Continuity mistake: The sign by Mystic Falls cemetery says it was established in 1792, but later episodes state the town was built in the 1860s.
The Vampire Diaries (2009)
1 continuity mistake in Pilot - chronological order
Starring: Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev, Kat Graham, Candice Accola, Candice King, Paul Wesley
Plot hole: Bonnie is the anchor for the other side and feels when supernatural beings die. How come she didn't know Katherine wasn't dead? Did she never think it was suspicious that she never felt Katherine's body after she died?
Suggested correction: Katherine died but didn't go to the other side. So she didn't need to go through Bonnie. She went to hell to Arcadius. Bonnie is not the anchor to hell, we don't know how going to hell works.
After everyone finally realises that Elena had been possessed by her Doppelgänger Predecessor, It is actually shown that Katherine were more or less dragged away from Bonnie before she could crossover to the Otherside. So we do have some idea as to how one ends up in Hell.
Suggested correction: Katherine was a human technically when she died.
Technically, she was supernatural because she was a doppelganger, so she should've gone through Bonnie.
And even she was a traveller.
Damon Salvatore: I DO believe in killing the messenger. Why? Because it sends a message.
Question: When Elena and Damon were turned into rippers they were confined because they fed on vampires. Why was Lily not a threat, yet she was a ripper and never fed on vampires.
Answer: Because Lily's humanity was not turned off as Elena and Stefan's were...therefore she had some control over her actions and had a conscience whereas the other two did not at the time.
