10 Outrageous Ways Famous TV Characters Came Back From The Dead
3. Buffy Was Saved By Magic – Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Joss Whedon strikes again, but of all the characters you’d expect to die on Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Buffy herself would be near the bottom of the list.
She Was Dead...: In the season five finale Buffy has to stop an interdimensional portal being opened, which would unleash literal hell on earth. An easy fix would be killing her sister, whose blood is the key to opening it, but that’s not Buffy’s style. She realises that she can stop it herself, and hurls herself into the portal to close it.
Her friends later gather around her lifeless body, and she’s buried with a headstone that reads “She saved the world. A lot."
...But She Got Better: Her friends decide they have to bring her back in season six, fearing she’s now trapped in hell. They successfully revive her using magic, only to realise she was actually at peace in heaven the whole time.
She’s traumatised by being ripped from pure happiness and thrust back into a world of pain and suffering, and slips into a severe depression because of it. Way to go friends!
