With Halloween just around the corner, ghosts, ghouls, and other spooky things are very much on my mind, especially as it means I now only have one week to come up with a costumes for me, my husband, and my daughter. It’s also on the mind of Billy from Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer, who posted this question for his weekly Blog Hop…

You accidentally unleashed ghouls from a novel and they are now running amok. What fictional hero (book or film) would you like to help you defeat the ghouls?

I didn’t have to give this one much thought. It would be Buffy Summers, Vampire Slayer, because I don’t think there is a creature of the night (or day) she hasn’t defeated.  In my ideal world, we’d fight Bram Stoker’s Dracula, one of my favourite novels and ultimate scary character but any big bad would do.

Why Buffy? Because I love that she is a strong female character and think she is a real role model for younger girls. I never get tired of re-watching the shows (yes, I’m a geek).  Plus she looks good whilst fighting evil and is funny with it.  I mean, at the end of the day, what’s the point of saving the world if you can’t laugh about it…

“I was kind of unsure about where the party was.  And then I saw the flashing red lights and the ambulance, an it’s like, oh right, of course. Carnage. Death. It’s a Buffy party.
