Miss Edith was one of Drusilla's dolls, kept with her in Sunnydale in 1997. Drusilla often personified Miss Edith, the only doll referred to by name, describing her actions and needs as if she were alive.[1]
History[]
Drusilla kept Miss Edith in her bedroom at the Bric & Broc abandoned factory,[1][2][3] though she also carried the doll with her[4][5] and even took it to tea.[6] When Drusilla later moved into the Crawford Street mansion, she brought Miss Edith along.[5]
Drusilla would punish the doll for "speaking out of turn," claiming she was a "bad example" for the other dolls. She often gagged them with ribbons,[1] which Miss Edith wore most of the time.[3][5] Drusilla also deprived the doll of cakes and once turned her face away so she could not "watch" the siring of Sheila Martini.[1] Despite this, Miss Edith was later allowed to watch as Drusilla tortured Angel.[3] The doll was left behind in the mansion when Drusilla departed Sunnydale.[7]
In 2001, while at Wolfram & Hart Los Angeles branch, Drusilla held a similar blonde doll. She still carried it when Darla arrived, but appeared to drop it during their ensuing fight before escaping to the streets.[8] Later, when traveling by train to Sunnydale, Drusilla left another doll — this one brunette and blindfolded with a ribbon — in the cargo car so it could not watch her massacre the passengers.[9]
Behind the scenes[]
- The same prop for the doll appeared among Marcie Ross' belongings ("Out of Mind, Out of Sight").
- Miss Edith is an item included in Drusilla's Buffy the Vampire Slayer action figures and PALz figure set.
- In the non-canon novel Bloody Fool for Love, Edith is a Kukla demon who uses her ability to project her sense into inanimate objects, often porcelain dolls. Drusilla claimed she could hear Ed talking from inside a doll she had projected into and continued to do so even after the demon's death.
