This Halloween season has been especially exhausting for Buffy the Vampire Slayer ever since the vampires joined forces with the zombies. Buffy knew how to dispatch a vampire without breaking a sweat. But these zombies were another story. How do you kill the living dead? She could hear them pounding on the castle doors as she tried to collect her thoughts. She looked up and, as her eyes caught the flicker of the candle flame, an idea sparked in her brain. I think I still have some of those old flame throwers in the dungeon that Granny picked up from the Army Surplus Store. It’s a good thing I listened when she told me not to throw them out. She said I might need them someday. Granny you were so right!

Haha, that was some time ago. Makes me think that her granny was the original Buffy, and Buffy the granddaughter took the family business up only recently. Nice story!

Yes I liked the Buffy concept and I thought our lady in the gown looked like how Buffy might be dressed to confront the vampires and zombies. Thank You!

Those darn Zombies can be so annoying and they just leave their limbs hanging around anywhere they drop them…but they’re not too smart for Buffy!!! So fun!! Great fiction, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
