The Vampire Diaries (2009-2017) enthralled viewers for eight seasons. Hybrids, vampires, doppelgangers, witches, Originals, Travelers, Heretics, and werewolves all flock to the small town of Mystic Falls whose inhabitants have a long history of trying to co-exist with things that go bump in the night.

By the season 8 finale, characters have come and gone, and those who remain have been transformed by the magical world they inhabit. Over the years, The Vampire Diaries creates dense folklore that keeps even the most diehard fan’s head spinning, especially when it comes to events that transpire early in the series history. Here are 10 things that happened on The Vampire Diaries season 1 you completely forgot about.

During season 1, Caroline is a stereotypical mean girl. She treats her besties more like frenemies. She’s jealous, particularly of Elena, catty and eager to put others down. The person she Regina George’s worst of all is her mother, throwing it in Sheriff Forbe’s face that her father has found love … with another man.

This daddy’s girl slowly transitions into a less grating more likable person after she’s dead. The former Miss Mystic Falls can overcome her insecurities to become a devoted friend, doting daughter, and a loving mom.

Zach, Stefan, and Damon’s distant nephew isn’t thrilled when the brothers return to Mystic Falls. After Damon breaks Zach’s neck on season 1’s “You’re Undead to Me,” Carol Lockwood accepts Damon’s explanation that Zach’s sudden absence is due to a trip. The Salvatore descendent only reappears in flashbacks during season 6.

As a Town Council member and the leading supplier of vervain to Mystic Fall’s most prominent citizens, his disappearance doesn’t create the slightest bit of suspicion thanks in large part to Damon’s eagerness to take Zach’s place as the ultimate insider: an imposter pretending to hate vampires.

Zach reveals his stash of vervain to Stefan during season 1. He cultivates a small garden of the plants in the Salvatore Boarding House’s cavernous basement. Zach supplies plants that prevent compulsion to the who’s who of Mystic Falls.

The amount seems disproportionate to the increasing demand as the series continues. At one point, there’s so much of this herb available, it finds it’s way into the town water supply, but where it comes from remains a mystery.

7 Stefan Craves Elena’s Blood

There’s a very Twilight vibe going on early in Elena and Stefan’s relationship. Stefan struggles to hide his true visage when he sees she’s bleeding. Stefan’s “Ripper” tendencies by a diet of furry woodland creatures which isn’t as satisfying as human blood.

It’s a stark reminder that no matter how devoted Stefan is to suppressing that killer instinct, it’s very much inside him. Even the intensity of carnal hunger causes Stefan’s true face to emerge.

Damon loves to make an entrance. At the start of the season, he’s able to conjure fog which comes in handy when he’s trying to disorient his victims, camouflage himself or just create a Dracula-esque vibe.

There’s also a link between Damon and crows. He uses them as flying minions, even dispatching one to fetch Caroline as he’s held captive in the Salvatore Boarding House dungeon. The series abandons Damon’s additional mystical mojo, leaving him with no special skills to put on his spooky resume.

Of course, fans become elbow deep in doppelgangers by season 5 thanks to Katherine, Silas, Amara, Elena, Stefan, and the Travelers.

But before the word becomes lexicon synonymous with the show, Anna hints at what’s to come on season 1’s “Fool Me Once” when she comes face-to-face with Elena. “You really are Katherine’s doppelganger.”
