Revenge. It's more than just a fun drama on ABC. It will also serve as the basis for the Stefan vs. Klaus feud, which is teased in the following promo for The Vampire Diaries' return.

Yes, we need to wait until January 5 to see if Forwood reconciles... and to find out whether or not Elena and Damon will do more than comfort each other over the loss of Stefan... and to learn more about Katherine's Original-corpse-stealing motivations.

But at least we have the following promo to whet our appetite, and at least there's always our Vampire Diaries forum, where fans can predict, debate and celebrate with each other 24/7. Enjoy this preview for what's ahead and then meet us over there.
