We're currently living in berkeley, originally from NYC and might be moving back there this fall, (new slayer on the way...) and we don't do road trips too often so this might have been our only chance for a long, long time. Gotta tell you, seeing the Buffy house gave us chills. Like a trekker suddenly seeing the bridge.

That's cool. I wouldn't know where to find a couple of those spots (and I'm from Cali) - you totally have my geek respect.

That is awesome! I love looking for movie / tv locations. A few years ago I wrote an article about the Dogma film locations. Its a lot of fun

It's weird seeing those and there's no Buffy characters. I thought Buffy's house was a set? I'm confused, lol. They're wicked though so thanks for posting those :)

That is total awesomeness. Im so envious.

Oh and the deal with the house is the owners gave them the rights to use the house for outside shots and the like, for when they needed to be on location. But after the season 3 finale the ownerssaid they made to much noise (explosions and the like) and they were no longer aloud to use the house for the show. From then on the show only every used sets. You can notice the change in quality of the picture sometimes when they briefly use a shot from an earlier season of the house.
:D

there actually are some scenes (few) in later seasons though when they were there. After Tara gets shot and Willow comes out of the house when Buff is being loaded in the ambulance is the real house I believe...

"Ever wonder where they shoot the cemetery scenes for "Buffy"? Well, it isn't always in a real cemetery. (The producers set up some fake headstones in the parking lot of their Santa Monica studio.) But most of the scenes that were obviously shot in a large cemetery are usually shot at the Angelus-Rosedale Cemetery, located at 1831 W. Washington Blvd., just south of Koreatown. It's a very real cemetery, and one of the oldest in Los Angeles."

So, the cemetery where she met Angel and boft'd Spike was the Angelus cemetery? Some times real life is just too cool :D

P.S. Oh, and the seat of power for the demonic Wolfram and Hart is actually the Sony Building ... hmm, I bet many people in Hollywood would agree :rolleyes:

I know John, Paul, George, and Ringo sure would agree.

Wow, I totally forgot about visiting TV/movie landmarks when i visit in September...I am going to have to find out the locations for Halloween and these Buffy ones as well. My daughter is also a huge Buffy fan, so, I can make it a surprise for her or something.

Although we'll probably get there, and I'll just get a roll of the eyes, and a "whatever Dad...":lol

Congratulations! Very cute. You can tell right now, that you will be fighting off her suitors in about 15-17 years time. :)
