‘Vampire Diaries’ Spoiler: Katherine Returning In Season 4 — FINALLY – Hollywood Life

‘Vampire Diaries’ Scoop: Katherine Returning In Season 4?

A fan-favorite character is on her (or his) way to Mystic Falls! Could it be our old friend Katherine? It's been too long since we've seen Katherine (Nina Dobrev) on The Vampire Diaries — more specifically, far too long — but a new spoiler gives suffering fans a glimmer of hope. HollywoodLife.com's sister site TVLine recently teased that "an imminemt, shocking and much-anticipated return" is about to take place, and I can't help but keep my fingers/toes/fangs crossed that they're referencing Elena's other fanged persona.

We haven’t seen Katherine since she appeared to Elena in a vision on the Nov. 15 episode, shortly before Elena and Stefan (Paul Wesley) called it quits. (See? Crazy things happen whenever Kat’s around!)

I think I speak for everyone when I say we’re ready to see her again soon in the flesh.

(UPDATE: I guess we got our answer!)

Who Else Could Be Returning To ‘The Vampire Diaries’?

As much as I’d love to see Katherine back in Mystic Falls, I have to acknowledge that she’s not the only fan-favorite character with a possibility of resurfacing.

We know Elijah (Daniel Gillies) will be back for the April 25 episode — which will also serve as the back-door pilot for The Vampire Diaries‘ spin-off, The Originals — but there’s a chance he’ll also appear before then.

“I am returning soon,” Daniel recently told HollywoodLife.com at the Baja International Film Festival. “[Executive producer] Julie Plec is saying episode 15 and 16, but I am going back to film very soon! I am very lucky to be on two shows [The Vampire Diaries and NBC’s Saving Hope] that are on the air.”

(For the record, The Originals spin-off will be episode 20, so it sounds like we’ll be getting more Eli before then!)

Which major character do YOU think is coming back to town? Drop me a comment with your predictions and wish list!
