Who could be the major character that will be killed off? Since it was confirmed that Season 8 will be the last for the series, it could just be any of the major characters. As human beings, Alaric and Matt are always the ones in danger. Enzo and Damon can't be ruled out either since they will be controlled by an evil entity at the start of "The Vampire Diaries" Season 8.
Happy ending for everyone
It will not be all doom for the coming season, however. EP Juli Plec hinted that some of the characters will have their happy ending. This doesn't mean, however, that the fans will get exactly what they want.
Plec has this to say on the matter, "The goal is not to try to make the fans happy because of some small thing they've latched onto that they consider important to them, but to make the experience resolve itself satisfyingly … really delivering on a good, happy ending, as much as that's even possible for each character."
A cool female villain
This will be a tall order indeed since a new character will be introduced to make life miserable for the Salvatores and their friends. Graham hinted that the new villain will be a cool female. She further revealed that the final season will bring an old classic story back to life.
Plec, on the other hand, promised at the show's Comic-Con panel that they will be putting a new twist on the villains. She explained that it's something to do with the ancient past.
A love life for Alaric
One of the things to look forward to in this final season is how Alaric would finally end up in a relationship. He did not have a happy love life in the past two seasons of the series. Alaric was previously involved with Jo, but it sadly ended when she passed away.
He then had a relationship with Caroline but she decided to get back with Stefan after their twins were born. Plec said that they are now thinking of how his love story will be written in the final season of the series.
Plec also answered what fans have been asking about for the final season. She confirmed that there will be no crossover with "The Originals" for one last time since the two shows have different timelines.
