BURBANK, CA (May 25, 2016) – Put the drama on fast-forward with another season of epic thrills and romance as Warner Bros. Home Entertainment releases The Vampire Diaries: The Complete Seventh Season on Blu-ray™ and DVD on August 16, 2016. Fans can devour all 22 one-hour episodes from season seven and feast on an hour of gripping extras — including a brand-new featurette, the 2015 Comic-Con panel, deleted scenes, and a gag reel. The Vampire Diaries: The Complete Seventh Season will be priced to own on DVD at $49.99 SRP and on Blu-ray including Digital HD at $54.97 SRP.
In season seven, after saying an emotional goodbye to Elena Gilbert, some characters will recover while others falter. As Damon and Stefan’s mother, Lily (guest star Annie Wersching – 24, Bosch), tries to drive a wedge between the Salvatore brothers, hope remains that Stefan and Caroline’s love story is tough enough to survive. Damon will do whatever it takes to take down his mother and her band of Heretics, and when Bonnie and Enzo both try to decide where their loyalties lie, a surprising relationship will evolve. Plus, with Mystic Falls in disarray and the arrival of the Heretics — who are set on retaliation and mayhem — the suspense will be stronger than ever. Guest stars this season also include Todd Lasance (Spartacus: War of the Damned), Elizabeth Blackmore (Evil Dead), Scarlett Byrne (Harry Potter films), Teressa Liane (Into the Badlands), Leslie-Ann Huff (The Originals) and others.
