The Vampire Diaries was loved by fans for its unpredictable and action-packed plot. However, the writers sometimes took things to the extreme with their wild plot twists. Firstly, Elena turned out to be a doppelganger of Katherine, which was a shocking revelation for viewers. But it didn't stop there, as there were also other doppelgangers like Tatia and Amara. Stefan was also revealed to be a doppelganger, with previous incarnations named Tom and Silas. Despite the far-fetched nature of this twist, the fact that Stefan and Elena fell in love throughout their different lives added a touch of romance.
