The Vampire Journals

By Morgan Ormond

"Earth Break" creator Morgan Ormond and "Shoe Bones" writer El Haney invite their friends to do a deep dive into each episode of "The Vampire Diaries," a supernatural teen drama on the CW from 2008 to 2016.

We bring our queer perspectives, emotional processing, and knowledge of vampire lore and literature to try and answer the question: "Is this show actually good?"

Oh my God, You're a Ghost - Season 3, Episodes 21 & 22

Due to losing 40 minutes of recording episode 21, we decided to watch episode 22 and record one double feature.


In this episode, everything leads up to a pivotal moment in Elena's life that connects her past to her present and forever changes her future. Klaus teams up with the Salvatore brothers, but that alliance is short-lived when Elena reveals her life is connected to Alaric's. Meanwhile, Stefan, Damon, and Tyler prepare for death as Klaus gets his comeuppance, and Elena's struggle with making choices gets tied up in her trauma.
