walk and Joe offers to go with her. She suggests that he go inside and talk t

Julia and Carolyn are in the same room. Julia asks Carolyn not to follow her around so much, and then leaves the room. Roger and Elizabeth tell Carolyn that Vickie and David will soon be leaving for Boston for a few days of vacation. Carolyn says she is pleased that David is getting away, which surprises Elizabeth. Roger offers Carolyn the chance to go with Vickie and David, but she declines. Carolyn leaves. Roger and Elizabeth talk about Carolyn's recent strange behavior. Later, Vickie is making a bouqet of flowers when Julia enters. Vickie tells Julia it is for Barnabas and tells her about her behavior to him earlier. Carolyn enters and says she is going shopping for a few hours. After Carolyn leaves, Julia closes the door, but Carolyn listens to their conversation from the other side of the door. Julia hypnotizes Vickie, and they leave for the Old House. Carolyn follows. At the Old House, Julia takes Vickie to a room--which had been Maggie's cell which now only contains the coffin W

At the Old House, Barnabas thinks about what to do with Julia while Carolyn waits impatiently. Barnabas decides he must kill Julia. He asks Carolyn to help him, but she does not want to. Barnabas tells her that all she will have to do is get Julia's notebook about him and he will do the actual killing. When Carolyn gets home, she is greeted by Mrs. Johnson. Mrs. Johnson tells her she shouldn't make a habit of not eating dinner. She also remarks that Carolyn is very pale and thinks she might be sick. After Mrs.Johnson leaves, Maggie stops by. Maggie had been in New Hampshire and just gotten back and heard the news of Burke's death. Carolyn tells Maggie that Vickie is in Boston and that Burke is probably dead. Maggie remarks that Carolyn isn't acting like she normally does. Maggie tells Carolyn that when Carolyn touchs her scar it makes her uncomfortable, Carolyn retorts that it's her favorite scar. Maggie then leaves. Carolyn then sees Julia and tells her Barnabas wants her as a cover f

Julia comes down the stairs to the foyer of Collinwood. She stares at Barnabas' portrait. She thinks about what is going on, and decides it's not safe to keep the notebook in her room. Julia needs to find a place to keep it over night, and then drop it off at the bank the next day. As she starts to leave the room, the great clock rings. Julia decides she'll hide the notebook in the clock. Carolyn goes to the Old House. She tells Barnabas she couldn't find the notebook, and Julia discovered her looking through the room. Barnabas says that Julia now knows that they are looking for the notebook. Barnabas orders Carolyn to watch Julia at all times and find the notebook tonight! Carolyn reminds Barnabas that he is in danger during the day. Barnabas tells Carolyn that she will look over him during the day. Barnabas says that as soon as they have the notebook, Dr. Hoffman will be destroyed! At Collinwood, Julia paces between the foyer and the drawing room. Elizabeth joins her downstairs, and

In a desperate attempt to prevent Barnabas from obtaining the notebook, Julia entrusts it with Tony Peterson, a local lawyer pursuing a claim against a Collins family employee.

Barnabas issues Carolyn with instructions to retrieve Julia's notebook. Meanwhile, he uses an ancient incantation to vengefully make the ghost of Woodard appear to a guilt-stricken Julia.

Carolyn gains Tony's affections as part of Barnabas' plan. Julia is terrified to be confronted by Woodard's ghost, while Barnabas contrives to convince her that it is a result of her conscience.

Julia continues to be concerned that her notebook will fall into the wrong hands. Julia later makes contact with Sarah, who refuses to help her because of her involvement in Woodard's murder.

Julia finds herself tormented by a nightmarish sequence of events conjured up by Barnabas, culminating in a telephone call from the ghost of Woodard. Terrified, she suddenly sees the door begin to open

The visitor turns out to be Barnabas, feigning concern at Julia's welfare. Carolyn makes moves to obtain Tony's keys. Later at his office, Carolyn gains access to the safe, but is discovered by Tony.

Carolyn claims that the notebook is part of a blackmail attempt by Julia, but is unable to take it. Julia confides in Barnabas that she has seen Sarah. As he accuses her of lying, the girl appears before them.

Sarah tells Barnabas that he must be good and refuses to reappear to him until he does so. Meanwhile, Victoria begins to face the loss of Burke and Sarah warns David of a new danger.

Disturbed by her nephew's insistence that he is haunted by a ghost, Elizabeth Collins-Stoddard reluctantly agrees to hold a seance in her home. During the seance, the ghost, aka Sarah Collins, chooses to speak through the governess, Victoria Winters. However, the seance doesn't last long when Miss Winters suddenly disappears and a strange woman is found sitting in her place.
