  • In the summer of 1971, bizarre occurrences began to take place at Collinwood. Quentin began behaving very strangely, and he became prone to psychotic fits of violence. Claire and Alex grew very concerned for his well-being and feared that Tracy might be in danger so long as she was around him. On July 1st, the Jenkins took a trip to the Burton Art Gallery in New York City. They found a painting of a man who was the spitting image of Quentin. This was in fact his ancestor, Charles Collins, and was painted some time in the 19th century. Claire began to suspect that some sort of supernatural phenomenon was taking place at Collinwood. She soon learned that the ghost of a 19th century witch named Angelique Collins had been haunting Quentin in an effort to revitalize the spirit of her old lover, Charles Collins. Angelique’s ghost tried to kill the Jenkins on several occasions. Claire was barely in time to rescue her husband from his car during one of Angelique’s spectral attacks. As things grew more and more dangerous around Collinwood, Claire invited Tracy to stay at their home where she would be safe. A demented stable hand named Gerard Stiles broke into the Jenkins cottage in an effort to kidnap Tracy. Claire shot Gerard in the face, but he managed to survive and abduct Tracy from the house. Before long, Claire and Alex came to believe that Quentin was successful in exorcising the harmful spirits from his home and person. Despite that however, they decided to leave Collinsport and take a well-earned vacation at the Cape. As they drove away, their car skidded off the road into a ditch and both Alex and Claire were killed in the crash. Witnesses reported seeing a ghostly white smoke filling the vehicle as it veered off of the highway.
