The cast of The Vampire Diaries have revealed that they love working on the flashbacks.

Nina Dobrev, who plays Elena and Katherine, told TV Squad that she often feels as if she has time-travelled.

“I like the flashbacks,” she said. “We all have fun because we get to go into a different time frame and get to do period work and put on these different costumes. When you’re on a film set, not only do you look different, but it’s a whole different world that they create.”

She added: “It’s a challenge and it’s different, so we’re very lucky. I love it because I get to put on the corset and the dress and play dress-up and get to fight people. It’s great.”

Meanwhile, Paul Wesley (Stefan) and Ian Somerhalder (Damon) explained that they like exploring different sides of their characters.

“There are different relationships,” Wesley said. “Damon and I love one another. We’re innocent, naive boys, and we fall in love with the wrong girl – or the right girl, that’s subjective – who makes us who we are.”

Somerhalder added: “I think that this woman came into their lives, really inspired them and made them think and feel things that they had never felt. However, having said that, the naiveté also lends itself to complete bliss. You get to see Stefan and Damon having so much fun together. It’s such a startling contrast to what you generally see them as.”

The Vampire Diaries returns for its second season on September 9 on The CW.
