Don't scream too loudly, Vampire Diaries fans, but we're less than a month away from the second season premiere of this incredible show.
Titled "The Return," the opening episode of season two focuses on Katherine's presence in Mystic Falls. The CW has released a few photos from this installment, none of which provide any true spoilers - but all of which should still get viewers excited for September 9.
Notice that Tyler is also featured in these images. The series won't waste any time exploring this character in-depth, as it takes us inside his family and their secrets...
Among other casting tidbits and spoilers for season two, fans can expect...
... Courtney Ford to play a key role.
... Stefan to come face-to-face with Katherine on the September 9 premiere.
... Damon to face new challenges.
