AUDIBLE’S ‘’THE SLAYERS SOCIETY” ACTIVATION:
WHEN & WHERE:
Activation Dates & Times: Friday, October 13th from 5-8pm; Saturday, October 14th from 1-8pm; & Sunday, October 15th from 1-6pm
Location: 508 W 37th St., NYC (5-minute walk from Javits Center) *No NYCC badge required to attend!
WHAT:
NYCC attendees will step into the Buffyverse at “The Slayers Society,” an audio-led immersive experience showcasing new Audible Original, Slayers: A Buffyverse Story. At “The Slayers Society,” a meeting place for existing and wannabe Slayers, guests will grab a fortifying beverage from the Potion Bar, discover their destiny at Tarot Reading listening stations, train like a Slayer with a themed photo opp, enter a magical multiverse portal, and receive mystery Slayers swag.
Slayers: A Buffyverse Story is set to premiere October 12, 2023 on Audible, twenty years after the series finale of ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer.’ The scripted audio original picks up in the Buffyverse 10 years after the events of the final episode. Since then, Spike (James Marsters) has gone deep undercover in LA, convincing the forces of darkness that he’s back to his evil ways. When his cover is compromised by sixteen-year-old Indira Nunnally (Laya DeLeon Hayes), Spike finds himself on baby-slayer-sitting duty once more. While he attempts to track down a watcher for his eager new protégé, their paths collide with the veteran Slayer of a parallel reality where Buffy Summers never existed…a reality where Cordelia Chase (Charisma Carpenter) is the one-and-only Slayer. She needs Spike’s help with a classic big bad terrorizing her world…his old flame, Drusilla (Juliet Landau).
