Supernatural is a fantasy series created by Eric Kripke. It first aired on the summer of September 13, 2005. As of today it has a total of 14 seasons with 296 episodes. It continues to be one the the longest running series on televisions and is showing no signs of ending anytime soon.



The whole plot of the series revolves around the story of two brothers who are in search of their father who went missing during a hunting trip. Keep in mind though that this is not just an ordinary hunting trip. No, this hunting trip is not about hunting mere animals for fun, this hunting trip is so much more. Here let us go through some of these so called creatures that are being hunted.

CHANGELINGS

These type of monsters originate form European folklore. A child is stolen form their parents and replaced with a similar looking one. the only way to see its true form is through its reflection wherein you will see that it has hollowed eyes and a rounded mouth full of razor sharp teeth.


ANGELS

Angels are tasked with helping God maintain peace and order in heaven. But their powers are beyond measure. A stray angel is capable of so much destruction. The angel blades that are in their hands can kill humans, demons and even their fellow angels.


DJINN

 These creatures are more commonly known as genies. They have the power to grant all your wishes. In the series however, the djinns use deceit people into wishing for various things. The twist? They lure the people in a coma like state and feed on them until their death.

RUGARU


These creatures are normal human beings until they hit the age of 30 wherein they are overcome by this uncontrollable hungry. This causes them to eat anything and everything including their loved ones. The only way to kill them is to stab them with a silver dagger dipped in lamb's blood.

THE SCARECROW


This scarecrow is way more different than you would lead yourself to believe. It lures people from the road and leads them to their final demise. The only way to overpower this creature is to burn the tree that supposedly gives it life.








The disappearance of their father has led the two brothers towards a chase that will inevitably turn their whole world upside down. As the search for their father continues to dwindle, they go on hunting and killing monsters that are of great danger to humans and even the world . They surpass all the obstacles that the monsters cause along the way.

Despite all the hardships that they have to go through every single day, they still choose to risk their lives in order to make sure that no one else is hurt or even killed by the creatures who we share this world with.





Personally my favorite character in the show is Dean Winchester who is portrayed by Jensen Ackles.
I relate because of how he handles and reacts to certain situations. His carefree attitude is quite similar to mine.



His love for pie is absolutely relatable as who does not love pie?



And his expression that one time a dead body fell out of a cupboard?

PRICELESS!





If there was anything that I would change about the plot it would be the sudden disappearance of their father. This is because I would also want to see how they would get along with one another. Their hunting trips would have been a lot more different than one would expect.
