The universe of The Vampire Diaries is a fascinating place created by writer L.J. Smith and revived on the small screen by The CW. At its core are three wonderfully complex and intertwining stories centered around the mystical city of Mystic Falls, a land steeped in a rich history of witches, vampires, werewolves and two-faced humans.
The universe is best known for its multifaceted characters, the Salvator brothers Stefan and Damon, both vampires who are at odds over their love for the same woman, Elena Gilbert, who also dominates the plot as a dual character. It also features the original family with the immortal vampire/werewolf hybrid Niklaus Mikaelson entering the picture and heightening the drama.
This universe is enchanting, full of romance, mystery and supernatural elements. Seamlessly blending the mundane and the extraordinary, it presents a world where the impossible becomes possible, blending the real with the surreal, creating moments of hilarious suspense, heartbreaking romance and unexpected humor.
