How well do you know the monsters of the Supernatural universe? If you've been watching since the very beginning, you probably know a whole lot about how to deal with ghosts, ghouls, and all kinds of monsters - but can you remember what to do when faced with something that goes bump in the night? Some of these creatures are foes that Sam and Dean deal with all the time... ghosts and demons are just another Tuesday in the Winchester world, and even a casual fan of the show will probably know how to take 'em down. However, there are plenty of rarer monsters, creatures that only pop up for an episode or two, and that still have the same complex lore as all the rest...
If you were facing down a wendigo, for example, or up against a kitsune, would you know what to do? Or would you freeze, and start looking for rock salt shotgun shells because they are all you can think of? Take our quiz and figure out if your knowledge of Supernatural monster lore is enough to earn you the badge of true hunter, a contender worthy of the Winchester boys... or if you might end up as monster fodder if you ever came face to face with one. Maybe you are a hunter in training, but still with a way to go... or maybe you are secretly a monster yourself!
How would you kill a Wendigo?
The wendigo was one of the first monsters that Sam and Dean faced on the series, and they've come up against a few over the years. These cannibalistic creatures live in caves and mines - dark places in the woods where they can keep their victims and feed off of them... but how would you best kill one?
What would you need to take down Abaddon?
Abaddon isn't just any demon, but one of the nights of Hell - and the one who destroyed the original Men of Letters in the United States. As such, most of the weapons that would work on an average demon just have no effect on a demon this powerful... making her incredibly difficult to take down. How would you do it?
Which of these is useful against the most monsters?
While many monsters can only be taken down with a specific weapon, and would otherwise be immune - there are a few things that are useful against a wide range of creatures. If you were facing something and you didn't know the best way to kill it, what would you use?
Which of these cannot be killed by the Colt?
The Colt is one of the most powerful weapons in existence when it comes to killing monsters - and while the gun is rumored to be able to kill anything in existence, the Winchesters have discovered that there are one or two things that are immune to the magical weapon. Which of these cannot be killed by the Colt?
Who is the mother of all monsters?
Also known as the Mother of All, this powerful being was the first to create the monsters of the world. She created the Alphas, the first of each major race of monsters, and when she was released from Purgatory, she continued to attempt to create new monsters - but what was the name that she used?
What will be revealed if you cut a dragon in human form?
Dragons are definitely one of the rarest creatures in the Supernatural universe, and plenty of hunters argue over whether or not they truly exist. Dragons are said to have many of the elements of the legends of enormous scaled beasts - including a penchant for virgins, gold, and caves. If you cut a dragon in human form, what would you see?
What is a Phoenix vulnerable to?
Another phenomenally rare monster in the Supernatural universe is the Phoenix - like the birds of myth, but (like so many others in this world) with the ability to take on human form. The Phoenix can burn a person to ash, just with a single touch - but they do have weaknesses. Which of these can hurt a Phoenix?
What did Dean name Eve's combo-monsters?
When Eve returned, Sam and Dean quickly discovered that she was back to her old tricks of creating monsters - and building something new, with the spikes of a wraith, the teeth of a vampire, and the ability to shapeshift. Dean decided to name them, saying that he chose the name because they were 'horrible and hard to kill'. What was that name?
What is a Djinn's power?
The Djinn is also occasionally known as the Genie - but these are not friendly creatures who will pop out of a magic lamp and grant wishes! Instead, they are creatures who will trap a human and live off their blood (or occasionally, their fear). What is the primary power that they use to keep their prey docile?
What do ghouls eat?
Ghouls are scavengers, and you are most likely to come across a ghoul in a graveyard, although they have been known to leave these places in order to hunt. They are also shapeshifters, and have been known to take the form of people, including their memories, allowing them to pass for human much of the time.
What would you look for if hunting a shapeshifter?
Shapeshifters are not an easy monster to hunt - because it's impossible to know what they look like! Even if you figure out that there is a shapeshifter around, they might change appearance at any time, leaving only a shed skin behind them... how would you tell which person was the shifter?
What would you use to kill a Rugaru?
Rugaru start out as normal humans, but once they hit maturity (around the age of 30), everything changes... these monsters then start to evolve into their true selves, becoming hungrier and hungrier, eventually finding that nothing satisfies them but human flesh - what would you use to kill a changed Rugaru?
Where might you run into an Okami?
While there are some monsters that you can find the world over, there are many others that can only be found in certain areas (like woods, or deserts), and others that are native to specific countries - although they have been known to travel. Where in the world would you find an Okami, toothy monsters who eat humans?
Which of these parts of vampire lore are false?
There is a lot of lore out there on Vampires - in fact, they are one of the best-known monsters in pop culture. However, a lot of this lore is contradictory, and much of it is false. True vampires (in this world) aren't all cape-wearing, white-faced Dracula-types... but which of these parts of the vamp legend is false?
What's the easiest way to take out a werewolf?
Like Vampires, there is a lot of pop culture lore on Werewolves - these half-human, half-wolf creatures that transform before heading out to kill humans and devour their hearts. There are several different ways to take out a werewolf, and even a possibility of curing a werewolf that is recently turned and hasn't fed - but which is the easiest?
Where do wraith's spikes come from?
Wraiths feed on the bodily fluids of humans, using a retractable spike in order to pierce the skin and extract brain fluid from the wraith's victims. They also infect the humans by raising their dopamine levels to the point that they become insane - meaning that many wraiths work in mental hospitals. Where do a wraith's spikes appear from?
How many Vetala usually hunt together?
Most monsters hunt humans - but the number of each creature during a hunt can vary from species to species. Some prefer to hunt solo, and will kill other monsters near them, others prefer to hunt in small groups or in large packs. How do the snake-like Vetala like to hunt their prey?
Why should you avoid being intimate with an Amazon?
This half-human race was created by the ancient gods, and for the most part, live fairly peacefully - not using their super-strength or powers to harm humans.

How would you sense a ghost's presence?

How would you kill an Arachne?
For people who already have a fear of spiders, the Arachne is probably one of the most terrifying monsters in the Supernatural universe - being a combination of the traditional monster, and a giant spider! They even spin super-strong webs to trap their prey... but how can you kill one?
Which country's folklore are Banshees from?
Banshees, like many other monsters, like to feed on the delicious, delicious brains of humans - and they get to their food using a piercing scream. Their scream drives their victim so insane that they will bash open their own skulls to make the sound stop... but where are Banshees from?
Which of these won't help you against a ghost?

How would you tell if a child was a changeling?
Changelings are yet another example of a monster that feeds on humans, and that can appear as human while stalking their prey.

How would a human notice that their child was a Changeling?
How would you kill a Crocotta?
Crocotta are creatures that feed on the souls of humans, rather than their flesh... but they still need the human to die in order to eat.

Killing a Crocotta requires stabbing in a particular spot - where is it?
What do elves love to drink?
Sam and Dean were certainly surprised when they discovered that fairies, including elves, Leprechauns and gnomes, also exist in the world. Among the lore that they learned about elves, they discovered that these small fairies love to drink a specific liquid, and that it makes them highly intoxicated. What is it?
Who is the king of the Fairies?
After discovering that fairies exist, Sam and Dean have learned quite a bit about them, and about the fairy realm, Avalon. Knowing how to cope with these beings can certainly come in handy as a hunter - but if you were dragged to Avalon to stand trial in front of the King of the Fairies, who would you meet?
What do kitsunes feed on?
Kitsunes are creatures similar to werewolves, but with a similarity to foxes instead of wolves. They are also killed in a different way - instead of silver bullets, kitsunes are killed with a knife to the heart. They also feed slightly differently to werewolves, eating a different part of the body - what is it?
Which of these could you not use against a leprechaun?
Leprechauns are another type of fairy, and have many of the same powers and traits as other races from the fairy kingdom.

Where are the pishtaco native to?
These parasitic creatures aren't native to the United States, but because they can pose as humans, some have arrived here.

What alternative means might kill a siren?
Sirens are a far cry from the mermaids of common legends - although they do still drive their victims to madness with the force of their love.

However, Sam and Dean have killed a siren using what alternative method?
What is the real name of an imaginary friend?
Not all creatures that Sam and Dean deal with are what we would consider monsters - some are much friendlier supernatural beings.

How would you trap or kill a Soul Eater?
While most of the creatures that Sam and Dean encounter come from our own world, there are some that come from other realms (including Oz and Avalon). The Soul Eaters are one such creature, who lives in a pocket dimension, and comes through to drag away the souls of humans. How would you trap or kill a Soul Eater?
How would you kill a Leviathan?
These ancient beasts were some of the earliest of God's creations, and while they can appear as humans, they reveal themselves through their gaping, toothy mouths.

How could you see a Hellhound?
The Hellhounds are huge, dog like creatures controlled by demons - especially crossroads demons looking to collect the souls that were sold to them.
