For a group of vampire hunting teens, the mocking of vampire movies is an absolute must. The most dark and bloody drama becomes a comedy if you know the truth about vampires. But there is one movie they don't mock, one movie they love to watch and so they watch it again and again. That is "Dance of the Vampires" from Roman Polanski, a fun comedy that was mocking all the stereotypes of horror movies.
And because of that, Xander had decided to go as a character of the movie this halloween. Which one he didn't know, yet, since he didn't know what the costum shop was having for sale, but he would find something, of that he was certain.
Willow laughed as she saw his costume, Buffy did so too, both having recognized the one he was posing as quite quickly (no doubt because of the fact that they had rewatched the movie only yesternight).
Ethan had told him that he had gotten the costume from a sale of old theater costumes and that he could sell it to him at the cheap price he was demanding cause no one else had had the right height.
Xander hadn't really cared about his explanations, he was happy that he had gotten his costume so cheaply and that it fit so well with his plans. There had been some minor adjustments he had to make, but then it was perfect.
As the spell swept through the town, changing children and adults into their costumes, he looked around, bewildered, before he decided that it didn't really mattered and started to walk into one direction randomly, quitely singing under his breath:
"I've been looking for an original sin
One with a twist and a bit of a spin
And since I've done all the old ones
Till they've all been done in
Now I'm just looking then I'm gone with the wind
Endlessly searching for an original sin"
