Charity Trask is a character from the American gothic soap opera Dark Shadows (1966-1971). The daughter of Gregory and Minerva Trask, she worked at their school, Worthington Hall, as a teacher. Raised to be pious and buttoned-up, she was eventually possessed by the spirit of the recently-deceased Pansy Faye, causing her to adopt a cockney accent and a more footloose demeanor during bouts of Pansy's personality coming out.
