Below is the CW Press Release:

“THE VAMPIRE DIARIES” WEEK-LONG MARATHON

The Vampire Diaries is the story of two vampire brothers obsessed with the same beautiful girl, and battling to control the fate of an entire town. During season one, Stefan ( Paul Wesley, “Fallen”) and Damon Salvatore ( Ian Somerhalder , “Lost”), returned to their hometown of Mystic Falls, Virginia, for very different reasons ? Stefan was determined to get to know Elena Gilbert ( Nina Dobrev , the upcoming film, “The Killing Game”), who bears a striking resemblance to Katherine Pierce, the beautiful but ruthless vampire the brothers knew and loved in 1864, while Damon was intent on releasing Katherine from the tomb where he believed she was tra p p ed by a witch’s s p ell all those years ago. In season two, the appearance of the villainous Katherine in Mystic Falls has thrown a wrench into the love triangle between Stefan, Elena and Damon, and the other residents of Mystic Falls must choose sides as they fall victim to a new breed of danger.
