‘The Originals’ CW Spoilers: Season 4, Episode 7 Synopsis And Promo Released Online [VIDEO]

What is the worst type of enemy to be up against? A ghost. Last week’s episode of CW’s “The Originals” saw Klaus (Joseph Morgan) and Elijah (Daniel Gillies) put a face and a name to all the servants of the mysterious villain called The Hollow. The blue-colored orb needs to feed in order to maintain its presence on the Earthly plane.

Worse still, The Hollow is desperate to absorb Klaus and Marcel’s (Charles Michael Davis) powers. Now the servants of the malevolent force are determined to transform it into a physical form. All that is needed is a quartet of bones. Unfortunately, Sofya (Taylor Cole) got her hands on one set of bones that Klaus had. She stole it during a party he threw to find out The Hollow’s followers.

Fortunately, Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) discovered that her parents had safely locked up one set of bones required for The Hollow to take a physical shape.
