In 2009, Stefan, Damon and Elena once again appeared on bookshelves in Book 5 (and book 1 of “The Return” trilogy), Nightfall. They both also appear to favour high hair … Both Edward and Stefan are intense, in love and attending high school. In the interim, of course, another eternally adolescent “vegetarian” vampire had arrived on the popular culture scene, in the form of one Edward Cullen.

The former was powerful and liked to snack on humans the latter survived on animal blood and valour.
