Buffy Question

[gayalondiel_bak]

In Buffx 1.02 "The Harvest" when Buffy goes to get her supplies (and gets grounded) she has a case full of vampire fighting stuff like crosses and holy water, stakes, and a big jar of communion wafers with no indication of whether they had been consecrated.

In Dracula, one of Van Helsing's key tools is using the Host to keep vampires from moving from place to place and of course burning Mina on the head. I was just wondering, is that a nice nod to Van Helsing or do we ever actually see Buffy use the Host against any vampires?

Just after Willow finds her dead fish in s2 (Passion, perhaps?) she goes for a sleepover with Buffy. There's a shot of them in a garlic-festooned bed holding stakes. I don't think it sees much use otherwise, though.

Good point. And pleasing too; garlic is most significant in Dracula when it is used to protect Lucy Westenra in her sickbed.
