Season 4 of the CW’s The Vampire Diaries is creeping up on us and another new face to Mystic Falls  awaits us this fall. David Alpay is coming into town, filling a role we heard about last month. As you know, some of the TVD gang is graduating  from high school and  attending the local college (the same one Jenna  - Sarah Canning – was at).  Back in July we learned about a new character stemming from this new setting, one Professor Shane, who has ties to Katerina Graham’s Bonnie Bennett and her family. Enter Alpay.

According to TVline Professor Shane will be a recurring a character that will debut in the fourth episode of the season. The word last month was that Vampire Diaries heads might want to rewatch an episode from TVD season 2 titled “Bad Moon Rising” to catch some thread Alpay’s appearance will initially play off of. If Alpay looks familiar, you may have caught him on The Borgias as Calvino or on The Tudors as Mark Smeaton. He joins Grace Phipps, Todd Williams, and Phoebe Tonkin as major new characters coming to Mystic Falls this season.

The Vampire Diaries returns to CW Thursdays on  October 11th, back with more Nina Dobrev, Ian Somerhalder, and Paul Wesley fun.
