Vampire Diaries Recap: Drag Me to Hell 

brought neither glad tidings nor great joy to the people of Mystic Falls. Just a lot of festive stabbing.

Vampire Diaries EP Talks Damon’s Post-Lily Spiral, a Bonnie/Nora Pairing and More

Let’s start with the big cliffhanger, shall we? Following a series of nasty encounters with Julian and Nora — and that sword, which I admit to knowing nothing about until it was plainly explained to us this week — Stefan and Damon are now trapped in their own personal hells. And since this whole season has basically been one big Elena-less hell for Damon anyway, he’s pretty much being bumped right down to the tenth circle, where you’re always out of toilet paper and Time Warner is the only cable provider in town.

The only upside to Damon’s little journey is that, as Julian pointed out, we

get to see Lily — albeit a twisted, haunt-y hell version of Lily — one last time. Unless he’s cool leaving things as they were said (“You were a terrible mother when you were alive, and you were a terrible mother when you were dead”). I’m thinking Damon, ever the emotional garbage disposal, might want to at least 

SCARE-O-LINE | Who’d have thought that a pregnant vampire would turn out to be a total nightmare? … Oh, everyone? Well, that theory was proven 10 times over this week, as Caroline’s hormones caused everything from weird cravings — she’s got a killer recipe for blood and marshmallow fluff — to full-on fits of rage. Not even Alaric, her future

, was safe from her wrath. But at least we got a nice scene between Caroline and her mom(‘s grave) to cleanse our Forbes palate. On a related note, if you didn’t well up when she said, “I just realized this is going to be my first Christmas without you,” you’re even more of an emotional ostrich than Damon. (But don’t worry, I know a good therapist.)

#BONORA? | Before Nora decided to go all stab-y on Stefan, the newly single heretic was busy working her magic on a reluctant Bonnie Bennett. Though she’s only been living the single life for about 24 hours, it suits her, and she’s finally ready to spread her glorious heretic wings. Sadly, the ladies’ newfound friendship — spurred by Bonnie’s spiked hot chocolate, mostly — was cut short the second Nora suspected that her “beautiful” new pal was merely distracting her while the others kidnapped Mary Louise. Also, can someone else please reassure me that I’m not imagining the chemistry between Bonnie and Nora? Even if their hypothetical romance would merely be a pit stop on Bonnie’s road to Enzo Town, I fully support something happening between them. Everybody experiments in college, right?

VALERIE, CHERISHED | What is it with Stefan and romancing British blondes in Chicago? This week’s flash-forward took us back to the Windy City — the site of Stefan’s once-hot love affair with Rebekah Mikaelson — only this time, he was in the company of a certain heretic. As a lover of love, I was encouraged when Stefan referred to Caroline as someone he still cares about, as it (briefly) renewed my hope that the couple might still have a shot… but my mood did an about-face when he followed up that sentiment by leaning in for some Valerie sugar. Maybe they’ve

Wow, I think I finally have to give up on this show. It’s jumped the shark too much!

I normally don’t complain about this show but am I the only one sick of Julian …. They took down klaus or at least put up a better fight and he is an orginal can we just move onto someone else Julian needs to go

First thing I wanna say is that what the hell was with Nora turning on Bonnie in a matter of 3 seconds ( by the way thought they were about to make out with the bedroom eyes they were give each other ) she call her beautiful then sucks her dry like a slurpie! I guess it’s kinky in a sort of way but Bonnie first easily let things go so I’m excited to see her play a little dirty.

Caroline is just driving me crazy but I’m used to it, I’ve never liked her character i swear I tune out the scenes that are just about her😂 Poor Alrick has to put up with her controlling crazy ass hopefully she chills out or just snaps already, but I had a little theory what if the twin girls came out as heretics since there witch already but living off the support of a vampire but that’s just a theory.

I WAS SO MAD AT STEPHEN!! Mainly because I love Damon more and stephen couldn’t let the shat go and got them both sent to their own personal hells! Bravo stephen bravo😒

Bummed out we didn’t see anything about what happen to Enzo and who wanted him in the first place I guess that will remain a mystery but I can’t think of anyone who dislikes him enough to do that cause none of the main characters seem behind it guess I’ll just have to wait for answers on that one…

Okay I’m done last thing also mad at caroline for being no help should’ve grab that sword out the second it went in Stephens heart instead of looking like a deer in headlights!
