There are not a lot of ways to kill a vampire. While decapitation and exposure to direct sunlight will do, the preferred method of most Vampire Slayers throughout the ages has always been a good old-fashioned wooden stake through the heart. Of course, any sharp and pointy wooden object can be used– a pencil, a table leg, a pool cue – but there’s just no substitute for a well-whittled stake to rid yourself of that undead pest. Now, you can bring home a stake of your own, as Factory X presents the The Slayers’ Stake – a striking prop replica that pays tribute to the Slayers who’ve kept the world safe from evil all through the millennia. Made of actual, hand-carved wood, The Slayer’s Stake comes in a handsome satin-lined, black wooden box. The outside of the box is adorned with an attractive brass plaque, and the inside of the lid features the now-famous words, Into every generation a Slayer is born, one girl in all the world, a chosen one... While the artisans at Factory X had numerous stakes to choose from, they opted to replicate of one of the earliest stakes used on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Featured prominently in the show’s first season, this stake was also used extensively in promotional shots for the show.
