Michael Narducci offers more insights into the current 4th season of The CW's series which include 'one relationship that we haven't even begun to explore' and 'a very dark very scary presence.'

AceShowbiz - After "The Originals" jumps five years ahead since the end of season three, a lot of things have changed on the show. To help viewers handle things to come to the family and the city of New Orleans throughout the current season 4, executive producer Michael Narducci offers a few important tidbits which include new romances and one big scary ghost.

"There's one relationship that we haven't even begun to explore, which we are going to see blossom into something I'm extremely excited for the audience to see," teases Narducci during in an interview with E! News.

Narducci also reveals that in addition to the new romance, another couple, whom many people think is done, is making a return. "There's another relationship that everybody just assumes is over, and that relationship is going to bounce back in a very major way," says the EP.

However, season 4 will not always be all about love and romance as a new threat is coming for the Mikaelsons and the whole people in the city. "What we have this season is basically a giant storm is on the horizon, something that threatens all of our characters-not just Marcel, not just the Mikaelsons, not just the children of New Orleans, but everybody," Narducci opens up.

"There's a big storm coming, and how will all the different players react to this thing that's coming? It's not a literal storm, it is the return of this very dark very scary presence and a haunting that is going to take place and will play out more and more over the course of every subsequent episode, so we're really excited to see not only what that thing is, but to play with the horror tropes that we see in a haunting but also how our characters will react to that," he goes on explaining.

Narducci mentions that the new threat is something that may be familiar to anyone who is from New Orleans. He reveals that they draw some inspiration from actual New Orleans lore when they created "this fictional ghost and this presence and this evil" for the spin-off to "The Vampire Diaries". "This is some kind of magic, some kind of a presence that is native to New Orleans, something that has been there for a very long time," he says.

He continues, "We wanted to play with some of the history of New Orleans and some of the different elements and things that have happened over the course of New Orleans history and we certainly wanted to tap into what we had established in our fictional universe with regard to Vincent Griffith [Yusuf Gatewood], Eva Sinclair [Maisie Richardson-Sellers], witches dabbling in very powerful magic, and there always being consequences to that."

"The Originals" season 4 airs Fridays at 8 P.M. on The CW.
