Do You Know Your Supernatural Lore? Take The Quiz To Find Out

Supernatural began airing on The CW in 2005 and as of this year, it was renewed for a 14th season! That's pretty incredible for a show to be going on so long, but considering it has so many dedicated fans, it's obvious to us that it isn't showing any signs of slowing down any time soon. Honestly, we can't complain about that. Even though the season 13 finale, which airs in May 2018, will be a total of 285 episodes for the show, we're not tired of it yet. We can't wait to tune in to see what kind of monsters or creatures that the Winchester brothers are going to be up against each week.

Watching Supernatural kind of makes us wish we could be a monster hunter like them, too. Do you ever think about how you know so much about all these creatures from watching the show that they'd be no match for you? Do you think you know exactly what kind of bullet kills a werewolf? Do you remember what a Wendigo eats?

If you think you'd be a perfect addition to the Winchester brothers' team of hunters, take this quiz! Only the most dedicated Supernatural fans know all the lore from the show.

Question 1

What do Crossroad Demons "buy" from people?

Crossorads Demons are demons that have been tasked with coming to Earth to talk to humans in order to "buy" something from them. They got their name from the fact that these particular demons can be summoned at crossroads by humans who are looking to sell to them for their own personal gain. These demons have red eyes and are allied with the King of the Crossroads. Their deals with humans are only temporarily beneficial to humans as after they die, the deal states that they go to Hell and become a demon.

Question 2

How is a Wendigo created?

In the second ever episode of Supernatural, we see a pretty terrifying creature called a Wendigo. The Wendigo is a humanoid creature that stands significantly taller than any human with an emaciated body that has bones sticking out and pale, loose skin. They have sharp teeth and claws to rip their prey open and are characterized by the fact that they're constantly hungry and always ready to eat someone who comes too close to them. How is a Wendigo created?

Question 3

What is Bobby's soul tied to?

One of the most heartbreaking and unexpected moments in Supernatural comes when the boys lose Bobby. Nobody could have expected it, especially since he seemed to be the only one who never acted like a crazy idjit. But, in true dramatic and Supernatural fashion, Bobby doesn't exactly stay dead and helps the boys even in the afterlife. He helps them to clear out the most haunted house in America and even helps them to defeat the leviathan. What's keeping his soul tied to the world of the living?

Question 4

Which of the following characters is a vampire?

Vampires have made their appearance in countless movies, TV shows, and books, so it's no surprise that they made an appearance in at least a couple episodes of Supernatural. Supernatural is seriously the home of all the scariest supernatural creatures out there, including these blood suckers. Each place that vampires have appeared have their own lore, including the cure for vampirism and vast networks of nests. But do you remember which one of Dean's friends form purgatory is actually a vampire?

Question 5

What common household thing can create a seal against evil?

Sam and Dean often find themselves painted into a corner, but it's usually their own decision. A bottleneck is always helpful when the enemy is either more numerous or more powerful than you. They also spend a lot of time protecting others who aren't as equipped to deal with demons, ghosts, and ghouls as they are. So, usually they will put the scared civilian in a room and do something special to the doors and windows to keep them as safe as possible.

Question 6

How do you reveal the true form of a Wraith?

Like many other supernatural creatures, a Wraith has the ability to disguise itself so that it looks like a normal human. This makes it easier for it to hunt, find prey, and not be caught or draw attention to itself. When it's time to attack its prey, it uses a spike in its wrist to extract brain fluid from a human which is what it feeds on. Ew! If a hunter wants to see the true form of a Wraith, it only needs to do one thing. What is it?

Question 7

What kind of Angel is Castiel?

According to Ash, God was missing from Heaven for some period of time and in his absence, Angels were tasked with managing Heaven and the souls within it. One of these Angels is a main character who Supernatural fans know and love named Castiel. In Supernatural, Angels have a hierarchy of different positions and classes of Angel. Castiel was introduced as just a regular Angel, but he has since been promoted to a different class. Which of these Angel sub-classes is he now?

Question 8

Where do ghosts go when they die?

Although a lot of creatures in Supernatural live on Earth and roam around with humans with no problem, there are some that live other places like on other spiritual and supernatural planes of existence. This means that they're only on Earth with other humans when they choose to leave that plane to come interact with humans, whatever their reason for doing that may be. Some of these locations in Supernatural include Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory. Do ghosts reside in one of these or do they stay on Earth?

Question 9

Where are the leviathan from?

The leviathan arc is kind of crazy, even compared to a lot of the other things the Winchester boys have been through. For one thing, they lose Bobby Singer, who has been like a father to them since they lost theirs. They also meet Charlie, who proves to be a great ally and has her own amazing adventures in Oz (crazy right?). But, in the end, it was them who unleashed all that evil onto the world. Do you remember where they came from?

Question 10

What kind of creature was the imaginary friend in the episode Playthings?

Plenty of kids have imaginary friends, right? It's not that weird! Unless, of course, you're in a horror movie or an episode of Supernatural because that probably means that this imaginary friend is up to something and is definitely not the fun, harmless kind that most kids have when they're growing up. Yikes! In the episode Playthings, Sam and Dean go to Connecticut to investigate two strange deaths in the town and find a young girl with an imaginary friend who might be responsible.

Question 11

Is there a cure for werewolves?

There isn't a cure for every creature that appears in Supernatural, but there are for some of them. For instance, there is a cure for vampirism, but the person who it's given to needs to have never fed on someone's blood before in order for it to work, which means that the vampire has to be caught relatively early into their change. Curing a supernatural creature can be dangerous even with a cure. Is there a known cure for werewolves?

Question 12

What type of creatures is the Woman in White?

In Mexican folklore, La Llorna, which translates to "The Weeping Woman," is a creature who lost her children and is desperately trying to find them. According to legends, she was a woman who drowned herself after finding out that her children were dead and wasn't allowed into heaven until she found them. Now, she's often found by rivers mourning the loss of her children and legend says she either marks people who see her for death or kidnap children who come too close. Yikes! On Supernatural, what kind of creature is she?

Question 13

What real-life serial killer's ghost made an appearance in the episode No Exit?

This serial killer was born in 1861 in New Hampshire and confessed to 27 murders and while people claim that he was responsible for the murders of up to 200 people, only 9 people could actually be tied to him. In the episode No Exit, Sam and Dean investigate the brutal murders of several blond women who all live in the same apartment building. Through their investigation, they discover that the culprit was the ghost of this serial killer. Who is it?

Question 14

What kind of creature is Jack?

Jack was introduced in season 12 as the child of Lucifer and the aide of President Jefferson Rooney, Kelly Kline. Several miles away inside the Men of Letters Bunker, Castiel could sense the conception of this child and immediately realized that he needed to work with Sam and Dean in order to get rid of him as he's the spawn of Lucifer. Although they were able to banish Lucifer from the Earth, Jack was still born. What species of supernatural creature is he?

Question 15

What is the name of the seal Sam and Dean use to keep demons at bay?

There is a whole lot of arcane, dark arts type of lore to Supernatural. Dean and Sam both have a tattoo that protects them from being possessed. Dean eventually gets the mark of Cain. Prophets have the ability to read the speech of God, which is illegible to anybody else. But the thing the Winchesters use most often is a large symbol, usually places somewhere hidden in order to trick demons into being stuck. Do you remember what it's called?

Question 16

How can you cure a Nachzehrer?

The Nachzehrer typically stays pretty lowkey and away from humans which means that hunters don't have very much contact or experience with them, but they have been seen and mentioned a couple times during the series. These creatures seem to either feed on the flesh of the dead or the blood of the living and live together in packs. These creatures were studied by the men of letters who also knew of a way to cure them. Do you remember how?

Question 17

Which of these is not one of the Changelings' powers?

With black, terrifying eyes and a mouth full of way too many teeth, Changelings are one of the scariest monsters to come out of the Supernatural world. If we were working with the Winchester brothers, we would not want to run into one of these! Changelings are the replacement for children that were stolen away by monsters and while they have a lot of different superpowers that make them hard to deal with, one of these is not one that they possess.

Question 18

Which of the following is a weakness of the Kitsune?

In Japanese folklore, a Kitsune is a type of fox that is mischievous and can either be malevolent or benevolent depending on the individual Kitsune that is being dealt with. Japanese folklore says that Kitsune souls were harvested and put in shrines around Japan and that the soulless Kitsunes became weak without their souls and eventually evolved into what we know now as foxes. On the show Supernatural, Kitsunes appear in in two different episodes and are mentioned in a few more. Do you know their weakness?

Question 19

What did people infected with the Croatoan Virus turn into?

A lot of episodes of Supernatural are inspired by real life events, at least somewhat. One of them is Croatoan, an episode that was inspired by the Roanoake Colony in Virginia that disappeared when the first settlers came to what is now The United States. People who came looking for them saw the word "Croatoan" written nearby, but no other hints as to where they went. In Supernatural, there was a disease called Croatoan Virus that turned people into what kind of creature?

Question 20

What are djinn more popularly known as?

The Djinn, also known as Jin, are a race supernatural creature that live in caves away from other people and creatures and have special powers that can be pretty dangerous and scary to humans. Their main power is that they have the ability to cause humans to hallucinate! Yikes! According to myths about Djinn, they're able to read a human's mind to learn their deepest wishes and then cause the person to hallucinate and imagine it. What do we call them?

Question 21

What does the Shtriga feed on?

Sometime before the show began, Sam and Dean had encountered a Shtriga. This creature had been coming to life to kill children every 15 to 20 years for over a hundred years in the Wisconsin area. When their father went hunting one, something horrible happened and Dean walked outside to see one trying to feed on Sam. Luckily, Dean saved his brother by shooting it before it could do any irreparable damage to Sam. What part of a child does a Shtriga eat?

Question 22

What does a Rugaru eat?

While a lot of supernatural creatures that we see on the show are totally aware of what they are from the second they're born or turned, a Rugaru isn't actually aware of being a Rugaru for most of their life. Being a Rugaru is passed down genetically and the person isn't aware until they get a drastically increased appetite and a craving for a certain item. When they eventually give in and eat it, they turn into a full Rugaru. What is it that they crave?

Question 23

Which of these hasn't been a color of demon eye?

This question should be a gimme for anybody who has ever seen the show. Demons as well as angels possess human vessels. Their true forms are sort of smokey and ethereal, so they need us humans in order to walk the Earth and do their damage. That applies to both, by the way! So far, we've seen a few types of demon, some with special colors to denote rank and power. Which of these eye colors hasn't been seen yet on the show?

Question 24

What part of the Hook Man did Sam and Dean need to destroy?

Like other episodes of Supernatural, such as Bloody Mary, the episode that featured the Hook Man is based on a legend that became popular sometime during the 1950s. The basic idea of the legend involves a young couple in their car, alone after a date when they hear about a serial killer that escaped a nearby prison who has a hook for one of his hands. We're sure you can see where this is going and why the urban legend terrifies people, right? What part of the Hook Man did Sam and Dean destroy to stop him?

Question 25

Which of these is the only weakness of a Rawhead?

A Rawhead is a haggard-looking, hairy creature that looks almost human with tough, leathery skin and claws for hands and feet. Ew! Talk about creepy. In season one of Supernatural, Sam and Dean are hunting a Rawhead when one ambushes them. These creatures have super strength and super speed which makes them hard to catch or kill, but there is one thing that they're vulnerable to and it's what Sam and Dean use to kill the one they were after in that episode. What is it?

Question 26

Which of the follow is not a weakness of the Jefferson Starships?

When Dean Winchester got a chance to name a whole new species of monsters, who was shocked that he chose to name them after a 1970s rock band like Jefferson Starship? Not us! These monsters were created by Eve and are a hybrid of two different monsters, a vampire and a wraith, and possess the ability to shapeshift into different human forms. Yikes! These powerful monsters are too scary for us. Luckily, they do have a few weaknesses, but one of them is not one of them. Which is it?

Question 27

What happens to a Phoenix when it touches iron?

In season six of Supernatural, Sam and Dean traveled back in time to 1861 for an episode involving a Phoenix. As they arrived, the Phoenix that they had traveled back in time for was being hanged and "died" but swore that he would be back to get revenge on the people who convicted him and sentenced him to death. While they were there, they had to hunt the Phoenix in order to try to get its ashes. What did they witness happen to it when it came in contact with iron?

Question 28

Which of the following is not one of the powers of a Vetala?

Vetala appear to be humans until they choose to attack someone. Then, they reveal their sharp teeth and reptilian eyes but unfortunately, the person who sees them gets killed before they can really rush off to tell anyone about it. As humans,t hey're typically beautiful as a way to lure in their victims. Talk about creepy! In order to kill a Vetala, one has to use a silver knife to stab them through the heart and twist it until their body crumbles.

Question 29

What kind of metal can stop a Skinwalker?

Skinwalkers are somewhat related to werewolves, another species on Supernatural that fans are pretty familiar with, due to the fact that they have some similar characteristics. They feed on human hearts, shapeshift to take the form of an animal, and biting a human will transform them into one of them. The main difference is that skinwalkers transform completely into an animal rather than being an animal-human hybrid like a werewolf and they don't only transform at the full moon. What kind of metal kills a Skinwalker?

Question 30

What kind of creature was Emma of the Isles?

This one might be tricky for some casual Supernatural fans since this character wasn't actually in the TV show. Instead, she appeared in one of the prequel comic books that was released in 2011 and shows a part of the Winchester brothers' lives before the show started. Emma of the Isles is a hunter from one of these comics who worked with Sam when he moved to the United Kingdom at some point before the show started. Do you know what species she is?
