When Nina Dobrev announced she planned on leaving The Vampire Diaries after its sixth season, “#DontLeaveUsNina” and multiple similar hashtags popped up on Twitter. That's the impact the 26-year-old actress has had on social media with The CW series and vice versa.

The Canadian Degrassi alum has had small roles on The Perks of Being a Wallflower and Let's Be Cops, but she will always be known as Elena Gilbert, the leading lady alongside those awfully pretty Salvatore brothers.

Since the show grew up on social media and the fandoms are crying as we speak, let's take a look back at Nina Dobrev selfies on Instagram, because we sure aren't going to see anymore fangtastic photos, featuring the actress after this show (unless the rumors of her appearing in a Vampire Diaries movie are true).

Get your vampire puns ready. Get set...GO!
