Celebrity Deathmatch
Season 2
"This way, not only will I kill you, but I can make sure you don't come back as a blood-sucking freak!"
Gellar in Season 2.
In her first appearance, Gellar appears in the episode The Unknown Murderer as a combatant of the Main Event, fighting against fellow actress Neve Campbell. In this fight, she tries stabbing Campbell with a wooden stake, picked up on the set of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but otherwise fails to land a direct hit on her opponent, instead being on the receiving end when Campbell starts hitting her with a steak. Their fight is interrupted when they hear a telephone ringing at the side of the ring; the murderer, who has been stalking and killing various actresses throughout the episode, is supposedly revealed to be the new mascot, Slappy the Platypus. Gellar and Campbell decide to team up and take down the murderer when he escapes Deathmatch security by entering the ring. After knocking out the mascot and attempting to remove the mask, it is revealed that the mascot is actually a real platypus, and the real murderer merely planted the phone on it to evade detection.
Season 3
"Oh, are you a real vampire? Like, I'm so sure..."
Attempting to kill the vampire.
Gellar appears in the episode Halloween Episode II. While she is a combatant for the second time, her fight is not scheduled and she is originally just a member of the audience. When a vampire starts attacking Nick Diamond, however, Gellar emerges and offers to fight the vampire to the death. Early on in the fight, however, she attempts to drive a stake into the vampire's heart, only to discover that his waistcoast is lined with steel plating, thus splintering her only stake. Sarah continues to fight, employing various techniques that are supposed to be effective against vampires, but after wearing him down, the vampire transforms into a bat and chases her. Desperate to flee, Gellar starts running down the aisle toward the exit, but the vampire quickly catches up to her, bites her on the neck and drains her of her blood, killing her.
