Hi, Stakes!
Meet Buffy's new Slaymate.
SLAY TIME
Kids may remember Michelle Trachtenberg as the perky, pint size detective in 1996's "Harriet the Spy," but little ones, take note: Her latest role is less about sleuthing than slaying. The young actress (who turns 15 next month) recently joined the cast of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. As Dawn, a surrogate sister to the Buffster, she gets more than her fair share of teen angst when dark forces use her as a handy human loud speaker for their nasty thoughts. EW.com talked to the 10th grader about her new gig, her history with Sarah Michelle Gellar, and her ideas for a cool Halloween costume.
