17-year-old Buffy Summers has just lost her mom and finds herself relocating from L.A. to a small town called Sunnydale, to live with her estranged relative, Great Aunt Agatha. In this strange town, Buffy begins to learn about her mother’s past, and realizes she may not have known her mother as well as she thought she did. Could it be that the bedtime stories her mother used to tell her, about supernatural beings, were more than just stories? In a town where nobody is who they seem, and where things previously thought of as unreal ARE real, Buffy finds herself drawn to the most foreboding person of them all: Aunt Agatha’s caretaker and long-time friend, Spike.
