Sarah Michelle Gellar’s Home Sale Crashed, and the Internet Is Convinced It's Because of a 'Buffy' Demon Real Estate Curse
LOS ANGELES — In what real estate agents are calling “the most slayable listing of the year,” Sarah Michelle Gellar’s former Los Angeles home has hit the market, and the internet can’t stop laughing. The property, a five-bedroom estate once owned by the *Buffy the Vampire Slayer* star, has gone viral not for its infinity pool or chef’s kitchen, but for its alleged “stake in the ground” pricing. Local memelords have dubbed it the “Sunnydale Syndrome,” joking that any home tied to Gellar must include a mandatory Hellmouth inspection. One Zillow commenter wrote, “The HOA is weak to sunlight—they hold regular meetings in a crypt.” The irony? Gellar listed the house shortly after an unsealed basement room was found, which fans insist is a “Vampire Nest.” Memorabilia from the set was included, but buyers allegedly walked out when they saw the price tag—and a suspiciously placed wooden fence. “It's not a bargain, it's a body count,” a Reddit thread read. The listing agent declined to comment, but the real estate group released a statement: “We promise the only bloodsucking here is the interest rate.”
