The Barnabas of 1970 has at last arrived in 1840, saving Julia (Grayson Hall) from being killed by the 19th century version of Barnabas. Taking over his counterpart's body, Barnabas (Jonathan Frid) intends to stay around long enough to prevent disaster from befalling 1970 Collinwood at the ghostly hands of con artist Gerard Stiles. Meanwhile, Flora Collins (Joan Bennett), the matriarch of Collinwood -- and the exact lookalike of her 20th century counterpart, Elizabeth Collins Stoddard -- expresses dismay at the arrival of her son, Desmond Collins (John Karlen), who bears a marked resemblance to Willie Loomis of 1970 Collinwood. This episode initially aired on October 6, 1970.
