The Ghost Riders are coming to Beacon Hills and they have their sights set on the show's resident goofball. But will his capture be an unfortunate accident or will it be part of a grand plan to take down the enemies and drive them out of town for good?

Earlier this month, MTV released the official trailer for season 6 of its hit supernatural series "Teen Wolf." Stiles Stilinski (Dylan O'Brien) is seen running out of the school building as though luring a group of Ghost Riders towards his jeep where Lydia Martin (Holland Roden) is waiting for him.

When they hop inside the jeep and the hunting party surrounds them, Stiles says, "There's no time," before making Lydia promise to find a way to remember him. Then he gets pulled out of his jeep and wiped out of everybody's memories.

But Lydia does not forget him, nor does his best friend Scott McCall (Tyler Posey), at least not completely.

On the other hand, Stiles is shown with the other captives of the Wild Hunt in some alternate universe, holding on to a thinning sliver of hope that Lydia, or Scott, or any other person in Beacon Hills will eventually remember him and perhaps bring them all back to existence somehow.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly back in July, executive producer Jeff Davis teased that Stiles may well become the most important character in the upcoming sixth and final season of "Teen Wolf." Will his relationships with Scott, Lydia, and his ex-flame Malia Tate (Shelley Hennig) ultimately serve as the key to breaking the Ghost Riders' curse? What will it take to defeat the final season's big bad and Beacon Hills' most threatening adversary yet?

During the "Teen Wolf" panel In this year's New York Comi-Con, Davis hinted on possible character deaths, but did not elaborate on the who, the why, and the how.

Less than a month from the big premiere and season 6 is already promising to be an exciting final run. Who will die and who will survive? Who will get together and who will inevitably break apart? Will the Beacon Hills kids survive long enough to make it to college?

Things will undoubtedly be complicated before they finally start making sense when "Teen Wolf" returns for its final season on Tuesday, Nov. 15, at 9 p.m. EDT on MTV.
