A happy ending is not what the fans of The Vampire Diaries are used to.

The Vampire Diaries made poor Elena Gilbert miserable for eight full years – she lost almost all her loved ones, burned down her house, drowned, and then was resurrected. So it is clear why the writers gave her a happy ending – she deserved it more than anyone else.

However, such a finale seemed too obvious to many fans, so we offer several alternative endings that will probably make you cry your eyes out (sorry).

1. Elena and Damon’s history as humans revealed

The show spends a lot of time on Damon and Elena’s relationship, but when the finale just dumps a bunch of facts on the fans that the couple got married and had kids, it’s a little disappointing. It is only natural that everyone wants to know more details that were missed in the finale.

But unfortunately, the time was quite limited. By the way, the scene where Damon asks Elena to marry him was shot, but then cut. And this is exactly what we would like to see with our own eyes.

2. Elena gets linked to Damon

In the season six finale, Elena falls into a coma and can only come back to life if Bonnie dies. Such a horrible spell is the work of notorious Kai Parker.

But what if Kai had tied Elena to Damon instead of Bonnie? Yes, it would have been more violent, but you can never have too much drama, especially on The Vampire Diaries. Then Elena would only be able to wake up when Damon dies, and they could never be together. Stelena fans, we know you would absolutely love such a finale.

3. Damon erases Elena’s memory and leaves

Another version of the finale that would make Stelena fans open a bottle of champagne. Everyone remembers how much suffering mystical creatures, especially vampires, have brought into Elena’s life.

A noble gesture on Damon’s part would be to erase Elena’s memory of all the supernatural events in her life so that she can finally live as a normal person, like she always wanted to.

4. Stefan and Damon die together

Can you imagine how powerful and heartbreaking such a finale would be? The relationship between the Salvatore brothers has come a long way from hatred to a strong and sincere bond that has forced them to risk their lives time and time again.

So it would make perfect sense to end the arcs of these two characters by sacrificing themselves for each other, further demonstrating that family ties come first. By the way, Paul Wesley himself thinks it would be the perfect ending.
