"The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 is getting fresh infusion from egotistic immortal Sybil, who may be persuaded to play beneficent "godmother" to Damon Salvatore (Ian Somerhalder) and Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev) in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 premiere. Damon Salvatore, Enzo St John (Michael Malarkey) and Bonnie Bennett (Kat Graham) will still be in the throes of the Nameless Evil in the vault.
As a result, Damon Salvatore and Enzo St John have been stringing bloodless corpses across the landscape since "The Vampire Diaries" Season 7 finale. Bonnie Bennett has not been in better shape compared to Damon Salvatore and Enzo St John, having lost her powers in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 7 cliffhanger.
Vulture reports that "TVD" executive producer Julie Plec gave a significant clue on how "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 will play out for Damon Salvatore and the gang. Finale for "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 will not be Bonnie Bennett giving her life up to return Nina Dobrev as Elena Gilbert to reunite with Damon Salvatore and to save the victims of the Nameless Evil.
"If it's next year at the end of season eight, great; if it's the end of season nine, great," Julie Plec said of "TVD" series end. "Whatever gets us to that moment will change a lot over the next year or two, but that actual last sequence is pretty written in my head already."
Kat Graham is exiting Bonnie Bennett with "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8. This means the finale of "The Vampire Diaries" series will not be of the favorite fan plot involving Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder taking Elena Gilbert and Damon Salvatore on a sunset ride.
The advent of the very powerful Sybil will definitely throw the delicate balance off in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8. A happy thought would be Sybil playing godmother to the beleaguered leads in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 including Damon Salvatore and Enzo St John.
Although Sybil is described on TVLine as a bit of a psychotic egotist, the immortal could also be swayed to the side of good in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8. As long as Sybil looked good (especially to her own self), the temperamental immortal could be evil or good embodied in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8.
Sybil will recur with fellow newcomer Seline (Kristen Gutoskie), whose motives in "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 are just as mysterious. "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8 release date is set on The CW for October 21.
