The Vampire Diaries Pilot Nearly Included 1 Major Damon Trait (But Fans Missed Out)

As a big fan of The Vampire Diaries, I always loved a little detail in the pilot episode that most people probably miss. If you’ve read L.J. Smith’s books, you’ll know Damon can turn into a crow! In the first episode, he actually forces a real crow to be his spy – he doesn’t shapeshift at all. It’s a cool nod to the books. What’s weird is, after that first episode, Damon using crows and fog to do his spying pretty much stops. Apparently, the showrunners thought it was too supernatural! But the crow does pop up again in a couple of episodes, like “You’re Undead to Me” and the season finale, which is a nice little callback.
