From Entertainment Weekly writer and debut author Samantha Highfill, a definitive and deliciously nostalgic look into the creation and legacy of hit show The Vampire Diaries, as told by its cast, crew, and creators.
In 2009, the CW released a show about grief, love, redemption, and, oh yeah, vampires. A graveyard meet cute, a bit of fog, and one "Hello, brother" later, a cultural phenomenon was born, one that would last for 171 episodes across eight seasons and deliver two spin-off series. I Was Feeling Epic takes us back to Mystic Falls for every first kiss, decade dance, and unforgettable death. With brand new interviews from cast and creatives like Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, Ian Somerhalder, Kat Graham, Candice King, Joseph Morgan, Michael Trevino, Zach Roerig, Michael Malarkey, Julie Plec, Kevin Williamson, and so many more, I Was Feeling Epic will relive the show's best moments, unearth never-before-told stories, and delve into some of the most widely discussed topics surrounding the series and its legacy, all in the words of the people who know it best. Transportive, nostalgic, and perfect for old fans and new, I Was Feeling Epic is the in-depth story behind the vampirically immortal hit: The Vampire Diaries.
