It's the most wonderful fright of the year in S02E06 "Halloween". The Buffy Boys talk duality, gender play, and thirsty wigs when a cursed costume shop comes to sleepy ol' Sunnydale. But does Giles still hold a black flame candle for its enigmatic owner, Ethan?

Key Buffy Bits from this episode include:

• Integration and evolving identities through the lens of feminine expression
• Ambiguously murdered (?) children
• Queer joy: living as a minority is an act of defiance
• Tropes of 'secretly gay' men
• The danger of being a a hardcore girl who just wears lingerie and some form of animal ears
• "You may be hot stuff when it comes to demonology or whatever. But when it comes to dating, I'm the Slayer."
