The vampire brothers Damon and Stefan Salvatore, eternal adolescents,
having been leading 'normal' lives, hiding their bloodthirsty condition,
for centuries, moving on before their non-aging is noticed. They are back
in the Virginia town where they became vampires, as high school students.
Stefan is noble, denying himself blood to avoid killing, and tries to
control his evil brother Damon. Stefan falls in love with schoolgirl Elena,
whose best friend is a witch, like her grandma.
Mystic falls becomes the target town for vampires with the return of Stefan
& Damon Salvatore. Stefan, the controlled brother who's focused on his
humanity, enrolls at high school attempting a normal life whereas his
brother Damon, the dashing, gorgeous, irresistible and dangerous brother
makes Stefan's life a misery while trying to steal his girlfriend, Elena,
along the way. With the confusing emotions, deceiving acts and hidden
talents, comes a deep history from 1864 that Damon is determined to
overcome by rescuing the Salvatore brothers' old love, Katherine, with the
help of Elena's witch friend.
After 145 years, the virtuous vampire Stefan Salvatore (Paul Wesley)
returns to his home town of Mystic Falls, Virginia and falls for the
beautiful Elena Gilbert (Nina Dobrev), a girl with a tragic past and
uncanny resemblance to his lost love Katherine. Alwasy close on Stefan's
heels is his vampire brother Damon (Ian Somerhalder), a ruthless killer who
also loved Katherine and is determined to make Stefan's after-life a living
hell in any way he can. But underneath the surface of the sleepy town is a
world of mystery, magic, and intrigue, where no one is safe and everyone is hiding a secret...
