CW Joins the Vampire Craze with New Show

Posted: February 6th, 2009 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
CW Joins the Vampire Craze with New ShowSubmit Comment
The CW is looking to join in on the vampire craze, picking up a pilot based on the "Vampire Diaries" series of books.

Originally published in 1993, which was years before Stephanie Meyer launched her "Twilight" book franchise, "Vampire Diaries" revolves around a young woman whose torn between two vampire brothers. The brothers - one good, one evil - are battling for her soul, and the souls of her pals, family and the small town where they live.

The CW has reunited with "Scream," "I Know What You Did Last Summer" and "Dawson's Creek" writer Kevin Williamson, who last produced "Hidden Palms" for the network, to executive produce and write. Julie Plec ("Kyle XY") is also on board to write.

A 4-book novel series, "Vampire Diaries" was originally penned by LJ Smith. After the success of the "Twilight" series, Morgenstein suggested to HarperCollins, the publisher of the "Diaries" books, that they should re-release the books with new covers.

Since then, "Diaries" has hit the New York Times Bestseller's list, and HarperCollins has ordered three more books. The first new installment, "The Vampire Diaries: The Return: Nightfall," comes out next Tuesday.
