Vampire Diaries Spoilers: A New Bloodsucker Emerges from the Tomb

The opening of The Tomb on The Vampire Diaries was a game changer in many ways, particularly in guest star opportunities. With The Tomb as a plot device, the producers will have a vampire nebula to summon hot guest stars from. For instance, how about Stephen Martines? The soap opera vet and The Closer star will be joining The Vampire Diaries in March. Deets follow...

•Martines will play Frederick, a vampire who has been The Tomb for some time, and more recently has been confined with Katherine. Needless to say, he's very hungry and a bit worked up - so expect him to literally go wild when he gets out. (Hollywood Reporter)
•Hoping for a second helping of hot teen vamps next season? You got it! The CW has given The Vampire Diaries an early renewal. (TV Guide)
•Is Isobel a vampire? Perhaps...TV Guide's Mickey O'Connor says we'll "learn more about her interactions with bloodsuckers. It's no accident that Alaric is teaching in Mystic Falls, but is his assumption that Isobel is dead correct?" He also suggests we ponder if "Bonnie's college-aged cousin has any supernatural secrets of her own?" (TV Guide)
