Welcome Back to 'DITA's-DEN!' Tis, I your 'MISS SHOCKTOBER', DITA DIRT NAP!

 Way back in March of this year DITA promised she revisit the 'BUFFY-VERSE'. So No time like the present for the 'Halloween-Season'. In keeping w/that theme, I bring you the First 'Halloween-Episode' of; 'BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER' TV-Series Witch did not appear until Season 2. In fact that officially when DITA became hooked was on this fun/scary Episode simply entitled; 'HALLOWEEN'.

Before I start take a look at the TV-SPOT for it which Aired in October of 1997, which in 2027 will celebrate its 30th Anniversary. See 'BUFFY'-'HALLOWEEN' Season 2, Episode 6 TV-SPOT Here, my little 'Blood-Bags'> https://youtu.be/jSxg2NSU50Q?si=gwtp5rLeL1uqOGMR 

This 'fang-tastic' Episode starts out w/BUFFY fighting a Vamp in none other than a pumpkin-patch. How wonderfully appropriate. She even kills the Vamp with a wooden pumpkin-patch advertisement sign as a handy-dandy stake. See pumpkin patch Fight here> https://youtu.be/FGHCPFwhbys?si=MCQmijT59QhbFy0M   So let DITA says this Episode has a lesson to learn in it that teaches you how important it is to be your self and to 'not' try and be like other people.

Well kids, the 'Scooby-Gang' go to shop for Halloween costumes at a new store in Sunnydale. You know the kind that pops up in September and leaves town after Halloween is over. BTW; DITA forgot to mention after the 'pumpkin-patch' brawl, that makes her late for her date w/Angel , the Vampire with a Soul. Cordielia sees Angel all by his lonesome since fighting Vamps made Buffy late, Cordy, w/her vapid, shallow self tries to get him interested in her.  It is at this point Buffy arrives for her pre-planned date, looking askew w/even hay in her hair. Buffy sees Cordy talking up Angel and starts to leave but Angel catches her.

You see that gives Buffy the idea that Angel may like feminine helpless girls. Cut to the afore-mentioned Halloween Costume shop where she spots a helpless Princess Costume from 1775. The creepy Manager of the store talks her into getting it witch plays into Buffy's idea that she sometimes just wants to be a girl w/nice clothes, very put-together and ultra feminine. Remember what the Episode tries to teach about just being yourself.
Hmmm? Meanwhile, Xander ends up dressing as an 'army-man'/soldier.

On to Willow, she first tries to pick a boring ghost-costume until Buffy tells her to stop trying to cover up/hide herself. Back at Buffy's house she gets Willow to wear a sexy outfit w/abs exposed, black leather mini-skirt and more. Willow does but when Xander comes in , you see Willow walking down the stairs wearing the sexy outfit under that damn Ghost outfit.

Any-Boo, they all go out taking grade school kids w/them 'trick-or-treating', demanded by even creepier Principal Skinner. BTW; DITA forgot to mention that Cordy ends up of course dressing as a Sexy cat, 'BUT', she gets her costume some where else. Hmmm?

Meanwhile the Halloween Costume shop owner w/big 'ick-factor' has closed the shop and is seen performing a spell inside that will make all the costumes rented from his shop transform everyone in these magical costumes into whatever their dressed as. So Xander becomes a real-life Soldier, Buffy a real life helpless Princess from 1775, and Willow as a Ghost. In Willows case it happens as she w/the kids trick-or-treating,
She faints, falls dead on the porch, and then her soul rises up and out of her ghost costume. As you would expect the excitement, action and Hilarity ensues, my little 'rotted jack-o-lanterns!

Before DITA forgets, later in the episode towards the end we see Willow crossing the street in her Sexy outfit in front of Oz as he sits in his car at the crosswalk and says; 'Who is that Girl?' Oz, btw is a Werewolf in the show.

Now enter Spike, uh, the resident bad Vampire who finds out during all the Halloween-mayhem that Buffy the Slayer is now helpless and no longer has her Slayer fighting-skills. So now we have Buffy who gets the vapors and faints at the mayhem going on this night in Sunnydale, Xander who is now taking control w/his real gun that used to be a toy, and Cordy who is still a 'dippy-shit' but is not affected by the spell, she just her annoying usual self and the whole town running amok and people being attacked until Spike comes w/his whole motely-crue.

First he chases the 'Scooby-Gang' in a where house where they've barricaded themselves. Vamp; Spike and his crew break down the door and chase them into an alley. Its there that he terrifies helpless Princess Buffy, turns into his scary Vamp-face complete w/big fangs and then, and then........................???

Right at this pivotal TV drama moment the Creepy Costume store Manager is getting his ass kicked by Giles, Buffy's Watcher, and forces him to tell him how to break the Spell ASAP!  Come to find out these two men know each other and the Manager calls him; 'THE RIPPER?' DUN, DUN, DUN! Hmmm?

Long story short the Creepy acquaintance of Giles tells him to break the spell by smashing something in the shop and quicker than you can say ;'SMELL MY FEET!' The Spell ends, just as evil old Spike is about to sink his fangs into the Slayer neck. He pulls her black wig off and poof, she's Buffy the Vampire-Slayer once again and first says; 'Hi Honey, I'm home', then proceeds to kick his nasty vamp-ass but good!  Spike then puts his tail between his legs and runs away to fight another day as well as 'vodee-oh-doe' her in the future seasons!

At the close of the episode you see good Vamp-Angel asking her why she thought he'd like her dressed like that. She says she just wanted to be a girl once in awhile and he tells her he didn't like the Girls from the century he was a teenager as they were moronic , I believe was one of the words he used. So you see DITA was right about the lesson that was learned by Buffy being only herself and Willow learned not to cover up all the time to hide as in 'on-down-the-road' Episodes ,she wins the Werewolf's heart.

DITA loved re-watching this 'Halloween-Episode' and will Review More Halloween Episodes of this phenomenal show w/heart as well as DITA-Faves from this horror-rific horror/comedy drama show that DITA is a longtime Fan of for Life!
