Tara’s blood

Amber Benson on filming Tara’s death scene:

“They had trouble because the fake blood was so thin. It didn’t have body to it; it was just water. It would hit Willow’s shirt, and the shirt would just suck the whole thing up. It would be like a big stain. So they had to basically Scotch-Guard her shirt and figure out how to get it one way and make it stay that way. Alyson had to have that done a bunch of times. It was really intense.
I had my cake afterwards. I was dead the last episode, so when they brought me the cake to say thank you for Tara, and it says, ‘Tara’ and it has a headstone and it says, ‘Rest in Peace’, I was in tears. Everybody was crying, because it was so sad.”
