The Vampire Diaries deals with vampires, of course. Also, witches.
Next season, we'll learn more about werewolves.
Now, we can also confirm the presence of one more species on the show: Blue Devils.
The CW hit is casting the possibly recurring role of Vanessa. Look for this character to be a beautiful, intelligent graduate student at Duke University. She'll assist Damon and Alaric with their werewolf research.
More of Damon and Alaric teaming up on season two? We can't wait!
