OP

(Anonymous) 2020-04-25 07:37 am (UTC)(link)
It took me a minute to remember how Buffy used a soul in reference to a vampire, but in that context I may have just worded my secret a little poorly. Like the episode was about summoning a persons spirit for whatever reason, and the main group of vampires thought it would be a laugh to ouija their own ghosts just for fun. As far as the series depicts, vampirism is more of a curse than a possession. They have all the same quirks and attitudes that they had when they were alive, the only difference it that they have physical vampiric traits. Technically, Collin (the only one who didn't summon a ghost) existing as a 'day walker' and as an emotional vampire sort of gives me the impression that, if anything, vampirism is more of an infection/disease than a demon existing in the hosts body.

I guess I should have used spirit instead of soul, since arguably being turned might technically corrupt the soul as the body dies.
Like I know I am way too overthinking this, but part of the show pokes fun at existing mythology surrounding vampires so it really just threw me off I guess.
(if any of this makes sense that is...)
