That’s right, years before Paul Wesley was cast as Stefan in the Vampire Diaries, he played Luke Cates in the series Wolf Lake. The short-lived show began on CBS in 2001, then moved to UPN. Only 10 episodes aired.

Wolf Lake, set in the Pacific Northwest, explores what happens when a Seattle suburb is overtaken by werewolves. Socialite Life has screen caps from an episode showing Paul and some of the other characters nude. While the pictures show, well, a side of Paul that hasn’t been seen on Vampire Diaries, the most striking thing may be the fact that he hasn’t aged a day in the eight years since Wolf Lake.

Once again, there are Twilight connections. Not only is Wolf Lake set in the same area as Twilight, and both deal with werewolves, they share an actor as well. Graham Greene, who plays Harry Clearwater in Eclipse, was in Wolf Lake with Paul as Sherman Blackstone.

It seems that in the realm of werewolves and vampires, it really is a small world.
