We study the spectrum of the gravitational modes in Minkowski spacetime due to a 6-dimensional warped deformed conifold, i.e., a warped throat, in superstring theory. After identifying the zero mode as the usual 4D graviton, we present the KK spectrum as well as other excitation modes. Gluing the throat to the bulk (a realistic scenario), we see that the graviton has a rather uniform probability distribution everywhere while a KK mode is peaked in the throat, as expected. Due to the suppressed measure of the throat in the wave function normalization, we find that a KK mode's probability in the bulk can be comparable to that of the graviton mode. We also present the tunneling probabilities of a KK mode from the inflationary throat to the bulk and to another throat. Due to resonance effect, the latter may not be suppressed as natively expected. Implication of this property to reheating after brane inflation is discussed.
