Pre-orders for the first official Buffy the Vampire Slayer makeup line, “It’s About Time” by Vampyre Cosmetics, are now open. Buffy fans can either have it shipped to their home, or pick it up at HellmouthCon in June, where original cast members Juliet Landau and Julie Benz, who played the legendary vampires Drusilla and Darla, will be available to sign the VAMPYR Book Palette.

HellmouthCon is the only Buffy convention to take place at the Sunnydale High School filming location. It will include photo ops, autographs, panels with Bloody FM podcasters Frank Bonnaci (Zoning Out), Christopher Feinstein (Haunted American History), and Shelby Novak (Scare You to Sleep), a guided tour of Buffy’s house, and more. A percentage of the con’s ticket sales will go to the Los Angeles LGBT Center and the Ron Glass Memorial Scholarship Fund.

Rachel Clinesmith, the founder of Vampyre Cosmetics says, “Buffy fans are intelligent, wonderful, open-minded, fun, creative people. We thought about them at every step of the process. This campaign has everything Buffy fans love – I know ‘cause I am one. It’s also an exciting, fresh evolution. It’s a continuation and an exploration. Every generation has one Slayer. But hopefully all generations will love this specially tailored makeup line!”

Buffy fans can choose either the 45 shade VAMPYR Book Palette by itself, or the entire collection, which includes:

  • a two sided removable magnetic print from an exclusive photoshoot with Julie Benz & Juliet Landau
  • the VAMPYR Book Palette
  • 3 crossheart liquid lipstick shades
  • a velvet mirror compact
  • a waterproof gel eyeliner in an ink pot

Daryl Dixon’s Dog from “The Walking Dead” Has Passed Away

Published

on

The real-life canine who portrayed Daryl Dixon’s (Norman Reedus) pet “Dog” on “The Walking Dead,” a Belgian Shepherd whose real name was Seven, has sadly passed away this week.

Variety notes that Seven “appeared in 26 episodes, including the series finale.”

Norman Reedus has shared a handful of behind the scenes photos to his Instagram (@bigbaldhead), paying tribute to the canine companion that he calls the “best TV buddy ever.”

Seven’s stint on “The Walking Dead” began in Season 9, originally the pet of the character Leah Shaw. In the wake of the character’s disappearance, Daryl adopts the dog as his own.

It was Reedus who reportedly pushed for his character to have a canine pal on the show.

You were a very good boy, Seven. May you rest in peace.
