    The Vampire Diaries universe does follow the authority of the state and they play around with it in fun ways. Like they’ll transfer the deed to a property to someone else to reset who’s allowed to enter the house. I have a hazy memory that one time someone had a house foreclosed on so they’d be able to enter. I’m not sure about warrants though.

        I think so too. Also notably to your first comment, in the vampire diaries universe the first generation of vampires were in like the 10th century, so some concept of a state, property rights, and the ability of the state to take away property rights did exist.

      Every time I hear someone talk about Vampire Diaries lore I get closer to watching it despite the CW ness, I love a show that plays with the details of its lore like that.

        I highly recommend The Originals, it’s one of the spinoff shows and follows the 3 first generation vampires in New Orleans and is a bit more serious and adult than TVD or the other spinoff. It’s the only one I’ve actually watched all the way through.
