Please answer the question:
In the episode of "Buffy vs. Dracula," Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 5, Episode 1, we are presented with a look at Count Dracula that is both humorous and serious. He asserts that a vampire slayer's power is, like his own, rooted in darkness. Is there some truth to what he says? How does this vampire/slayer pairing compare to the original versions?
