![]() ![]() Just like the title suggests, fears are majorly highlighted throughout the ep. “Fear Itself” is a classic and it’s not just because it captures the spirit of Halloween. “Fear Itself” ( Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season 4, Episode 4) (The WB)Īs much as season 4 is my least favorite season, there are still episodes that I love, including this iconic episode. Also, the scene with the kids turning into demons because of their costumes is still hilarious as hell. Bonus is Spike (James Marsters) trying to take advantage of Buffy’s vulnerability, only to get his ass kicked when she’s herself again. Overall this episode gives us humor, Sarah Michelle Gellar’s attempt at a British accent, Willow (Alyson Hannigan) and Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) wearing iconic costumes, Xander (Nicholas Brendon) being useful, and a cute Bangel (Buffy and Angel) moment at the end. Having Ethan Rayne (Robin Sachs) be the messy bitch he is by literally casting a spell that turns people into their costumes is everything. ![]() Especially since season 2 is up there in terms of the best seasons of the show. “Halloween” is one of those episodes that most Buffy fans think fondly about. That’s right, I’m making a bold statement off the bat. Not including this episode would render this whole list useless. Alright, let’s do the monster mash! “Halloween” ( Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season 2, Episode 6) (The WB/Tumblr) No, I’m not including animated series and I may have missed something worthy. Some of these series straddle the lines of other genres, though every one of these Halloween episodes have a certain level of scariness to them. What can I say? I’m a nerd for the genre. But what I’m talking about is-you guessed it-horror series. It’s also easy to talk about iconic series like Courage the Cowardly Dog (every episode could be Halloween). It’s easy to mention It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown because who doesn’t know about that? To some it’s iconic and that’s fine. And what’s also valid is indulging in Halloween episodes. Every celebration is valid in its own way. After all, there are several ways to celebrate, like Samhain, Day of the Dead (Día de Muertos) etc. Of course, this month has much excitement, depending on how you celebrate the month of October. Therefore, once this time of year rolls around it feels like another month. ![]() ![]() We exist in a consistent state of creepiness one way or another. For us horror nerds the fact remains: Halloween is all year round. ![]()
