10 Buffy The Vampire Slayer And Angel Plots That Were Never Resolved

3. Amy Madison

Buffy Amy Season 1
Fox

Elisabeth Ann Allen appeared in almost every season of Buffy The Vampire Slayer as Amy Madison, the initially innocent and then increasingly derranged witch, who the Scoobie Gang save from a body swap back in season one. They came to regret their actions over time, though none moreso than Willow, who unarguably suffers the most from her relationship to Amy.

Trapped as a rat for several seasons, Amy is finally made human again by Willow, as the latter grows increasingly dependant on her magic. Amy, however, while seemingly grateful to Willow for saving her, reveals that she is not the friend she lets herself on to be. Far from it, in fact.

Her first assault on Willow is to aid the witch in sinking deeper into her addiction and then, once that fails to destroy Willow entirely, curses her to become Warren - the man flayed alive.

She is revealed as the culprit and then - nothing. There is no resolution here, no depiction of what came next. Is Amy still free and roaming, creating havoc wherever she can? Has Willow managed to stop her from causing more harm?

Amy Madison is a player far too powerful to be left to tip the scales unchecked.
