Sabine has always been surrounded by the supernatural --- she just doesn't realize it.  Or more accurately, she just doesn't fully realize it because some part of the truth has seeped into her brain and taken root. 

Ever since she was a child, she loved a good ghost story.  Her parents say they have no idea where this love comes from and at times worried about her but by all accounts she is a fairly well adjusted human being (as well adjusted as anyone can be, of course).  Since her teen years, she has collected ghost stories, folklore and supernatural related literature.  She was able to parlay this into an actual career, which made her parents happy.  She attended university to study literature (with a concentration in folkore).  She then followed this with a teaching degree and currently teaches high school English.

While she loves teaching, her real passion remains her collection of supernatural information --- and her podcast. She recently started one called Darkness Falls in which she discusses all things supernatural.  To her, these stories are metaphors fro the human behavior.  She isn't afraid to interpret what she thinks she means.  She doesn't realize the truth of what she says, and by the time she does, it just might be too late for her. 

Please note: Sabine is an OC based in the TVDU. Like all my OCs, I classify her as a work in progress and will periodically add to my bio or post headcanons (which are linked below).
