Past: Angelique was
raised off the marine shores of Martinique in South
America. Her mother was executed for witchcraft when she
was a child. She was raised by her abusive, alcoholic
father. When she was a young girl, she fell in love with
Barnabas Collins. He seduced her years later, pledging
her eternal love. Then Barnabas deceived her - soon Angelique found herself a lowly maidservant to a haughty young woman, Josette du Pres, none other than Barnabas’s fiancee. Humiliated and heartbroken, Angelique wielded her greatest powers and transformed Barnabas into a horrifying creature of darkness - a vampire. His curse brought down the entire house of Collins, enshrouding the great mansion and its inhabitants in darkness for centuries to come. Angelique was soon hanged for witchcraft, but her spirit would rise again over the centuries to taunt the one she loved and could never forget. She comes to him now, to Collinsport, to be his personal Hell and temptress. |
