Following JR Bourne’s return to Beacon Hills this week,

is welcoming back another fan-favorite actor in Season 5B — but this one comes with a 

Teen Wolf Season 5B Premiere: Star Tyler Posey Reacts to ‘Dark’ Twists, Previews New Threats Still to Come

Crystal Reed — who portrayed Allison Argent, before the character’s untimely death in Season 3 — will return to the MTV drama in the coming weeks, though she 

be playing the former love of Scott McCall’s life.

BuzzFeed reports that Reed will guest-star in the Feb. 23 episode, “The Maid of Gévaudan,” which takes viewers back to 1700s France. There, we’ll meet Marie-Jeanne Valet, one of the earliest members of the Argent family line — played by Reed.

Reed tweeted her excitement about getting back to her roots, along with a photo of her new character:

Are you excited for Reed’s big return? Have you fully accepted that we’ve seen the last of Allison? Drop a comment with all of your thoughts below.

Ugh, why can’t she just come back full time and we’ll just pretend all of this never happened. Scott can wake up, find her in the shower and the last 2 seasons were all just a bad dream.

Lydia is learning more about her powers, I wouldn’t be surprised if she would be able to communicate with Allison/bring someone back to life.

Cool. Havent watched TW in years but I’ll check this out. Im surprised Crystal hasnt found any kind of steady acting work after leaving. But this is probably bound to get some attention, so I wonder how they might try and bring her back on a more regular basis. Her death was pretty definite.

Well, considering that Tyler Posey and Arden Cho have not even one iota of romantic chemistry and considering that 1) what the show has needed is both Allison and her father and 2) the writers seem to be reluctant to pull the trigger on either a much-teased Lydia-Scott pairing or a Malia-Scott pairing, I think they’re playing with fire bringing Reed back even for a great flashback idea like this one. It just begs the idea that, if they’re going to insist on Allison staying dead, they should bringing this character forward via time travel. Like, hey, French Outlander In Reverse! .

But, really, the Nemeton should be used to bring Allison back to life.

Where are you getting this “much teased” Lydia-Scott pairing from? Are we watching the same show? The only “much teased” relationship I see Lydia being a part of is with Stiles.

There has been hardly any teasing except for one kiss to stop stiles’ panic attack. She doesn’t even like him like that. Anyway, great to see Crystal come back, even if its just for a flashback :)

Lol I guess her career didn’t blossom the way she thought it would when she asked to be let out of her contract.

That’s what I’m thinking, she realized she had it good!

iirc, the issue was more that she was playing a high schooler while she was almost thirty.

I stopped watching the show when she left… wish they’d just bring her character back somehow.

OH that’s fun! The death of Allison was the final nail in the coffin for me and I stopped watching.

Teen Wolf has been surprisingly good even in its 5th season. I’m all about Crystal Reed coming back even if it is only for 1 episode. On another note, is Arden Cho still on the show? I don’t even remember any of her storyline. She’s the one character I wish they would kill off(if she hasn’t already been).

I’m so excited that Crystal Reed is coming back even if it isn’t as Allison Argent. See, I can’t really imagine any way that Allison could be brought back permanently without screwing things up. Crystal is back, even if it’s only for one episode, and I couldn’t be happier with it.

You are ok with werewolves, banshees, hell hounds, death doctors, and a guy with a big hole in his head but you cant imagine a world where they bring someone back from the dead. Okay. We are talking about a show where last season they turned Derek in to a teenage boy.

Allison could easily be one of the hallucinations Lydia experiences while in Eichen, which they should’ve done originally instead of using Aiden

Ok I am an avid fan of the early seasons of Teen Wolf int he aspect of they should never never have stopped the Scott and Alison (Modern version Romeo/ Juliet) type pair… they were electric from the very first ep!! When I picked up the first season I was hooked! They were more then just teen drama! Teen Wolf Can weather having Crystal back for one ep but i think Jeff Davis must have big balls to take such a risk! It is stirring up all the fans as we can see lol… perhaps that is a way of free promotion …. I am sure they get why they do it… I just think she was selfish… I will not Bash Cho.. I think the Kaira/ Scott is not bad… I did honestly think Scott x Malia was more of a chemical thing to me personally. I am 29 lol so I honestly stopped looking at relationships of actors as something real and real relationships as something you can define in anyway. I like most of the story thus far wish they had a bit more to the action with Scott being a True Alpha… kinda tired f him never using strength much and then haveing it suddenly… He is strong… i am kinda tired of him getting written like it is season 1… anyway that about it sorry for this spam of a post!!

Cool. The Beast of Gévaudan was initially killed by a Argent ancestor so given Teen Wolf’s penchant for flashbacks, it does make sense that they get one of the Argent actors to play them.

I refuse to give up hope that Allison will be resurrected. They did her dirty the last time. With everything going on its plausible The Dread Doctors have her. We need her back. She belongs with Scott, and quite frankly the show suffers without her. I’m sure they can think of a storyline (ie-the bathtub limbo) that can bring us Allison back. I’m glad Crystal is back even if its another character. But I’m still rooting for Allison.

i guess now sharman’s gone, she feels comfortable returning, but i’m still sad she hasn’t found more interesting work, she could definitely do better.

I’m pretty sure this is meant to misdirect fans to make them think she isn’t returning as Allison. Yes she will be playing this new character in the flashback but I bet by the end of the season she will be back as Allison….

Lets hope they do resurrect Allison. The show needs her. It was a shame killing her off anyways.

I know Crystal has said before that she wouldn’t want come back onto the show but I really hope she changes her mind and they resurrect Allison. It wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibilities in Teen Wolf and it would really help the show. The show hasn’t been the same since her departure, it lost something special when she left. I miss her so much and Scott could really use her right now. With Lydia discovering more of her abilities, there are ways that they could bring her back that would be awesome story telling and would add so much to the show.

The Gevaudan incident was used in the awesome Brotherhood of the Wolf, would be great if they could use some of the same actors for the episode

I am beyond happy that Crystal Reed is returning. She said in an interview that there is talk of creating a spin-off show of her new character. That would be so exciting!! Fingers crossed that the show is made!
