Guns and stakes and flesh-tearing chains?! According to intense new photos from The Vampire Diaries Season 3, Episode 18, the residents of Mystic Falls will have an exorbitant amount of supernatural mayhem on their hands. Not only is Elena Gilbert depicted holding a huge-ass rifle (or some sort of machine gun device) in one of the shots but Stefan Salvatore’s also gripping onto a carefully sharpened stake and looking distressed about something. The worst part though is that at some point during “The Murder of One” Damon is going to find himself in a dangerous predicament — there are several images tied up and bleeding. And unless he and Rebekah are testing out a new kinky vampire S&M game, we’re going to go ahead and assume the poor guy’s going to be brutally tortured by pretty little Barbie Klaus.
Brace yourselves, gentle viewers, because along with shocking returns and vicious Original family threats, they’ll be a heartbreaking amount of emotional turmoil to deal with. Bloody freaking hell! Delve right into the new summary and photos for Vampire Diaries episode 318 below!
Here’s the official synopsis for Vampire Diaries Season 3, Episode 18:
SAVIOR OF THE CURSED AND THE DAMNED — Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Stefan (Paul Wesley) focus a new project that will bring them closer to destroying Klaus (Joseph Morgan), and they quickly bring Elena (Nina Dobrev), Caroline (Candice Accola) and Matt (Zach Roerig) in on the plan. After Klaus threatens someone close to Bonnie (Kat Graham), she has no choice but to work on the spell he needs. Meanwhile, Klaus and Rebekah (guest star Claire Holt) find the perfect motivator to convince Finn (guest star Caspar Zafer) to cooperate with them, but Rebekah is more interested in her own brutal plan to take revenge on Damon. Stefan’s emotional turmoil leads him to a dangerous confrontation with Klaus and, later, to a heartbreaking moment with Elena. J. Miller Tobin directed the episode written by Caroline Dries (#318).

According to the synopsis, Finn is returning to Mystic Falls after having vanished into his mom Esther’s mystical fire on episode 3.15. Do you think that, along with her loyal son, Esther will be making a surprise comeback as well? Post your predictions in the comments and discuss more Vampire Diaries season 3 spoilers in greater length in the fan lounge!
Omg! Rebekah torturing Damon?! Why??? That bitch! That’s a no-no!!! Somebody,anybody- please stake that ho!
I definitely think Mommy Dearest and her sons are up to something. I wonder what is the incentive that makes Finn cooperate? I cannot wait to see WTF is going to happen next!
Wonder what is the heartbreaking moment between Stefan and Elena?! Who does Klaus threaten that is important to Bonnie? Abby is already a vamp; Could it be Jeremy??? OMFG- soo many questions, soo many twisted possibilities! It is TVD after all!!!
Rebekah is so so stupid! For torturing Damon she deserves a stake in her hart, one that will KILL her FOREVER!
About Finn and Esther I agree with Susy.I think that maybe Finn pretends that cooperates with Klaus.Maybe he and her mother are involved in that plan that Damon and Stefan are up to.
About Bonnie I don’t think that Klaus is threatening Jeremy because he made a pact with Elena and usually he keeps his word.I think he might threaten Jamie.
And about Stefan and Elena moment I think that it will be practically the end of their relationship.It’s obvious that Elena is more interested of Damon than Stefan and Stefan sees that too.Julie Plec said that things between Damon and Elena will be hotter so… And she tweeted that the end of the season will be a little hartbreaking maybe is because Stefan suffers because Elena chooses her.By the way I always had the impresion that Julie Plec is a Stelena fan.
I’ve made a mistake in my previous comment it was:Stefan suffers because Elena chooses Damon
@Susy, Arwen! I’ve had the same impresion, that Julie Plec is a Stelena fan who is just throwing us a bone from time to time to keep us hooked on the show. That’s why I get mad every time I think about it… It’s more than midnight in Europe. Good night!
you all good about the affection scene. i havent watch for a couple of weeks. this creepy net has no available episode 16. I hope stephen will deserve a payback for the sacrifice. but is still love damon for smooching elena. peace lol!
