'The Vampire Diaries' Season 6 Release Date, Spoilers and Plot Rumors: Will Caroline Die?
Fans of The Vampire Diaries are already on the edge of their seat even before the premiere of Season 6 on Oct. 2 on CW.
What has been keeping the hit series in the minds of its fans in the interim period was the recently released official poster (shown above) showing Damon (played by Ian Somerhalder) and Bonnie (Kat Graham), holding hands while Elena (Nina Dobrev) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) walk together.
The dark foreboding picture also shows a grim-looking Caroline (Candice Accola) together with Matt (Zach Roerig), Tyler (Michael Trevino), Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen), Alaric (Matt Davis) and Enzo (Michael Malarkey).
Some fans believe that Caroline (seen crawling on the ground in the photo), who is returning to Whitmore College, will die in the upcoming season. Some also suspect that Caroline will sacrifice her life to bring back the elder Salvatore brother and Bonnie from the Other Side.
Season 5 ended with Damon and Elena moving on with their plan to kill the Travelers. The plan involved sacrificing their own lives. However, they had a backup plan to enable them to return to the land of the living.
With Liv (Penelope Mitchell) casting her magic, Elena and a handful of other Mystic Falls loved ones managed to go through Bonnie (Kat Graham).
However, Damon did not make it. He was stuck on the crumbling Other Side – permanently dead – as Liv's magic waned off.
It was devastating blow for the group, but what no one seemed to realize was that when the Other Side disappeared, Bonnie would vanish, too.
In the CW poster, the pictures of Bonnie and Damon on the left side are not smoky or transparent, which could mean that they could still return to the land of the living.
What is shocking is that the pair seems to be holding on to one another.
On the right side of the picture is Elena, Damon's former girlfriend, who doesn't seem to be worried about Bonnie and Damon holding onto each other – because she's clutching Stefan's hand.
The poster thus suggests that Damon and Bonnie will strike up a relationship while Elena and Stefan will rekindle their love
The latest trailer and the official synopsis show Elena feeding on humans apparently to distract her mind as she still could not move on with the death of her love.
The latest poster for Season 6 also suggests a lot of new relationships, "fresh starts and second chances."
Meanwhile, a psychopathic character will appear in the series, creating problems for the vampires, show producer Julie Plec revealed in a recent interview. "There is a villain-esque person in this season that I'm particularly excited about because it does break the mold a little bit of our villains, which seem to be often very redeemable in their own way," Plec told Entertainment Weekly.
"And we get to explore the deep, dark minds of a psychopathic personality, so I'm very excited about that," she added.
