BURBANK, CA (February 22, 2017) – The Vampire Diaries sinks its teeth into its final season with more high-stakes romance, adventure and drama than ever before as Warner Bros. Home Entertainment releases The Vampire Diaries: The Eighth and Final Season on Blu-ray™ and DVD, on June 13, 2017. Fans can devour all 16 one-hour episodes from season eight and feast on over one hour of gripping extras — including a brand-new featurette, the 2016 Comic-Con Panel, a retrospective special entitled, The Vampire Diaries: Forever Yours, and deleted scenes. The Vampire Diaries: The Eighth and Final Season will be priced to own on DVD at $39.99 SRP and on Blu-ray including Digital HD at $44.98 SRP. The eighth season of The Vampire Diaries is also currently available to own on Digital HD.
In season eight, we find Damon (Ian Somerhalder) and Enzo (Michael Malarkey) continuing on their killing spree, both following the commands of a sinister and unnatural force. While Bonnie (Kat Graham), Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Caroline (Candice King) are grieving their loss, they team up to investigate who or what may be the cause of their disappearance at the end of season seven. Alaric (Matt Davis) joins the search and continues to look for clues on how they escaped the Armory vault, and Matt’s (Zach Roerig) family history will reveal a deeper connection to Mystic Falls and how he may be able to save the town from destruction.
The Vampire Diaries: The Complete Series will also be available on June 13thon DVD and Blu-ray. The sets will retail for $189.99 SRP for the DVD set and $234.99 SRP for the Blu-ray set. Both sets represent a substantial savings over purchasing all eight seasons individually.
“It’s been an incredible eight season run for The Vampire Diaries, one of the most talked about shows on television,” said Rosemary Markson, WBHE Senior Vice President, Television Marketing. “The fan base for the franchise is both passionate and loyal, and they’re going to love this final installment to complete their Vampire Diaries collection."
