I sat down with Nicholas Brendon, "Xandar" from the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"TV series and
currently the hit CBS TV show "Criminal Minds" at the Sacramento Horror & Sci Fi convention on
9/24/2011. Nicholas was incredibly nice and humble and allowed me to ask him a few questions about his life...
Q- What was one of your favorite moments from the "Buffy" series?
A- Booking it! I was 25 years old sitting there waiting to go to breakfast. I got the call and was really excited. I was
still hungry so I went on to breakfast, but I ate my omelet with much more verve that day!

Q- How did you like being a vampire on the "Buffy" episode entitled, "The Wish"?
A- It was fun for a one-time thing but I prefer being more of the geek on the show. Being a brooding vampire
wasn't my thing.

Q- I interviewed Kristy Swanson from the original movie, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", have you ever met her?
A- No, I haven't, but she's great.
Shannon- "My great friend Carol Gillis has a huge "Buffy: collection. She just loves you!"
Nicholas- "Really? Tell her i Love her too!"
Q- Do you have any projects you'd like to promote?
A- It was fun for a one-time thing but I prefer being more of the geek on the show. Being a brooding vampire

(Catch "Criminal Minds" on CBS Wed. nights 9/8c)
Q- What does your character do on "Criminal Minds"?
A- I am a techie.
Shannon- I own a paranormal company called, H.P.I. International, we do all sorts of paranormal
investigations (headed up by Paul Dale Roberts) and I always ask my interview guests this one thing...
Q- Do you believe in ghosts?
A- Yes! Of course.
Q- Have you ever had anything weird happen to you?
A- Yeah, but I don't really want to talk about it in public.
Shannon- Understood.
Nicholas- I really like that show, "Ghost Adventurers". I was watching it last night (9/23) and Zak and Steve
were investigating this place with a tower. Steve was up in the tower and they showed this black shadow
figure thing in the camera. It was spooky.
Q- would you like me to send you some real ghost evidence from H.P.I.?
A- Yeah!
Shannon- Thank you so much for sitting down with me, Nicholas. I really appreciate the interview and am a
very big fan of your work! I'll be sending you some ghosty evidence real soon!
Sincerely,
Shannon McCabe
