Season 5: Episode 213 - DARK SHADOWS: Interview with Stacey Poulos, Niece of Alex Stevens (The Dark Shadows Werewolf)

DARK SHADOWS:  Interview with Stacy Poulos, Niece of Alex Stevens, The Werewolf of Dark Shadows

 

Alex Stevens (1936-2015) was a stuntman from New York City. Born in Connecticut, he and his twin brother lived in several homes before settling in New York. He served as a stunt coordinator on the original Dark Shadows. Alex also appeared on-screen in the role of the werewolf, although he was never credited for this. As the werewolf, Alex doubled for the characters of both Chris Jennings and Quentin Collins.

 

Alex Stevens also performed stunts on the 1970 MGM feature film, House of Dark Shadows and its followup, Night of Dark Shadows. In 1970, Alex was the mystery guest on a memorable episode of "What's My Line?" where he appeared in full werewolf makeup. He signed in as the Wolfman. After the panel members were allowed to remove their blindfolds, Stevens removed his werewolf makeup for the audience.

 

We are joined by Stacy Poulos, the niece of Alex Stevens who shares her memories of her uncle.
