And the title of the second episode seems like a big, fat spoiler to us: "I Found You." Whether or not Pam will be successful in convincing stubborn Eric to return to Bon Temps is a whole separate issue, but it seems all but confirmed that he will be discovered alive and well at least by the season's second hour.

What happened to Eric Northman?

Eric is shown in the sun on a mountain top in Åre, Sweden when Warlow's blood wears off, causing Eric to burn. In Season 7, Pam tracks down Eric, who somehow avoided meeting the true death. However, he has been infected with the Hepatitis V virus.

Does Eric really die in True Blood?

Due to the others all meeting the True Death as of the final season of the show, Eric is currently the oldest vampire left on the series not taking into consideration other ancient vampires who were never introduced.
