For the last decade, the iconic heroes and villains of "The Vampire Diaries" and "The Originals" have captivated audiences worldwide. They left an enduring legacy of love and family in their wake, which continues in "Legacies", a thrilling new drama that tells the story of the next generation of supernatural beings at The Salvatore School for the Young and Gifted.

It's here that Klaus Mikaelson's daughter, 17-year-old Hope Mikaelson; Alaric Saltzman's twins, Lizzie and Josie Saltzman; and other young adults -- including political scion MG and the mysterious Landon Kirby -- come of age in the most unconventional way possible, nurtured to be their best selves...in spite of their worst impulses. Will these young witches, vampires and werewolves become the heroes they want to be -- or the villains they were born to be?

As they fight to protect their secret, their town of Mystic Falls and eventually the world, they will have to rely on ancient folklore and tales to learn how to battle their far-reaching enemies.
