TO314-017~Stefan-Freya

Stefan meets Freya in The Originals

A Crossover Episode is the placement of two or more shows combining the characters, settings or universe into a single episode conjoined with either a spin-off or an entirely different series. In this case, The Originals is the spin-off of the The Vampire Diaries as The Original family was associated with the parent show, until the storyline developed and The Originals had succeeded with their own show. The same way Hope Mikaelson's storyline from The Originals continues in Legacies.

On that note, if a character moves to another show in a main or recurring capacity like the whole Original Family in The Originals or Alaric Saltzman and Dorian Williams in Legacies, such instances are not considered a crossover.

The other exceptions are Elijah and Rebekah Mikaelson in 500 Years of Solitude who are credited as a "Special guest stars" despite never being series regulars on The Vampire Diaries. Similary, Aurora de Martel was never a series regular on The Originals but is credited as a "Special guest star" on Legacies.
