The Vampire Diaries season 4 is approaching, and a new spoiler regarding Elena’s transformation has emerged!

According to TV Guide, Elena might be feeding on one of our main human characters! Matt is feeling a lot of guilt about Elena turning into a vampire, as she gave up her human life so Stefan could save him, and apparently he’s ready to do anything for her – “especially when she needs to feed.”

Matt has always been a bit of a sidelined character, but through his friendship with Tyler and his relationship with Caroline, he has been more involved with the central storyline. Although he will always carry a torch for Elena, last season made it pretty apparent that they probably won’t become romantically involved. But now that Matt is the only human left with no supernatural abilities, we are hoping he will become a bit more integral to the story, being the Xander Harris of the group.

The Vampire Diaries returns next month, on October 11. It will air at 8/7c on The CW, before the new series Beauty and the Beast.

Do you think that Elena will really feed off Matt? And will this be to complete her transition, or after she has become a vampire?
