13 Buffy the Vampire Slayer Products You Need to Own Right Now
The first episode of Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer aired on March 10, 1997, giving us all the gift of the Slayer and her rag-tag group of monster-fighting pals. It’s been 20 years, but Buffy is still considered one of the best shows in TV history. In honor of its 20th anniversary, here are 13 nerd-tastic products you can buy to show off your love of Buffy Summers and her world-saving powers.
1. BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER: THE BOARD GAME; $40
Live out your Slayer dreams with this brand new board game that challenges you and your friends to fight the undead together. The game can be played with anywhere from one to six players, each one taking turns saving Sunnydale from evil as Buffy. Players work together to keep the town safe and unravel the plot to open the Hellmouth.

2. VAMPYR PHONE CASE; $15 AND UP
CustomizeMeAz via Etsy
You probably do about as much research on your phone as Buffy and Giles did in their Vampyr book. This rubber case will give your iPhone the gravitas worthy of its 21st-century library functions. If you’re looking for something a little fancier, there are also faux-leather folio cases for the Samsung Galaxy and iPhone.

3. "I’M A SLAYER" PIN; $3 AND UP
fableandblack via Etsy
Buffy may have been joking about owning a pin that declares “I’m a Slayer, ask me how!” but you don’t need to. Warn those beaus-to-be of your awesome powers before it’s too late. Bonus: It can be made into a pocket mirror for a few more dollars.

4. BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER COLORING BOOK; $9
Joss Whedon via Amazon
Nothing helps channel your feelings like coloring in some demons. This Buffy coloring book has 45 original illustrations inspired by the series, featuring intricate drawings of the Scooby Gang and all their supernatural enemies.

5. SUNNYDALE HIGH HOODIE; $31
FiftyEggs via Etsy
The Sunnydale class of ’99 was plagued with more than a few mysterious deaths, so making it to graduation was more than just an academic feat. This low-key, retro class sweatshirt will be a subtle hint to fellow Buffy enthusiasts that you’re ready to discuss the Hellmouth in detail.

6. FUNKO POP! BUFFY; $30
Funko via Amazon
Buffy and a few of her friends are available as Funko Pop! figurines. The collectible line includes Buffy, Spike (and Vampire Spike), Willow, Angel, Oz, and the demonic Gentlemen. Sorry, Xander isn’t among them. Funko has since retired the 2014 line, but you can still get your hands on a few online.

7. BUFFY LEATHER CLUTCH; $65 AND UP
LeatherworksByWillow via Etsy
Make a Slayer-inspired fashion statement with this leather clutch, which can come with straps or without. The tanned leather gives it a vintage vibe that’s very witch-chic. It doesn’t have room for a stake, but that’s probably a good thing.

GenuineDesignCo via Etsy
Celebrate your fandom without ruining those modernist apartment vibes with this typographic poster that celebrates all of your favorite Sunnydale hangouts, from The Bronze to the Magic Box.

9. THE BRONZE FLASK; $23
Buffy and her high school friends were underage during their best days at The Bronze, Sunnydale’s hottest club, so it’s a fitting place to honor while you’re throwing back some secretive shots from this stainless steel flask. Toast to The Bronze at all your favorite BYOB events. Note that there are plenty of Buffy drinking games to choose from, too.

10. SUNNYDALE LIBRARY SOY CANDLE; $13
FireflyCandlesCo via Etsy
Get a whiff of Giles’s territory thanks to the Firefly Candle Company, which makes a scent inspired by the Sunnydale Library. According to its creator, the candle smells like tea, mahogany, and old leather books. Just like everyone’s favorite Watcher.

11. BUFFY LAPTOP DECAL; $5
Pay tribute to the Slayer with a decal inspired by the Buffy logo. We’re not saying it will deter potential laptop thieves, but it will say “this person has watched a lot of fight scenes.”

12. WHAT WOULD BUFFY DO? CUFF; $20
fandomoniumdesigns via Etsy
Remind yourself to channel the powers of Buffy Summers with an aluminum cuff bracelet. What would Buffy do? Probably stake some baddies. You may not have any vampires available to slay, but that doesn’t mean you don’t need a reminder to be brave occasionally.

13. MR. POINTY PLUSH; $15
Sleep soundly at night sleeping with this plush version of Mr. Pointy, the trusty stake Buffy inherited from fellow slayer Kendra. Nothing says “cuddle me!” like a deadly weapon!
