'Vampire Diaries' Recap: [Spoiler] Dies & Elena Makes A Surprising Choice

…And by ‘makes a choice,’ I mean ‘chooses not to make a choice.’ But that’s the closest Elena has ever come to being decisive, so I’ll take it!
The second-to-last episode of every Vampire Diaries season has always been finale-worthy, but the May 3 episode was so much more than that. Not only did Matt Davis hit it out of the park with his gripping portrayal of “evil Alaric,” but fans also got the shock of the season when death paid a visit to Mystic Falls — and not to the person everyone was expecting.

'Vampire Diaries' Recap: Stefan & Elena Reunite Over A Tragedy

Another fanged fiend is on the loose in Mystic Falls — and this one isn’t looking to give Elena a hug!
So, how are your eyes doing? Red? Puffy? I thought so. The April 26 episode of The Vampire Diaries more than made up for this season’s uneven quality by delivering an incredible hour that took everything to the next level. Not only did Elena’s (Nina Dobrev) love triangle become pointier than ever, but we’ve got ourselves a new Big Bad in Mystic Falls — and I’m kind of terrified to see how it all plays out.

'Vampire Diaries' Recap: Elena Admits She's Torn Between Stefan & Damon

Plus, Klaus’ shocking connection to Tyler is revealed! (I’ve never been so worried.)
The Vampire Diaries’ March 29 episode, “The Murder Of One,” certainly lived up to its hype as one person was, in fact, murdered. And even though it ended up being the one person fans probably cared least about on the entire show, it triggered a reveal about the Originals that changed everything. Are you sitting down? OK, let’s do this…

'The Vampire Diaries' Recap: Stefan Relapses & Elena Admits She 'Can't Shake' Damon

Plus, the Mystic Falls serial killer is revealed — and it’s so not who you thought it was!
After what felt like the longest month of my life, The Vampire Diaries returned with a new episode March 15 — and it was so full of mystery solving that I half-expected the Scooby Gang to roll into town. It was also full of flashbacks to 1912, which helped Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) solve the most crucial mystery of all: the identity of the Mystic Falls serial killer!

'The Vampire Diaries' Recap: Elena Slaps Stefan And (Finally) Kisses Damon

Elena made her feelings about both Salvatore brothers pretty clear on the midseason premiere of ‘The Vampire Diaries.’ But will they last?
Let me begin by saying this, my friends: No, your eyes were not deceiving you during that last scene on the Jan. 5 episode of The Vampire Diaries. Damon (Ian Somerhalder) really did go in for the kiss, and yes, Elena (Nina Dobrev) really did kiss him right back. And it was super hot. The kiss was preceded by one of Damon’s legendary speeches, this time about how he feels so guilty for wanting his brother’s girlfriend. Thankfully he got over that pretty quickly, and decided that if he was going to feel guilty, he might as well have something to feel guilty about. Cue the kiss.
