Jeremiah was nephew to Barnabas Collins (Jonathan Frid) who intended to marry ] (Kathryn Leigh Scott). However, Barnabas had a last minute fling on Martinique in 1795 with Josette's maid, Angelique. Josette was never wiser, even to her death; But when Angelique heard from Barnabas that He, Barnabas Collins intended to wed Josette instead, anyhow and that she, Angelique was a mere fling, Angelique became vexed, (Angry, even) and hexed Jeremiah, placing him in her thrall so she married him instead.
After Barnabas Collins learned this, Barnabas and Jeremiah fought in a duel in which Barnabas shot him; later he would die at 2:00 A.M.
