Vampire Academy is a series of six young adult paranormal romance novels by American author Richelle Mead. It tells the story of Rosemarie "Rose" Hathaway, a dhampir girl, who is training to be a guardian of her moroi best friend, Vasilisa "Lissa" Dragomir. In the process of learning how to defeat strigoi in St. Vladimir's Academy, Rose finds herself caught in a forbidden romance with her instructor, Dimitri Belikov, while having an unbreakable psychic bond with Lissa. The first book in the series, Vampire Academy, was published in 2007; it was followed by Frostbite in 2008.

The first book in the series was adapted into a film directed by Mark Waters, starring Zoey Deutch, Lucy Fry, Danila Kozlovsky and Dominic Sherwood, released by The Weinstein Company on February 7, 2014. The film was a financial and critical failure. A reboot television series, co-developed by Julie Plec, debuted on September 15, 2022 on Peacock. It was canceled after one season. Overview Vampire Academy follows Dhampir Rosemarie "Rose" Hathaway and her best friend, Moroi princess Vasilissa "Lissa" Dragomir, who after two years on the run, have been brought back to their school, St. Vladimir's Academy. Rose and Lissa become caught in and must entangle themselves from forbidden romances and the Strigoi, evil and dangerous vampires who are set on turning Lissa into one of their own. Frostbite follows Rose and Lissa as they navigate through their tangled love lives, a Strigoi attack which has St. Vladimir on high alert, and a school ski trip crashed by deadly Strigoi. Shadow Kiss follows Rose and Lissa as graduation looms near. Rose begins to have worrying visions, and has fallen in love with her instructor and mentor, Dimitri Belikov. The Strigoi attack St. Vladimir's, and Rose is forced to decide between protecting Lissa, or losing Dimitri. Blood Promise follows Rose as she deals with the aftermath of the recent Strigoi attack on St. Vladimir's. She must decide between honouring her life's vow and protecting Lissa, or leaving the Academy to hunt down Dimitri, who is now a Strigoi. Spirit Bound follows Rose as she returns to St. Vladimir's. While life after graduation awaits both Rose and Lissa, Rose cannot forget about failing to kill Dimitri. Roses fears come true, and Dimitri comes hunting after her, now a Strigoi and wishing for her to join him too. Last Sacrifice follows Rose who is in prison awaiting a wrongful execution, and Lissa who is grappling for the Moroi throne. Both must go to incredible lengths to find freedom, leaning on enemies and friends alike. Main characters Rosemarie "Rose" Hathaway, the narrator. A dhampir teenager training to be a guardian at St. Vladimir's Academy, Rose has a spirit bond with Lissa as a result of being brought back to life by Lissa's magic.

A user of a rare form of magic (spirit), she can bring the dead back to life, heal, and use compulsion. She maintains a bond with Rose throughout the majority of the series. Dimitri Belikov, a twenty-four-year-old Russian dhampir and guardian. He is Rose's primary love interest. Christian Ozera, a Moroi and Lissa's primary love interest. His parents willingly turned Strigoi, causing people to treat him with distrust. Adrian Ivashkov, a Moroi spirit user who dated Rose. Mia Rinaldi, a Moroi water user. Rose and Lissa's enemy (and later, friend) at St. Vladimir's Academy. Abe Mazur, Rose's father and an influential Moroi whom Rose didn't know earlier.
