10 Mystic Falls High School Did Not Care About Student Deaths

Mystic Falls High School inevitably became a battleground for supernatural species in The Vampire Diaries, and several showdowns took place within the school premises. Fans couldn't help but wonder why the school authorities didn't take a step to tighten up their security, especially since the town council knew that vampires existed.

Deaths like Vicki's and Sarah's were just brushed under the rug. Typically, even a single student death would create a furor in an educational institution, but Mystic Falls High School was conveniently devoid of any real authority figures.

9 How Compulsion Worked

For most characters like Damon, Elena and Alaric, their compulsions remained intact when they reverted to human form, but in Stefan's case, every person he compelled started remembering the moment Bonnie gave him the cure in Season 8, which led to his arrest.

This was a big retcon in the show and only delegitimized earlier plots where compulsion had stayed intact. The writers shouldn't have created such a big inconsistency for the sake of drama because nobody took Stefan's arc seriously after that.
