'''Spike's Crypt''' is the term used to describe a particular crypt in the [[Sunnydale Cemetery]] that [[Spike]] made his home circa 2000-2002.

==History==
Before Spike moved out of [[Xander Harris|Xander]]'s basement in "[[A New Man]]", he said to [[Anya Jenkins]] that he would probably look for a crypt as a dwelling in one of Sunnydale's many cemeteries. He was then seen going around a cemetery, looking for a suitable place later in the same episode. In "[[The I in Team]]", when the interior of the crypt is first shown, it is mostly empty, and Spike is seen sleeping on a "bed" composed of a stone slab and a ratty old blanket.

Before Spike moved out of [[Alexander Harris|Xander]]'s basement in the [[Harris residence]], he said to [[Anya Jenkins|Anya]] he would probably look for a crypt as a dwelling in one of [[Sunnydale]]'s many cemeteries. He was then seen going around a cemetery, looking for a suitable place later in the same night. Spike considered the [[Alpert mausoleum]], as he was seen measuring its exterior.<ref>"[[A New Man]]"</ref>

He then moved to the Hawley mausoleum, which was significantly larger than the others in the cemetery. The interior was mostly empty except for its dusty urns, statues, and cobwebs. Spike would sleep on a stone slab and a ratty blanket,<ref name=":0">"[[The I in Team]]"</ref><ref>"[[New Moon Rising]]"</ref> and soon had his own television, which was broken by the [[Initiative]] soldier [[Forrest Gates|Forrest]].<ref>"[[Goodbye Iowa]]"</ref>
It is later revealed that a hole in the crypt floor leads into an underground cavern, which is part of Sunnydale's extensive network of tunnels, and which in the [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (season 5)|fifth season]] contains a small shrine dedicated to Buffy (composed of many pictures and objects that Spike had pilfered from her home). However, Buffy indirectly destroys this in "[[Crush]]" by punching Spike with enough force to send him flying into it.

During the summer following Buffy's death in "[[The Gift]]" the crypt's decoration goes through some conspicuous changes off-screen. Spike supposedly spent some time to turn it into a comfortable home, complete with a cable TV, refrigerator, lamps and various pieces of furniture, including an armchair acquired from Buffy's house<ref>[[After Life]]</ref>. At this point in the series - as shown in "[[After Life]]" and "[[Life Serial]]" - the lower level of the crypt also seems to be comfortably furnished and contains what looks to be a bar counter and a double size bed (latter notably seen in "[[Gone]]"). Its floor is covered by Persian carpets as shown in "[[Dead Things]]". In "[[As You Were]]" however, the furnishing of the lower lever gets destroyed in an explosion along with [[Suvolte Demon]]'s eggs after [[Riley]] discovers that Spike had been hiding the eggs there.

When Spike went to Africa to get his soul, he left [[Clem]] in possession of his crypt. The crypt is last seen in "[[Two to Go]]" - Spike was not seen to revisit the crypt after his return to Sunnydale in [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (season 7)|Season Seven]], instead staying first in the basement of the new [[Sunnydale High]] and briefly in [[Xander Harris' apartment|Xander's apartment]], and then in the basement of [[Summers residence|Buffy's house]]. In "[[Empty Places]]", Clem is seen fleeing Sunnydale, it is not known however whether he had been living in the crypt prior to his departure.

You know, this place is okay for a hole in the ground. You fixed it up.
―Buffy Summers[src]

Hawley mausoleum was a monument in the Restfield Cemetery that Spike made his home circa 2000–2002. It was the mausoleum for the tombs of Ethel, James, and other members of the Hawley family.

History

Before Spike moved out of Xander's basement in the Harris residence, he said to Anya he would probably look for a crypt as a dwelling in one of Sunnydale's many cemeteries. He was then seen going around a cemetery, looking for a suitable place later in the same night. Spike considered the Alpert mausoleum, as he was seen measuring its exterior.[1]

He then moved to the Hawley mausoleum, which was significantly larger than the others in the cemetery. The interior was mostly empty except for its dusty urns, statues, and cobwebs. Spike would sleep on a stone slab and a ratty blanket,[2][3] and soon had his own television, which was broken by the Initiative soldier Forrest.[4]

It was later revealed a hole in its floor, which led into an underground cavern, part of Sunnydale's extensive network of tunnels. It contained a shrine dedicated to Buffy, composed of many pictures and objects that Spike had pilfered from her home. After discovering it, Buffy indirectly destroyed this by punching Spike with enough force to send him flying into it.[5]

During the summer following Buffy's death, the crypt's decoration went through some conspicuous changes. Spike supposedly spent some time to turn it into a comfortable home, complete with a cable TV, refrigerator, lamps and various pieces of furniture, including an armchair acquired from Buffy's house.[6] At this point, the lower level of the mausoleum also seemed to be comfortably furnished, and containing what looked to be a bar counter and a double size bed.[7][8] Its floor was covered by Persian carpets.[9] Some time later, however, the furnishing of the lower lever got destroyed in an explosion along with Suvolte demon's eggs, after Riley caught Spike hiding the dangerous eggs there.[10]

When Spike went to Africa to get his soul, he left Clem in possession of his crypt.[11][12] Spike was not seen to revisit the mausoleum after his return to Sunnydale, instead staying first in the basement of the new Sunnydale High and briefly in Xander's apartment, and then in the basement of Buffy's house. When Clem flew from Sunnydale, however, it is not certain whether he had been living in the crypt prior to his departure.[13]

The Hawley mausoleum was destroyed along with the rest of Sunnydale, following the Spike's sacrifice at the battle at the Hellmouth.[14] Years later, Buffy and Spike visited the place in Sunnydale's crater, which prompted them to reflect about this phase of their lives.[15]
