Garlic

Traditionally, garlic is supposed to ward off vampires, though no explanation is properly given why. Buffy uses garlic, hoping to put off Spike if he tries to go to her house, in Wrecked. She also hung garlic in her room in Passion, when Angel was a threat.

      Has anyone read Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend? The book centres on a character named Robert Neville, who is seemingly the only person left alive after everyone in the surrounding area become vampires. In the book, Neville attempts to discover why vampires are afraid of garlic, but never properly comes to a conclusion. Fabulous read, well recommended.

      Oh!
      I’ve read it, but It was a litle slow wasn’t?
      At least for my taste…

      I enjoyed it, had a really odd scientific approach to the whole vampire thing, but in a quaintly dated way. They’re doing a remake I think.
