Synopsis

Vampire Academy (2022), Season 1 — a fantasy drama in ten episodes you can watch online on iFILM. It adapts Richelle Mead's young-adult novels about a hidden world of vampire aristocracy and the guardians sworn to protect it.

Two friends stand on opposite sides of a rigid class line. Lissa is royal Moroi blood, terrified that her unusual magic will expose her. Rose is a dhampir trained to be her guardian, ready to shield Lissa even when it costs her own standing at court. The season pulls them from the academy's walls into the scramble around an emptying throne — a royal tour, the Guardian trials, the secrets of Victor's house, and a threat creeping in from beyond the Dominion's wards. As the fight for power escalates, loyalty between the two girls gets pricier by the episode.

Showrunners Julie Plec and Marguerite MacIntyre care less about fangs and fights than about friendship and inequality. A solid pick for fans of Twilight-era YA fantasy and The Vampire Diaries. Stream Vampire Academy Season 1 online on iFILM.
