Welcome back Helsingers<\/a> and WormholeRiders<\/a>!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Episodes twelve and thirteen of season five, \u201cThe Voices\u201d and \u201cNovissima Solis\u201d were written by Jackie May<\/a> and Jonathan Walker<\/a> and directed by Alexandra La Roche<\/a> and Michael Nankin<\/a> respectively. These entertainment industry veterans produced a superb series finale that all Van Helsing series<\/a> fans should be applauding!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These two episodes wrapped the Van Helsing series<\/a> story arc in a beautiful fashion with the fans of the series getting a real treat. Virtually all the characters survived with the exception of Bathory The Oracle (Jesse Stanley<\/a>), The Dark One (Tricia Helfer<\/a>) and Vanessa (Kelly Overton<\/a>) who survived but sacrificed herself when the enchanted amulet was destroyed by The Dark One just prior to trapping Dracula inside of it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Vanessa, knowing that she cannot live with the darkness inside herself, at the end, places herself in a deep comatose sleep much like in the 2016 pilot episode in order to contain the evil of Dracula from escaping again. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Tricia Helfer character of sweet Olivia was restored to her human form, but will be living in the present time subsequent to our heroes defeating The Dark One. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Vanessa, although not killed in the series finale, bids farewell to her daughters and lives in a realm she has created where she is happy and fulfilled with what she has accomplished over the preceding five seasons.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Coming well after the death of the beloved Julius character, portrayed by Aleks Paunovic<\/a> in \u201cGraveyard Smash<\/a>\u201d, \u201cThe Voices\u201d and \u201cNovissima Solis\u201d episodes were the perfect way to please viewers of the Van Helsing series<\/a>.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

By taking our heroes Axel (Jonathan Scarfe<\/a>), Jack (Nicole Mu\u00f1oz<\/a>), Violet (Keeya King<\/a>) and Ivory (Jennifer Cheon Garcia<\/a>) out of an extremely dangerous situation that could have led to the death or enslavement of all the characters in the series finale, and sending them on new paths into the future.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Special thanks are due for all the directors and writers of Van Helsing series<\/a> such as Matt Venables<\/a> and Jeremy Smith<\/a>, and executive story editor Gorman Lee. Extra special thanks to Chad Oakes<\/a>, Mike Frislev<\/a> from Dynamic Television<\/a>, series creator Neil LaBute<\/a>, as well as all multi season producers and co-executive producers including Show Runner Jonathan Walker<\/a>, Todd Giroux<\/a>, Morris Chapdelaine<\/a>, Jonathan Scarfe<\/a>, and Kelly Overton<\/a>. It goes without saying, that extraordinary thanks belong to all the crews<\/a> that worked behind the scenes, all the supporting actors<\/a>, AND to SYFY<\/a> for bringing joy to the lives of the Van Helsing series<\/a> lovers over the past five seasons!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As we stated on Twitter, the series finale episode was superb! In this way, the Van Helsing series<\/a> story arc has been brought to a satisfying conclusion. Importantly, as Show Runner Jonathan Walker shared in his interview<\/a> with Team WHR<\/a>, \u201cleft hooks\u201d<\/em> that could spawn a spin off or mini-series in the future.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We hope that this will occur, however as we shared on Twitter the night of the series finale: <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cDon’t cry because it is over, smile because Van Helsing happened in our lives for the past five years!\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
