'The Vampire Diaries' Star Daniel Gillies Talks Elijah's Attraction To Elena And An Originals Spin-Off

During last week's "Vampire Diaries," Mystic Fall's mother of the year Esther devised a clever scheme to kill her devilish son Klaus: She bound all of the Original siblings together with a spell, so that if one of them were to die, they would all die. But if there's one Original sibling that's proven that death is never permanent, it's Elijah.

As actor Daniel Gillies reminds HuffPost TV, he's already died -- and been resurrected -- four times.
