American screenwriter Kevin Williamson is reportedly in the early stages of developing a spinoff to The Vampire Diaries.

The Hollywood Reporter claims the show would be a companion series rather than a standalone spinoff, and would run concurrently with the main show.

The potential new series is being described as "The X-Files meets Buffy The Vampire Slayer".

Despite the rumour, it is noted that there is currently no script or deal for the show, and that Williamson is still in the early stages of developing the concept.

The Vampire Diaries, launched on The CW network in 2009, is currently airing its second season.
