Sneak Peek: The Vampire Diaries “By the Light of the Moon”

Does anyone else feel like they have been missing something HUGE in their lives? Well, this week is the big return of The Vampire Diaries after a holiday hiatus! These are the latest images from the CW for the episode entitled, “By the Light of the Moon.”

Things begin to get hairy for poor Tyler Lockwood, according to the episodes official description.

As the full moon approaches, Caroline (Candice Accola) helps Tyler (Michael Trevino) prepare for the transformation he is powerless to stop. While Stefan ( Paul W esley) and Katherine ( Nina Dobrev ) play mind games on one another, Damon ( Ian Somerhalder ) and Alaric (Matt Davis) are suspicious when a stranger named Jules (guest star Michaela McManus) shows up in Mystic Falls , searching for her missing friend, Mason.

Elena (Dobrev) is frustrated at the lengths Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) and her friends have gone to in order to keep her safe. Bonnie (Katerina Graham) and Luca (guest star Bryton James) work together on a spell, while still keeping secrets from one another. Finally, Elijah (guest star Daniel Gillies) makes an unexpected appearance with an offer that could change everything. Sara Canning and Zach Roering also star.

So even though you have to wait until December 9th at 9pm to watch it, here is a preview clip of this weeks episode entitled, “The Sacrifice.”
