HUMBERT ALLEN ASTREDO

Actor Humbert Allen Astredo joins the Collinsport Historical Society for a rare interview in this installment of our podcast. Astredo entered the world of DARK SHADOWS with a bang in 1968 as warlock Nicholas Blair. He'd later go on to play the satanic Evan Hanley and Charles Dawson on the show, and had a lenthy career on stage and screen after the program's cancellation. Astredo speaks with Patrick McCray in this episode about using comedy to survive the Korean War, the diffrent perspectives between east coast and west coast acting schools, and how he landed his first role on DARK SHADOWS.
