Greetings! just read your story seeing things. thought it was very charming. thanks! And thanks for your other stories I have enjoyed as well such as the alternate season 6 series
mmm I' going with wood though I really think it's a combination of wood and metal but I'm not sure now, and when I try to think about Dead Things to recall a texture I can't seem to get a clear picture of that door on my mind :(
It's the sound of it--when it's banged upon, it sounds like metal. Stone wouldn't make that sound, and wood would be more of a bang, and not sound so...hollow.
Heh, I said to Patti we should go check the DVDs to see what it sounds like. The thing is, of the three choices, I think it looks like metal the least. Guess the set design and the sound effects people didn't get together on this one...
Yeah, I thought about that (the sound effects and set design peeps) as soon as I posted that comment, lol. It doesn't look like metal (maybe wood?), but it sure sounds like it. Metal would make the most sense to be on an old crypt (I think), or stone over wood. Some of the other crypt doors looked metal, though (I'm thinking of a few shown in s4).
Maybe I don't spend enough time in cemeteries, lol. I was trying to think what a real crypt door might look like, and I don't think I've ever seen one...
In Brooklyn, there are cemeteries everywhere! Many are [or were] quite beautiful and peaceful. In fact, quite like BTVS, there were angels, urns and books and very individual. More like Victorian holdovers. Crypts [similar to the Alpert one on the show] are old, dating from 1890-1920. They all had metal doors. [However, I still think Spike's looked wooden.]
