Any show that has been running for as long as Supernatural has, includes its fair share of bad guys. The show, which first aired in September of 2005, is still running. The show is now on its 13th season. The central characters of the show are a pair of demon hunting brothers—Dean and Sam Winchester. The brothers drive around the country fighting evil of all shapes and sizes-- from ghosts to vampires. Some of the villains only lasted an episode, while some are more pervasive-- with their storylines stretching out over whole season, or even multiple ones! With all of this, it can be more than a little difficult for even the most serious fans to keep track of which villains are still in the story, which villains have faded into the background but may resurface, and which villains are down for the count.
Supernatural stands out from other shows for a number of specials reasons though, and one is the commitment of its fan base. There really are no fans like supernatural fans, and if anyone can keep all of the plot points of such a complicated show down it’s them. This quiz is designed for the truest of true fans, the diehards who have been following the show since day one, and know every plot point and conspiracy theory.
