Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Haunted #1

In "Haunted, Part 1," Buffy is haunted by a disturbing dream in which Faith stabs her—leaving her unsettled even after waking. Meanwhile, the spirit of Principal Snyder, now able to possess dead bodies, takes over a vampire in a deadly bid to end Buffy’s reign. Written by Jane Espenson and brought to life by Cliff Richards’ art, with inks by Júlio Ferreira, colors by Jeromy Cox, and letters by Clem Robins, this 2001 Dark Horse issue sets a chilling tone with its eerie premise and unsettling twists. The cover, penciled by Richards and inked by Ferreira, captures the tension with a haunting visual.
