The Vampire Diaries was primarily filmed in Covington, Georgia, which stood in for the fictional town of Mystic Falls. Some scenes were also shot in nearby Conyers, Georgia, and the pilot was filmed in Vancouver before production moved to Georgia.

Filming spots

  • Covington’s town square is one of the main filming backdrops.
  • Lockwood Mansion was used for several key scenes.
  • The quarry used on the show served as Mystic Falls’ waterfall.

Useful note

If you’re looking to visit, Covington is the best place to start because it’s the town most closely associated with the show.
