Tewksbury, Massachusetts is about 15 miles south of Salem, New Hampshire and 25 miles west of Salem, Massachusetts. It’s also 25 miles north of Watertown, Massachusetts, where Eliza Dushku was born and raised, and 25 miles northwest of South Boston, where famed vampire slayer Faith Lehane (Dushku’s character on Buffy the Vampire Slayer) was born and raised.
Given that proximity, it’s the logical place for a Hellmouth to open.

Authorities have officially blamed the problem on a “water main break.” But anyone who’s seen the third season of Buffy knows this is just a convenient excuse orchestrated by the ascendant demons who work at town hall. While there have not been any reported vampire sightings as of this time, Tewksbury is right next to Wilmington, where Massachusetts’ sneakily-privatized and FOIA-immune NEMLEC SWAT Units are headquartered, which is kind of the same thing.
