'The Originals' season 3 spoilers; old characters to return

"The Originals" second season had a whirlwind finale, resolving the problem of villainous Dahlia, and in the process, leaving Klaus' (Joseph Morgan) relationship with his remaining family in tatters.

The last episode ended on a seemingly calm note with Klaus rocking his child Hope. However, that peace will not last long as most of the characters have some sort of score to settle after the events of last season.

Elijah (Daniel Gillies) may take some time to forgive Klaus for scorching his girlfriend. Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) is left as a sort of "backwards" werewolf, cursed only to be human one night a month.

Davina was tricked by the siblings into resurrecting Esther, instead of her love interest Kol. Rebekah may be the only one to come out mostly on top with a brand-new human body, which she has always wanted.

The third season will introduce some new characters. Actor Jason Dohring will join the cast as a private eye with a penchant for vampire hunting, and there will be two new baddies that will most likely go after Klaus.

Actor Andrew Lees is joining the cast in a recurring role as Lucien, a member of Klaus' sire line. Rebecca Breeds will also play as Aurora, a malicious and seductive lady.

The upcoming season will also see the return of Kol, although according to actor Nathaniel Buzolic, it will most likely be in the form of flashbacks. Claire Holt and Casper Zafer have also confirmed their return to the show through flashbacks. Holt plays the original Rebekah Mikaelson, while Zafer plays Finn Mikaelson.

Meanwhile, Klaus will turn to Camille O'Connell (Leah Pipes), now a licensed therapist, for help and the two will become closer. The show promises some crazy events such as catfights, ancient grudge matches, and even werewolf sex.

Fans will get to see more of the sire line in the upcoming season. The Originals have been around for thousands of years, and if an original dies, their entire sire line gets wiped out, which was seen in the previous season.

There will also be a custody battle between Klaus and Hayley for their child Hope in the new season. Freya will have more parts in the upcoming season mainly because she will be the one watching and mentoring Hope, while her parents fight.

The Originals will return on Oct. 8 on The CW.
