I don't recall ever seeing this but it's awesome, and it definitely brings back the nostalgic vibes. 😍

That would've been a rad contest to win. Getting staked in an episode?

Did someone ever actually win that?

I kinda remember it. I think it came out in the fall of 1997, so, S2 pre-Angelus. It could have been S3 post-hell, but, I really don't think so.

Either way, it perfectly captured the total coolness aura surrounding Buffy at the time.

I read somewhere that it was filmed in late August or early September so everybody was sweating profusely from the wintery clothing. Good times.

I never did hear about it, I promise not to lose any sleep because I missed it.

Thanks for posting this, Joan! Don't recall seeing this before. I note Dracula made use of the phone, probably to call his butt-monkey (Xander) for assistance. 😁
