Lara Parker, who rose to fame playing the intelligent and conniving witch Angelique Bouchard Collins in the TV series 'Dark Shadows,' died Thursday at age 84.
Lara Parker, who starred as the intelligent and conniving witch Angelique Bouchard in ABC's gothic TV soap opera 'Dark Shadows,' died Thursday at her home in L.A. She was 84. Parker's 'Dark Shadows' co-star Kathryn Leigh Scott shared the news in a Facebook post. 'I have sad news ... my beautiful, beloved friend Lara Parker passed away Thursday, Oct. 12,' Scott wrote. 'I'm heartbroken, as all of us are who knew and loved her.
The duo were locked in a love/hate relationship throughout the series, with an emphasis on hate, as Parker's character often made the lovelorn vampire's life a living hell. More than 40 years after the show's cancellation, Parker reprised the role of Angelique in Tim Burton's 2012 movie adaptation of 'Dark Shadows,' which starred Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Michelle Pfeiffer and Chloë Grace Moretz.
