Bloodlines & Houses
Jenna Sommers
Elena and Jeremy's aunt, made their guardian at short notice after her sister died, and comprehensively lied to by everyone she loves for two seasons "for her own protection."
Klaus turns her into a vampire in 2010 for the sole purpose of using her as the vampire in his sacrifice. She is dead within a day of turning. It is the cruellest thing that happens to any bystander in the franchise.
Details
- She was dating Alaric Saltzman, whose missing wife turned out to be Elena's mother.
- She learns the truth about vampires roughly two episodes before it kills her.
