“My name is Victoria Winters…”

I was left at the Hammond Foundling Home. I was called to a place called Collinwood to be Governess to David Collins. This journey may help me find out who I am and where I belong.

Vicki started to smell the familiar scent of Josette, jasmine. Her perfume. “Do you smell that?” She looked around then at Barnabas and David, “Do you smell it? Josette? Are you here?” 3/3

She wanted to explore but felt a bit awkward asking. Everything was perfect as if Josette could come walking in the door of her room and sit down at the vanity. Vicki examined the vanity, running her hand gently over some of its contents. 2/3

Vicki had walked somewhat gingerly behind Barnabas and David as they reached Josette’s room. She hesitated as she crossed the threshold and was in her room. She looked around, “This room has everything a woman could want,” She smiled. She always had a fascination with Josette. 1/3

Somehow the portrait came to life, or so it seemed. She looked at David then at Barnabas. She could see that Barnabas was gazing up at Angelique’s portrait with a look never quite seen from Barnabas before. She paused, “Barnabas, do you smell that? It smells like jasmine.” 2/2

Vicki held her candle up a bit higher and the room became ever so slightly brighter. The light reflected off of her portrait and there was a twinkle in her eyes as she gazed up at it. 1/2

She looked at David to hear his response. After all, her ghost always appeared to David more than anyone else. Sometimes though it was scary the way Vicki felt so close to her. 2/2

Victoria gently took the drink and thanked him then took a sip before speaking, “Barnabas, David isn’t the only one…to feel Josette’s presence. I have as well recently.” She looked at David then back at Barnabas, “I don’t know…sometimes I feel her presence as if she was in this room.” 1/2

“It seems strange to talk about Barnabas Collins to you, him being your namesake.” 2/2

Vicki took a seat and shook her head, “No thank you, I don’t want you to go to any trouble.” He motioned to David to take a seat, “Barnabas Collins must have been a very special man,” she let out a chuckle. 1/2

He looked up at Barnabas then back down at David, “David would you like to accept Cousin Barnabas’ invitation?” He placed her hand on David’s shoulder, “As long as we are not imposing,” he replied to Barnabas in a tender tone. 2/2

Vicki looked sympathetically at Barnabas after a dear friend of his fell ill, “Oh, Barnabas I’m sorry. I hope they are doing better.” She offered a smile before turning her attention to David. She thought maybe David being with Barnabas for a bit might calm his thoughts about him. 1/2
March 16, 2025 at 4:26 PM
She felt awkward as her eyes met Barnabas’ gaze, “I’m sorry for just barging in like this. David still seems to consider this a playground.” 2/2
March 1, 2025 at 4:38 PM
“Hello Barnabas, I hope we didn’t disturb you,” she nudged David, “David I’m sure he had a good reason why he didn’t make it.” Maybe David was holding a grudge? She wasn’t sure. 1/2

“Did it ever occur to you that Barnabas may be busy with business in Bangor?” She asked before the candles caught her gaze. She noticed David jumped when they brushed shoulders and gently laid a hand on his shoulder. 2/2
February 16, 2025 at 4:28 PM
Vicki couldn’t help but get a laugh at David’s attitude, “David, you do realize that people have jobs or sometimes are just busy with life?” When they got to, and walked inside the Old House she took a glance around to see if Willie was there. 1/2
February 16, 2025 at 4:23 PM
She looked at David and then the door to the Old House, “Even with the key, do you think it’s a good idea. Barnabas could be busy.” 2/2

Vicki strolled along as she tried to keep pace with David, “Well, that’s quite a switch,” she couldn’t help but laugh, “I’m glad you’re not breaking in anymore.” She stood by him and watched him get the key. 1/2

“Well, why don’t we bring her a fresh, thriving flower?” She smiled as she watched David rush to get ready, “Ready when you are, David!”

“Burke, I won’t be long,” she finished buttoning her coat, “Let’s go, David!” 2/2
January 13, 2025 at 6:22 PM
Vicki put the wilting flower in the vase and gave Burke a smile, “I’m sure Burke won’t mind if I go with you to see Josette. I owe her so much, after all, she helped me when Matthew Morgan was keeping me prisoner.” Vicki got up and cleared the dishes then grabbed her coat. 1/2
January 13, 2025 at 6:19 PM
Vicki noticed the flower, “David, I think this flower needs some water or it won’t have any petals left.”

While we have lots of "previously, on Twitter" backstory, we are endeavoring to recap important plot points for those just joining us. Much like the original soap opera! 🦇📺

“Don’t you remember, David? When Mathew Morgan held me captive in the Old House she came to me and told me not to be afraid.” Vicki sat down at the table with Burke and David.
