Parallel Time was an alternate time band, and potentially multiple time bands, accessible through a warp in time inside a room in Collinwood's east wing. In this world, people had made different choices and thus led different lives than they had in the mainstream, or primary, timeline.

The existence of another band of time was the subject of study in the mainstream timeline, dating back as early as sometime prior to 1840 (1092). Professor T. Eliot Stokes studied the theory of Parallel Time in the present day.

Two centuries were encountered in Parallel Time, and correlation between the two times was not officially established. The two alterate universes may have been separate from each other or one and the same. The full differences between these centuries of Parallel Time and the main time band are not known, but included the following:

Crossovers

Barnabas Collins (980), Dr. Julia Hoffman (1036), Daphne Harridge, the original Quentin Collins (1191), and Lamar Trask (1198) all traveled from the mainstream time band into Parallel Time. All but Trask later returned to their home times (1060, 1192).

Notes

  • Two storylines on Dark Shadows dealt with Parallel Time. In 1970, Barnabas Collins discovered the room in the east wing and sought to travel into the other time band to cure his vampirism. The final storyline did not include characters from the main time band in its primary story.
  • Although her history was different, Angelique was evil in both the regular and parallel existences.
  • An invisible force prevents anyone from the other universe from entering the room if it contains Parallel Time.
