The Original is a spin-off where we follow the original vampire family from The Vampire Diaries. They are known as the first vampires and the ancestor of all existing vampires.

I find this spin-off to actually be better than the original series. The reason for this is probably that it is not as teen-focused as the Vampire Diary.

The Originals might be a spinoff from Vampire Diaries, but it targets a slightly older audience. You do not need to watch Vampire Diaries first.

Teen Wolf is more of a teen supernatural show. It's not as good as True Blood, especially if you don't like teen shows. But if you're OK with teen shows then Teen Wolf is worth checking out.
