Supernatural has truly been firing on all cylinders throughout its third season, with the mythology becoming more intriguing than ever with each passing episode. When we last saw the Winchester brothers in action, Dean (Jensen Ackles) had recently learned the terrifying news that he may become a demon after Hell claims his soul. The boys also found out about a new demon leader named Lilith, who is bound to cause a lot of trouble for a creature that looks like an innocent little girl.
The final four episodes of Supernatural’s third season won’t begin airing on the CW until April 24. To tide fans over until then, we have some exciting spoilers that reveal what crazy dangers the Winchesters will face when the series returns.
Episode 3.13 - “Ghostfacers” - Airing April 24
The Winchesters reunite with the wannabe hunters from season 1’s “Hell House” in this lighthearted episode. This installment was filmed in a documentary style and will play out like the actual pilot episode of the Ghostfacers! TV show. It’s completely self-enclosed and breezes past all of the mythology set up in “Jus in Bello.”
Episode 3.14 - “Long-Distance Caller” - Airing May 1
Supernatural will return to its normal structure in this episode, which finds Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean visiting a town haunted by phone calls from dead loved ones. The demon behind the hauntings is a crocotta, which is a creature whose goal is to get people to kill themselves so it can steal their souls. To force people into suicide, the crocotta communicates via telephone or computer.
Dean will also get some information about the demon holding the contract on his soul, though it will come from an unlikely source.
Episode 3.15 - Airing May 8
This episode will introduce a new demon hunter into the mix. Creator Eric Kripke also says, “We’re gonna charge full-steam into Dean’s deal with the devil, because his soul is coming up due.”
Jared Padalecki adds, “Sam is trying new and different methods to try and save Dean. In the third episode I think we have a week left of Dean’s life, and we’re sprinting to the finish line to beat this deal that’s closing in.”
Episode 3.16 - Airing May 15
The season finale takes place on Dean’s last day, and includes a huge season-ending shocker regarding his fate. According to Michael Ausiello at TV Guide, there are four questions fans should be asking: Will Dean die? Will Dean go to Hell? Will Sam turn dark? Will Sam fight against Dean?
The answer to two of these questions is yes.
Season 3 will also feature a lot more of Lilith, but one thing it won’t include is a hookup between Dean and Bela (Lauren Cohan). According to Kripke, “They hate each other too much. If anything, Bela becomes more antagonistic.”
