It only makes sense even he knew Elijah could start lil broing everyone if he is pushed beyond his limit shit i’d be terrified too if i was in klaus’s position.
@@hammadkhurram5699yes, and only way that could happen is if had been put under a spell or compelled by stronger like Elijah was by Marcel. Elijah and Klaus I believe are actually darn near equal in strength, even with Klaus being a hybrid. Elijah the only one can go toe to toe with Klaus out of all their siblings and that is mainly due to the fact that Klaus left him undaggered longer than the rest. So Elijah was able to hone his skills and gain real world power and not just power based on his age, in a sense.
Elijah absolutely carries the entire spinoff show, and in TVD he's the only ancient vampire that actually acts like an ancient vampire. Compare that to Lexi and his vengeful lover, the absolute worst offenders of the show, and how they talk like contemporary teenagers. Seriously, a 300+ years old vampire doesn't call their eternal lover and companion a freaking "girlfriend". xD
@@alexman378 bullshit. The performance is good, but to say that no other actor could've pulled it off is inhaling one's own farts. Elijah is easily the best written character in either show.
Elijah is scarier than Klaus because Klaus is predictable, he goes slowly crazy until he boils. Elijah is calm and unpredictable, he’s just calmly speaking to u then slaps your head clean off
@@Jbhavine klaus is a beast, scary but predictable, you KNOW what you will get. elijah is a demon, looks serene and gentlemenly, almost even noble, but inside he is dark as hell, he is what a true devil is, sweet words of wisdom and nobility, an appearance that sooths you and opens you but inside there is only darkness awaits you.
@@Drethedreamer415He's only wrong if you believe Finn is correct in his assessment. Personally, I don't and I find Elijah more unpredictable and terrifying. ❤
Cmon this is just simply untrue. They were absolutely terrified of klaus wrath after they noticed he woken from the golden dagger, and rightfully so, look what happened
@@SpookeyClown pretty sure it was he was supposed to be a one n done character but the writers liked the actor a lot and so did audiences intest screenings. So they made him a more permanent character and made him an original.
It's because he was more likely to compel rather than kill (Rebekah's words) Only when he was backing Klaus did he kill those that betrayed them... All of them quickly learned, it wasn't that he was an easter bunny... It was that he had a code... But when put to the test he never failed the assignment..
When Elijah first showed up he was fucking terrifying, and then to think there was someone even worse the him 😂 they truly built up klaus in TVD. Even Katherine was scared of Elijah an you know ur fucked when shes scared of someone 😂😂
I love that it’s another show of strength by Elijah that he never actually killed any of Marcel’s night walkers. It’s a show of restraint which in itself is strength. He’s telling all of them “I’m simply humoring you. If I wanted to every single one of you would be dead” but instead all he does is maim or incapacitate them. Had the wolves not intervened, I’m sure he would’ve let them live after humbling them
Exactly...i hated it too...he would've killed Damon when he first tried to stake him...😅 Except they gave a stupid excuse for it that Salvatores will protect Elena better,as if Elijah isn't capable of protecting Elena 🤣. That's how i knew i don't like that show...
@@RuanAntunes7 You can keep OP characters OP without being boring by using situations around them - requires more set up, or delving into character development stories. Plenty of writers have managed to do it well.
when she look at inside klaus she just saw another wolf, a damaged and angry one but still a wolf, like her. when she looked inside elijah she just saw what he actually was a devil in angel clothes.
I always loved Elijah because he was so noble and he hid his monster inside. Until he let it come out play which was scary. All his siblings were scared. He protects his own.
Elijah may be noble and keeps his Word, but he’s also smart enough to find a work around. Being particular with your words is important. He said those people wouldn’t die by his brothers hands, but said nothing about his own. Then again with turning the house into a landmark making it eminent domain. He’s smart, that’s what makes him scarier. Klaus is brute force. Elijah may be slower to act but he’s tactical and strategic and in the end his way ends up making the biggest impact
Everyone expects this from Klaus. Elijah is a true master of psychological warfare. It's really a case of "Fear not the bold, but the gentleman" (don't remember the exact quote) and "Expect the unexpected".
I love Elijah what makes him so scary is how calm he always is in any situation. Klaus has a temper you know it’s coming but Elijah’s calm you never know what’s going to happen.
Elijah was terrifying. Klaus was just a big kid throwing tantrums and even him knew when not to play with Elijah. Elijah was one of the best characters to have graced tv
❤❤❤ That's why I love this show so much! No turning into bats or getting all glittery in the sunlight. Just vampires being what they're known for Brutal, charismatic, seductive, extremely fast and very strong ❤
ELIJAH MIKAELSON IS MORE FIERCE AND FRIGHTENING THAN NIKLAUS MIKAELSON IN ALL ASPECTS HE'S BRILLIANT + MASTER STRATEGIST + BETTER COMBATANT + ELEGANT FASHION! EVEN NIKLAUS MIKAELSON HIMSELF SAID HIS BIG BROTHER ELIJAH MIKAELSON IS MORE OR A MONSTER AN ABOMINATION THAN HIM #TEAMELIJAHMIKAELSON #MYFAVORITEORIGINAL #BESTORIGINALVAMPIRE
Elijah is incredibly powerful. He is calm, unlike Klaus. I am not saying Klaus is weak, but sometimes he is all threats and bark, but no bite. Elijah is a bit of a dark horse. You don't know what he will do until it is too late. Needless to say.... Elijah is my favourite and the best out of all of them.
My favorite scene with Elijah was in originals when he walked into the church after promising the withes his brother wouldn’t harm anyone and he he killed everyone and said no one touches/harms my family and lives. I wished originals would have lasted longer
i love that the necklace ended up being Rebekah’s but because elijah wasn’t supposed to live per the writers original plans he just doesnt recognize it or say anything
He's more scarier because he's hiding the monster behind the act of a noble gentleman 😭
He's scarier because his brutality is controlled and has that graceful calculated cruelty to it. That and the absolutely frightful resolve.
people fear klaus when he mad
people fear elijah when hes calm
@@thatoneasian28 Then again, Klaus is always mad, and Elijah is always calm ^^
@@khatack thats what makes elijah scarier. more intimidating. people also respect elijah more than klaus.
@@thatoneasian28 Agree 100% ^^
I love how Klaus is even terrified when people push Elijah to far.
It only makes sense even he knew Elijah could start lil broing everyone if he is pushed beyond his limit shit i’d be terrified too if i was in klaus’s position.
@@darkyozora1222 Yes it's true but i also think once if Klaus forgets he is his brother than it will be over for him.

I agree with you all
Elijah is basically a walking definition of “fuck around and find out”
Literally
I love how Elijah weaponizes his Knowledge of everything.
He was rlly out here taking the phrase knowledge is power way beyond the extremes lmao
I still think that Elijah is one of the best characters to grace the television; so layered and refined

Honesty, he's the most perfect vampire in all of TVD
Me too
The performance largely pulls it off. On paper, had any other actor played him, he’d be pretty boring.

This comment on elijah reminds me of my high school teacher one minute your standing the next you find yourself on the floor
Actually it’s stated in the show by Finn that klaus is unpredictable, never know what he going to do or planning so ur actually really wrong
@@Drethedreamer415He's only wrong if you believe Finn is correct in his assessment. Personally, I don't and I find Elijah more unpredictable and terrifying. ❤
Elijah is the real OG he just lets Klaus play the bad guy from time to time. But when push comes to shove, even Klaus knows when to shut up lol
Yea because klaus knows if you push elijah that far you are beyond screwed
Also Elijah is the older brother as well
@@mrsg0053Personally, I don't think Elijah being older than Klaus has anything to with Elijah's calculated brutality. 🤔
@@Brit626 it doesn't
Cmon this is just simply untrue. They were absolutely terrified of klaus wrath after they noticed he woken from the golden dagger, and rightfully so, look what happened
Klaus's face when Elijah killed the bunch of ppl after saying that he couldn't kill them 😂
Elijah didn't say he couldn't kill them just that he couldn't kill the woman as he gave her his word but he had planned on killing her himself.
@@claudiakellier-reid6925 Yeah, I meant that lmao
klaus didnt want to because he wanted elijah to forgive him for daggering him
Klaus wasn’t scared but suprised and unexpected, he’s scene his brother that way many times so it doesn’t happen a lot
@@Drethedreamer415 I didn't say he was scared lol
Elijah is the scariest but an absolute gentleman. Daniel Gillies mastered this role. The best Original ever.
"youre making a mistake if you think that you can beat me....*power pose* ...you can't"
Then he gets his face melted and body impaled by a coat rack.

100%.
Has the simple task of someone just entering a house ever been scarier or more dramatic?
Nope, only Elijah could pull that off in true style.
@@claudiakellier-reid6925yea cause he’s Elijah

I love how he takes the handkerchief out to clean his hands
It was funny when Tristan gave him a handkerchief after he killed one of Tristan's men 😂😂
The way her face changes when he mentions that the house is public property...she knew she was screwed after that😂😂😂😂😂
100% agree Elijah is my favourite Original.
Elijah is deliciously evil.
I just hate how they nerfed all the originals to like nothing at all I just love their badass moments
Exactly...i hated it too...he would've killed Damon when he first tried to stake him...😅 Except they gave a stupid excuse for it that Salvatores will protect Elena better,as if Elijah isn't capable of protecting Elena 🤣.

Hayley knew the monster. She was scared of Elijah but was never scared of Klaus
You are right
because she saw what elijah truly was like and she knew that klaus wouldnt do anything to end her life
when she look at inside klaus she just saw another wolf, a damaged and angry one but still a wolf, like her.
when she looked inside elijah she just saw what he actually was
a devil in angel clothes.
Until the Red Door
I wonder why she was so surprised that Elijah was a monster just like Klaus and the rest of the siblings.
She herself was a monster to.
I always loved Elijah because he was so noble and he hid his monster inside. Until he let it come out play which was scary. All his siblings were scared. He protects his own.
I always tell everyone that Elijah is the most dangerous. It's always the quiet ones❤
I love how Elijah has his own theme song
Elijah may be noble and keeps his Word, but he’s also smart enough to find a work around. Being particular with your words is important. He said those people wouldn’t die by his brothers hands, but said nothing about his own. Then again with turning the house into a landmark making it eminent domain.
He’s smart, that’s what makes him scarier. Klaus is brute force. Elijah may be slower to act but he’s tactical and strategic and in the end his way ends up making the biggest impact
The last scene always makes me smile. “Don’t bluff me…” Elijah after some much needed boasting steps inside the threshold. Priceless.
What's scary is how calm he is but I love him anyway
Y’all didn’t even include best bada*** scene!!! When he threw the change through the window at the Vampire Cafe. That was iconic
"Oh! not nessecarily."
That line explains Elijah Mikaelson.
Gentlemen, shall we?!
Its 2024 and I still watch this show from time to time, it has great story lines and really good actors! 👍
It remains one of the greatest vampire series of all times.
when he lost his memories we saw that he can be stronger than klaus
Out of the brothers he was so cool calm and truly professional and the accent awesome and yeah scary as hell
Everyone expects this from Klaus. Elijah is a true master of psychological warfare. It's really a case of "Fear not the bold, but the gentleman" (don't remember the exact quote) and "Expect the unexpected".
"There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man."
When Elijah unbuttons his jacket be worried, but when the jacket comes off then be afraid.
All of this done in a suit or almost all … love his character
I love Elijah so cool, calm and collected yet the deadliest, scariest vampire of them all
I love Elijah what makes him so scary is how calm he always is in any situation. Klaus has a temper you know it’s coming but Elijah’s calm you never know what’s going to happen.
And that's what makes him so deadly. He'd take your heart (literally) and serve you tea at the same time!! 😅
The way he pulls out the hearts and holds them out for show, God I love it
"Thank you for having the good sense to be frightened" - Elijah
He takes that single step across the threshold with as much swagger as Klaus would behead someone.
Damon looking at Elijah ready to fight an unkillable Original for Elena is actually so fckn cute 🥺🥺
3:13 the way he casually ask "what'd I miss?"
That eminent domain bit is just too funny. Not even the supernatural laws governing vampires are safe from the government.
I like how Elijah could tell if Elena was on vervain before he compelled her.
the fact that he is actually scarier then klaus.
His calmness literally is terrifying, so cool
Elijah was and is always the scariest brother
Elijah was terrifying. Klaus was just a big kid throwing tantrums and even him knew when not to play with Elijah. Elijah was one of the best characters to have graced tv
He is the real terror. The calm terrifying unpredictable psychopath with his switch on.
Elijah had a code, friends could be enemies and no one can touch his family,he is the most intelligent member, he is also very informed
The last minutes of Girero is amazing, she thought he couldn’t enter but alas…. 😂😂😂😂😂
That scene where her smile and pride fading into fear and terror towards the end……SO GOOD!
The part where Damon was impressed with Elijah’s skills was funny as hell 😂
Klaus's face when Elijah killed the witch is priceless
1:54 I can't believe I never realised this the first time, how he found out Elena had vervain is because he tried to compel her but it failed.
The first ever episode of TVD I watched was the one where Elijah appears. And since then I was hooked ❤
I would of liked to see full Red Door Elijah and full Ripper Mode Stefan both having a mischief competion to see who can out bad ass another yeah.
❤❤❤
That's why I love this show so much!
No turning into bats or getting all glittery in the sunlight.
Just vampires being what they're known for
Brutal, charismatic, seductive, extremely fast and very strong ❤
Exactly
Elijah is calm, strategic, calculated and extremely empathetic which make him significantly more dangerously deadly and unpredictable than Klaus.
7:14 reaction was priceless
church scene is the best
slapping the head off of that dude was insane the first time I saw it, one of the most violent things I've ever seen in a show/movie
i think it's time for me to finally rewatch the originals
ELIJAH MIKAELSON IS MORE FIERCE AND FRIGHTENING THAN NIKLAUS MIKAELSON IN ALL ASPECTS HE'S BRILLIANT +
MASTER STRATEGIST + BETTER COMBATANT + ELEGANT FASHION! EVEN NIKLAUS MIKAELSON HIMSELF SAID HIS BIG BROTHER ELIJAH MIKAELSON IS MORE OR A MONSTER AN ABOMINATION THAN HIM #TEAMELIJAHMIKAELSON #MYFAVORITEORIGINAL #BESTORIGINALVAMPIRE
Elijah in TVD: 💀👹⛓️🔪
Elijah in The Originals: 💀👹🥰💕
That eyebrow raise and part smile before he asks if shes negotiating.... 😏🤭
The Look on Francesca's face looked absolutely priceless when she realized of how screwed she really was at that moment
He's the kind of ' guy' that takes a hold on ure heart.........

Elijah was definition of true psychopath.And Originals is still second best supernatural show.
When it's comes to war, no strategy beats klaus's own, he's so smart and deadly, Elijah is so unpredictable, Kol is a lunatic, Rebecca is just Rebecca
It's always the quiet ones.
I think it's safe to say that the world just got more dangerous without this noble monster
0:28 Elijah was too stunned to know there was a petrova doppelganger
2:53 Damon be like: fuck me daddy right here😂
Lol 😂😂😂
He should have been named "The King of Hearts" 😂
Elijahs superpower: No hesitation.
It's always the quiet ones indeed❤ Elijah my forever
Smiling at 5:24 was a combination admiration, brag ("like yeah, that's my big bro") and pride.
Clause thinking about how much he loves his big brother 😂
Great montage. The one and only. My favourite OG.
between both the originals and vamp diaries Elijah was EASILY my fav vamp
I love Elijah, especially when he’s bad ass
Of course Elijah is a big brother off course he is combination of both gentlemen and evil...
good thing he’s my fav
seeing this after a decade, I never realized how goofy the vampire speedy movements looked lmao, straight out of Tom & Jerry
@@Ar1AnX1x fr😭
i love that the necklace ended up being Rebekah’s but because elijah wasn’t supposed to live per the writers original plans he just doesnt recognize it or say anything
My favorite Original
7:14 that fading smile is just priceless
I feel like vampire diaries Elijah was a little more unhinged
Elijah the toughest, Klaus the smartest, Claire the fiercest
the last clip was always my favorite lol
Elijah is my spirit animal
Why is it that even when killing ppl Elijah has a suit on and manages to not get any blood on it.
1000 years of practice? 🤷♂️
To me Elijah was always scarier than Klaus because he is a monster hidding behind the facead of a noblemen. Like a real psicopat actually does.
Klaus actually does all this stuff to prevent someone else from pissing off Elijah.
Sometimes the scariest person isint the one who flaunts
Hes terrifying because he's cool in the moment next second corpses are on display with him
What makes the last scene so funny is how elijah was acting and the woman reaction lmao
