The vamp is back in town! With Damon’s return to home, Elena is doing everything she can to avoid him while he’s using all of his powers to see her again — or at least hear her breathe. Yes, he said that.
Alaric (Matt Davis) has promised Elena (Nina Dobrev) one thing — he won’t give her back her memories of loving Damon (Ian Somerhalder) until she asks. However, things are changing now with Damon back in town, and with vampire hunters on the lose, let’s just say it’s not lookin’ good for the Mystic Falls alum.

Elena goes on her first date after losing Damon! Meanwhile, Bonnie and Damon are still trying to find a way home and they finally figure it out — but only one of them actually make it back successfully!
Our heads are still spinning after this episode of The Vampire Diaries! Tyler is in trouble after he hits a student while driving, Elena (Nina Dorbev) goes on a date with Liam — which ends in a kiss — and only Damon (Ian Somerhalder) makes it back home, leaving Bonnie still trapped in 1994!

While Damon and Bonnie try to figure out how Kai can get them out of his ‘personal hell,’ a shocking secret is revealed that pieces a lot together.
Thought The Vampire Diaries love triangles couldn’t get anymore complicated? Well, they can — they really, really can. Elena (Nina Dobrev) set out to figure out what Stefan (Paul Wesley) has been up to in Georgia, and while yes — he does purpose — he also reveals to her the truth about her feelings for Damon (Ian Somerhalder).

Caroline may not have bought Stefan a wall, but she definitely asked him to stay on ‘The Vampire Diaries’ — and finally revealed her true feelings.
With Stefan (Paul Wesley) back in town to hunt down Enzo (Michael Malarkey), Elena (Nina Dobrev) does everything she can to try and return to “normal” life in outside Mystic Falls. Of course, with vampire hunters on the lose and a very upset Caroline (Candice Accola), that wasn’t about to happen.

The Oct. 9 episode of ‘The Vampire Diaries’ did a number on our emotions. Elena made a drastic decision, and one that is going to have heartbreaking repercussions for everyone.
Oh, The Vampire Diaries. You sure know how to make us cry. The Oct. 9 episode featured the return of Enzo (Michael Malarkey), a new big bad and Elena (Nina Dobrev) passing the point of no return. Delena fandom, we’re all in this together.

OMG, is Elena hooking up Stefan again? ‘Vampire Diaries’ returns Oct. 2, and while she’s struggling to get over the loss of Damon, she may actually be finding a new romance sooner than you think!
Stelena fans unite! Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev) was completely broken when Damon (Ian Somerhalder), but maybe she just needed a rebound — and what better than the other brother? We know that Stefan (Paul Wesley) notices a strange change in her, but does that also change his feelings?! After seeing them holding hands on the poster, we’re now hearing they may be locking lips!

Fans were heartbroken when Damon died on the Season 5 finale of ‘The Vampire Diaries’ on May 15. However, it sounds like there IS a chance that he’ll be back to bite again. HollywoodLife.com has the EXCLUSIVE scoop on Damon’s fate on ‘The Vampire Diaries.’
Fans are still drying their tears after the intensely emotional goodbye between Damon and Elena on the May 15 finale of The Vampire Diaries, and some are even speculating that Ian Somerhalder decided to leave the show because of tension between himself and his co-star and real-life ex-girlfriend Nina Dobrev. Now HollywoodLife.com can clear the air and give you all the EXCLUSIVE details about Damon’s departure from the show.

The ‘Vampire Diaries’ season finale was unforgettable. Season five concluded with a master plan gone awry and two major characters not coming back from the Other Side!
The May 15 season finale of The Vampire Diaries is another epic conclusion to a fantastic season. The episode featured the return of beloved familiar faces, the end of Markos (Raffi Barsoumian) and two major characters saying goodbye, possibly for good! Read on for all the details on the finale!

The Travelers aren’t playing around. After draining the doppelgängers of liters of blood, they have enough to get that spell started — the spell that will result in a literal broken heart.
While Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Elena (Nina Dobrev) tried to find their way back to Mystic Falls, Damon (Ian Somerhalder) oddly decided to trap Markos’ (Raffi Barsoumian) into the Savatore home. But even with the help of a fellow Travelor, Markos proved it wasn’t going to be easy to stop him.

While Damon can’t stand to be in a room with Elena, he still can tell that she and Stefan are keeping a secret — and a game of Never Have I Ever is the best way to get that secret out.
You’d think that a weekend away with your exes who just happen to be brothers would be awkward, but not when it’s to protect the Travelers from kidnapping and killing you for your blood. So, after Elena (Nina Dobrev) found out that Markos (Raffi Barsoumian) was searching for her and Stefan (Paul Wesley), they went into hiding — never thinking that the secret they were keeping out actually change everything — and that Enzo’s (Michael Malarkey) death didn’t mean what they thought.

While Damon couldn’t stop thinking about Elena, Elena couldn’t stop daydreaming about Stefan — and it was mutual. But contrary to what we’ve been told, it’s not because the doppelgängers are meant to be together.
With Markos (Raffi Barsoumian) in town, it was no secret that Mystic Falls would be turned upside down. While the Travelers slowly but surely began taking over the bodies of the innocent people of the town, it became a game of ‘Who can you trust?’ . . . and everyone was fooled.

Doppelgängers and Travels and witches, oh my! What happened to the days where ‘Vampire Diaries’ was all vamps? Those are no longer.
Elena (Nina Dobrev) and Damon (Ian Somerhalder) woke up thinking the toughest part of their day would be getting over that morning-after-hooking-up awkwardness, but that was only the beginning. Not only did Elena have a near-death experience thanks to Liv (Penelope Mitchell), she was about to come head to head with the leader of the Travelers — meet Markos (Raffi Barsoumian).

When Elena’s away, Damon will play . . . and then when she returns, he’ll admit to her all the people he’s killed in her absence.
Poor Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev). All she wants to do is be back to her normal self, but even with Katherine gone, it doesn’t seem possible. Since Katherine had infected her with a virus that caused her to crave vampire blood, hallucinate, and get really sick, she can’t go back to normal life. In fact, she can’t even decipher between what’s real and what’s not.

After centuries of causing unthinkable pain all over the world — from Mystic Falls to the Ukraine and back — Katherine Pierce is dead. Buried. Gone. And while we’ll miss her as she rots away in Hell, her death was a necessary move for the show.
I hate to say it, but The Vampire Diaries has been… shaky… this season. It’s understandable since they’re pretty far along at Season 5, but the same ol’ Damon (Ian Somerhalder)/Elena (Nina Dobrev)/Katherine (also Nina Dobrev)/Stefan (Paul Wesley) love quadrangle drama was beginning to feel repetitive. Therefore, getting rid of a quarter of that quadrangle was an excellent idea.
