Here we go folks! The official description for the season 4 premiere of The Vampire Diaries is here, and does it have some juicy details to share. It couldn’t come at a better time as we get nearer and nearer to October 11th. (Beware that spoilers follow!)
The CW released the following official description for the The Vampire Diaries season premiere episode, “Growing Pains”:
ELENA’S WORST NIGHTMARE — Elena (Nina Dobrev) awakens on the morning after the accident to find the thing she dreaded most has come true – she died with vampire blood in her system and now must go through the terrible transition to become a vampire…or face certain death. Stefan (Paul Wesley) promises Elena that he and Bonnie (Kat Graham) will exhaust every possible way out of the situation, but Damon (Ian Somerhalder) is furious with his brother for letting Elena die in the first place. Bonnie pays a terrible price for her attempt to change Elena’s fate, while Damon takes out his frustration and rage on Matt (Zach Roerig). In a rare moment of empathy, Rebekah (guest star Claire Holt) is deeply touched by Stefan and Elena’s devotion to one another. Finally, Pastor Young (guest star Michael Reilly Burke) and the Town Council members begin rounding up the vampires and their supporters, leading to an unexpected tragedy. Steven R. McQueen, Candice Accola, Michael Trevino and Joseph Morgan also star. Chris Grismer directed the episode written by Caroline Dries (#401).
It seems that just about everyone will be involved in the drama unfolding when The Vampire Diaries returns for its fourth season. While Stefan and Bonnie are running around trying to keep Elena from turning, it seems that Damon will be looking for anyone and everyone that is to blame for her death, particularly Matt. Meanwhile a new face, Pastor Young, will be stirring up all kinds of trouble of his own.
We find the bit about Bonnie “paying a terrible price” to be a bit troubling, as she will undoubtedly be delving into some pretty dark terrain in order to try and save Elena. Equally as troubling is the unexpected tragedy that will befall someone as the Town Council begins their work to purge the vampires and their supporters from Mystic Falls.
