One does have to wonder about all the strange items these people need. A frequent one is a coffin! There was a separate discussion about Tom's. But, what I wonder, is that he was originally buried in a nice coffin, which Barnabas and Willie dug up and found empty. Where did he instantly find this other one to use?
But, what really gets me, any time it comes up, but particularly during a modern-day time period like this part, is the silver bullets. Barnabas casually mentions that he went into town and took a silver candlestick and had it made into silver bullets. Can't you just imagine the scene when he's requesting that?!!!
