Check out the new and upcoming Supernatural books! Also, did you know there was an official role playing game? Now you can really LARP with the best of them! Hey, maybe one day Sam and Dean will really show up too...



From Titan Books:


A Supernatural novel that reveals a previously unseen adventure for the Winchester brothers, from the hit CW series!

Twenty-seven years ago, Sam and Dean Winchester lost their mother to a mysterious and demonic supernatural force. In the years after, their father, John, taught them about the paranormal evil that lives in the dark corners and on the back roads of America... and he taught them how to kill it.

When renegade angel Castiel alerts Sam and Dean to a series of particularly brutal killings in San Francisco’s Chinatown, they realize the Heart of the Dragon is back. John Winchester faced the terrifying spirit 20 years ago, and the Campbell family fought it 40 years ago - can the boys succeed where their parents and grandparents failed?

A brand-new Supernatural novel that reveals a previously unseen adventure for the Winchester brothers, from the hit CW series!

Sam and Dean drive all night to what they think is an emergency from Chuck. When they get there, they find an odd number of Impalas outside the place, and Becky. There was no emergency. Becky the crazed fan stole Chuck’s cellphone to text Sam and Dean so that they could be there for the first official Supernatural convention. That’s right, Sam and Dean have to endure a real case involving evil ghost children, as tons of other Sam and Deans walk around pretending to be them trying to solve a fake case that the convention people have set up. One pair of Sam and Dean Larpers (Live-action role players) in particular drive Dean crazy, and when they have to team up with them to find the corpses, Dean finally breaks. He hears the larpers pretending to be him and Sam and interrupts them, insisting that this isn’t some sort of game, that Sam and Dean don’t like to be played like that. The fans argue that they don’t think Sam and Dean care, because, uh, they’re not real. Dean argues that they do care. They care a lot. As he stocks off, Sam is left to try and explain that, “Uh, yeah. He takes the story very seriously.”

Meanwhile, Chuck has to keep everyone busy in the conference room so Sam and Dean and larping Sam and Dean can go burn the bones. He answers random fan questions, and when some people decide this is just way too boring and get up and open the door, the ghostly child killers are there to greet them. Chuck rushes to close and re-salt the door, and Becky who was still staring lovesick at Sam this whole time, suddenly sees Chuck I new light. She hopes Sam can live with the fact that they weren’t meant to be together. Sam says he’ll do his best.

After having been helped in burning the bodies with the fake Sam and Dean, Dean thanks them, tells them he’s the real Dean, and they just laugh. Sure, “Dean”. They remind him that he has an awesome job where he gets to help people, and Dean leaves feeling possibly not so bad about himself after all.



Becky: I love it when they talk at the same time!

~*~*~

Becky: Sam! Wait! One more thing! In chapter 33 of Supernatural, ‘Time Is On My Side’, there was that girl Bela, she was British, and a cat burglar?

Sam: Yeah, I – I know.

Becky: She stole the Colt from you, and then she ‘said’ she gave it to Lilith, remember?

Sam: Yeah.

Becky: Well you know she lied, right? She never really gave it to Lilith?

Sam: Wait what?

Becky: Didn’t you read the book? There was this one scene where Bela gives the Colt to a demon named Crowley, Lilith’s right hand man. I think her lover, too.

Sam: Crowley. It didn’t occur to you to tell us this before?

Chuck: I’m sorry, I didn’t remember. I’m not as big of a fan as she is.

Sam: Becky? Tell me everything.

~*~*~

Dean: Great, we've got a real ghost, and bunch of dudes pretending to be us poking at it.

~*~*~

Sam: (reading LARP leaflet) Dad’s Journal. Dear Sam and Dean, this hotel is haunted. You must haunt down the ghost. Interview witnesses, discover clues, and find the bones. First team to do so wins a fifty-dollar gift card to Sizzler. Love Dad.

(Dean rolls his eyes)

Becky: You guys are so gonna win!

~*~*~

Convention Head
: Welcome to the first annual Supernatural convention. Uh, at 3:45 in the Magnolia Room we have the panel "Frightened Little Boy to Secret Life of Dean." And at 4:30, there's the "Homoerotic Subtext of Supernatural." And of course, the big hunt starts at 7 p.m. sharp.

~*~*~

Hotel Manager: A lot of this place is off-limits to nerds.

~*~*~

Chuck: Uh, okay, good. This isn’t nearly as awkward as I – uh, dry mouth (picks up a bottle of water, drinks) Okay. So I guess uh... questions?

Fan 1
: Hey, Mr. Edlund! Uh, big fan, wow... okay, I was just wondering. Where’d you come up with Sam and Dean in the first place?

Chuck: Oh uh... (Dean and Sam tilt their heads curiously). It just... came to me. Okay, the hook man.

Fan 2: Okay, so why in every fight scene, Sam and Dean are having their gun or knife knocked away by the bad guy? Why don’t they keep it on some kind of bungee?

Chuck: Uh, I really don’t know.

Fan 2: Yeah, follow up – why can’t Sam and Dean be telling that Ruby is evil? I mean she is clearly manipulating Sam in some kind of moral lapse. It’s obvious, right?

Becky: Hey! If you don’t like the books, don’t read ‘em, fritz!

Chuck: Okay, okay, just uh... It’s okay. It’s okay. Okay, next question.

Fan 3: Yeah okay, so at the end of the last book, Dean goes to hell, so, what happens next?

Chuck: Oh. There lies an announcement, actually. Um, you’re all gonna find out. Um, thanks to a wealthy Scandinavian investor, we’re gonna start publishing again!

(Sam and Dean look at each other)

~*~*~

Larper: Yeah, how original. Supernatural bringing in more creepy children!

~*~*~

Chuck: Like all authors I started writing because of love. I had a huge crush on Nancy McKeon who played Jo in The Facts of Life. I must have written her forty to fifty letters. She never wrote back.

~*~*~

Chuck: So what does the future hold for Sam and Dean? Well, uh, how do you feel about angels? Yeah. you know, because let me tell you, they're not nearly as lame as you think.

~*~*~

Chuck: Uh, no, there's really no such thing as a Croatoan Virus for... down there. You really should see a doctor.

~*~*~

Fake Dean/ Damien: If all these people are really in trouble, we gotta do something.

Dean: Why?

Fake Dean/ Damien: 'Cause that's what Sam and Dean would do.

~*~*~

Dean: Alright, you know what? That’s it. (Larpers to look at him) That is it!

Fake Dean/ Damien: What’s wrong Bobby?

Dean: I’m not Bobby, ‘kay? You’re not Sam, you’re not Dean. What is wrong with you? Why in the hell would you choose to be these guys?

Fake Sam/ Barnes: Because we’re fans. Like you.

Dean: No, I am not a fan. Okay? Not fans! In fact, I think that the Dean and Sam story sucks! It is not fun, it’s not entertaining, it’s a river of crap that would send most people howling to the nuthouse! So you listen to me. Their pain is not for your amusement! I mean, you think they enjoy being treated like circus freaks?

Fake Dean/ Damien: Uh, I don’t think they care. Because they’re fictional characters.

Dean: Oh they care. Believe me. They care a lot. (pushes past the two guys and keeps walking. They stare at Sam questioningly)

Sam: Uh, yeah. He takes the story very seriously.

~*~*~

Dean: (to Sam) Just give her the puppy dog thing, OK?

~*~*~

Becky: Look Sam. I’m not gonna lie. We had undeniable chemistry. But like a monkey on the sun, it was too hot to live. (Sam blinks). It can’t go on. Chuck and I... we found each other. My Yin to his proud Yang. And well, the heart wants what the heart wants. I am so, so sorry.

Chuck: Yeah Sam. You know, sorry.

(Sam nods)

Becky: Will you be alright?

Sam: (sighs) Honestly, I don’t know. I’ll just have to find a way to... keep living. I guess.

Becky: God bless you!

~*~*~

Dean: Hey, Chuck, good luck with your books, and screw you very much. (Sam and Dean walk away).

Convention Head: Fans of yours?

Chuck: I'd say no.

~*~*~

Sam: Oh, hey, Chuck, look. If you really want to publish more books, I guess that's okay with us.

Chuck: Wow. Really?

Sam: No, not really. We have guns and we will find you.

Supernatural: Changing Channels

March 4th 2010 19:01










The Trickster lands Sam and Dean in TV land, where they're forced to "play the game". What game? Their roles. As long as they go with whatever show they're in--be it a Grey's Anatomy spoof where Sam has to preform a surgery on his brother, a Japanese Game show where Dean suddenly speaks Japanese, or one of those awful procedural dramas where they have to wear sunglasses at night. Cas pops in every once in a while to try and get them out, but The Trickster keeps sending him away. When The Trickster shows up in a sitcom that seems to go on forever, he finally tells them that this is more than just to annoy them. He wants them to play their roles in life--as in "Dean as Michael. Sam as Lucifer." Both boys refuse, and he tells them that they're going to be trapped in TV land forever then. He blinks out, and as they're whisked away to the CSI spoof (which Dean really hates), they try and take out The Trickster with a wooden stake. It appears to work, but when Dean exits the warehouse they'd been in the whole time, he can't find Sam. When he gets in his car to call his brother, Sam's voice answers him, but neither of them know where he is. Sam suddenly realizes that he doesn't think they killed The Trickster. Why? Because he's now the Impala. They drive around until they come up with another play, Dean steps out, shouts that they're ready to deal, and The Trickster shows up. Dean orders him to turn Sam back to normal before they go on, and they trap The Trickster with holy oil. That's right, they realized when they saw him talk to Cas--The Trickster isn't a Trickster at all. He's an angel. Gabriel to be exact. Gabriel is fed up with the whole Apocalypse thing already, the fighting between his brothers, and regardless of which side wins, just wants it to be OVER. He tells Sam and Dean that they can try and fight it all they want, but it's in their blood, their destiny. Whether they like it or not, he says they'll say yes. The brothers get Cas back, Gabriel asks if they're just going to leave him in the burning holy oil for the rest of eternity, and Dean answers, "No. We're not. Because we don't srew with people the way you do. And for the record? This isn't about some prize fight between your brothers, or some destiny that can't be stopped. This is about you bein' too afraid to stand up to your family!" Turning with Sam and Cas to head out, Dean hits the lever for the fire sprinklers. "Don't say I never did anything for you!" Dean, Sam, and Cas walk outside to the Impala. Sometimes it'd be nice if life really was a tv show.



Sam : What are you watching?

Dean : Some kind of hospital show. "Dr. Sexy, M.D." It's based on a book.

Sam : [laughs] When did you hit menopause?

Dean : It's called channel surfing!

~*~*~

Dean : Just desserts. Sweet tooth. Screwin' with people before you kill 'em... We're dealin' with the Trickster aren't we?

Sam : Sure looks like.

Dean : Good. Been wantin' to gank that mother since Mystery Spot.

~*~*~

Dean : We're *in* "Dr. Sexy, M.D." Dude, what the hell?

Sam : I don't know.

Dean : Seriously, what the hell!

Sam : I don't know!

Dean : One theory, any theory!

Sam : Uh, the Trickster trapped us in TV Land.

Dean : That's your theory? That's stupid!

~*~*~

Sam : Dean, how can this possibly be real?

Dean : I don't know, all right! Oh, but there goes Dr. Wang, the sexy but arrogant heart surgeon. And there's Johnny Drake. Well, he's not even alive, he's a ghost in the mind of... of her. The sexy but neurotic doctor over there.

Sam : So... this show has ghosts? Why?

Dean : I don't know. It is compelling.

Sam : I thought you said you weren't a fan.

Dean : I'm not. I'm not! Oh boy...

Sam : What?

Dean : It's him.

Sam : Who?

Dean : It's him, it's Dr. Sexy!

~*~*~

Dean : (notices the doctor's shoes, slams him against the wall) You're not Dr. Sexy.

Dr. Sexy: You're crazy.

Dean : Really? Because I swore part of what makes Dr. Sexy sexy, is the fact that he wears cowboy boots. Not tennis shoes!

Sam : Yeah, you're not a fan...

Dean : It's a guilty pleasure!

~*~*~

(After Dean’s been shot in the Grey’s Anatomy spoof)

Dean : (lying face-down on the table) Sam! Do somethin', come on!

Sam : I don't know how to use any of this crap!

Dean : Figure it out! Sam! Come on, I'm waiting!

Sam : Okay, um, I need a... penknife, some dental floss, a sewing needle, and a fifth of whiskey! (Everyone just looks at him) Stat!

~*~*~

Game Show Host
: No no no no. Mr. Trickster does not like pretty-boy angels!

~*~*~

Dean : All right, you know what? I'm done with the monkey dance. 'Kay? We get it.

Trickster: Yeah? Get what, Hot Shot?

Dean : Playing our roles, right? That's your game?

Trickster: That's half the game.

Sam : What's the other half?

Trickster: Play your roles…OUT THERE.

Dean : What's that supposed to mean?

Trickster: Oh you know! Sam, starring as Lucifer! Dean, starring as Michael! You're Celebrity Deathmatch! Play your roles!

~*~*~

Sam : We need to talk to you. We need your help.

Trickster: Hmmm. Lemme guess. You two mutton-heads broke the world, and you want me to sweep up your mess.

~*~*~

Dean : Heaven or Hell, which side you on?

Trickster: I'm not on either side.

~*~*~

Sam : You gotta calm down.

Dean : Calm down? I am wearing SUNGLASSES at night! You know who does that? No-talent douchebags! I HATE this game! I hate that we're in a procedural cop show, and you want to know why? Because I HATE procedural cop shows! There's like three hundred of 'em on television, they're all the freakin' same, it's "ooh, a plane crashed here," oh shut up!

~*~*~

Dean : Sam? Where are you? (on his way out to the Impala, calling Sam) Sam, it's me. (gets in Impala) Where the hell did you go?

Sam : Dean?

(Dean looks around, the car is empty)

Dean : Sam? Where are you?

Sam : I don't know. (voice coming from the Knight Rider-like consule on the dashboard) Oh crap. I don't think we killed the Trickster.

~*~*~

(Dean rummages in Impala/Sam’s trunk)

Sam : Dean?

Dean : What?

Sam : That, uh, feels really... uncomfortable.

(Dean slams the trunk lid down)

Sam : Ow.

~*~*~

Sam : Should I honk?

~*~*~

Trickster: Wow. Sam, get a load of the rims on you.

Sam : Eat me.

Trickster: Okay, boys. Ready to go quietly?

Dean : Whoa, whoa, whoa, not so fast. Nobody's goin' anywhere until Sam has opposable thumbs.

~*~*~

Trickster: Where'd I screw up?

Sam : You didn't. Nobody gets the jump on Cas like you did.

Dean : Mostly it was the way you talked about Armageddon.

Trickster: Meaning?

Dean : Well, call it personal experience, but nobody gets that angry unless they're talkin' about their own family.

Sam: So which one are you? Grumpy, Sneezy or Douchey?

Trickster: Gabriel, okay? They call me Gabriel.

~*~*~

Dean : Okay, Gabriel. How does an Archangel become a trickster?

Trickster: My own, private, witness protection. I skipped outta Heaven, had a face transplant, carved out my own little corner of the world. 'Til you two screwed it all up.

Dean : And what'd Daddy say when you ran off and joined the pagans?

Trickster: Daddy doesn't say anything about anything.

Sam : Then what happened? Why'd you ditch?

Dean : Well do you blame him? I mean his brothers are heavy-weight douche-nozzles.

Trickster: Shut your cake-hole! You don't know anything about my family. I LOVED my father, and my brothers. Loved them! But watching them turn on each other? Tear at each other's throats? I couldn't bear it! Okay? So I left. And now it's happening all over again.

Sam : Then help us stop it!

Trickster: It can't be stopped!

Dean : You want to see the end of the world?

Trickster: I want it to be *over*! I have to sit back and watch my brothers kill each other, thanks to you two! Heaven, Hell, I don't care who wins! I just want it to be over!

Sam : It doesn't have to be like that! There has to be some way to, to pull the plug!

Trickster: (laughing) Oh-ho-ho-ho, you do NOT know my family. What you guys call the Apocalypse, I used to call Sunday dinner! That's why there's no stopping this. Because this isn't about a war, it's about two brothers who loved each other, and betrayed each other! You think you'd be able to relate!

Sam : What're you talkin' about?

Trickster: (looks from one brother to the other, whistles) You sorry sonsabitches. Why do you think you two are the vessels? Think about it! Michael, the big brother, loyal to an absent father. And Lucifer, the little brother, rebellious of Daddy's plan. You were born to this, boys. It's your destiny! It was ALWAYS you! As it is in Heaven, so it must be on Earth! One brother has to kill the other.

Dean : So what the hell are you saying?

Trickster: Why do you think I've always taken such an interest in you? Because from the moment Dad flipped on the lights around here, we knew it was all gonna end with you. Always.

Dean : No. That's not gonna happen.

Trickster: (sadly) I'm sorry. But it is. Guys. I wish this were a TV show. Easy answers, endings wrapped up in a bow. But this is real. And it's gonna end bloody for all of us. That's just how it's gotta be.

~*~*~

Trickster: So, boys, now what? Stare at each other for the rest of eternity?

Dean : Well first of all you're gonna bring Cas back from wherever you stashed him.

Trickster: Oh am I?

Dean : Yeah. Or we're going to dunk you in some holy oil, and deep-fry ourselves an archangel!
(Gabriel snaps his fingers and Cas appears, injured, but alive)

Dean : Cas, you okay?

Castiel: (glaring at the archangel) I'm fine. Hello Gabriel.

Trickster: Hey bro. How's the search for Daddy going? Let me guess: awful.

Dean : Okay, we're outta here. C'mon Sam.

Trickster: Uh... okay. Hey, guys? So, so what? Huh? You're just gonna, you're gonna leave me here forever?

Dean : No. We're not. Because we don't srew with people the way you do. And for the record? This isn't about some prize fight between your brothers, or some destiny that can't be stopped. This is about you bein' too afraid to stand up to your family!

Dean : (pulling the fire extinguisher lever, putting out the holy fire) Don't say I never did anything for you!

Supernatural gets a season 6! But...

February 19th 2010 05:14
The great news? The CW has renewed Supernatural for another season! The not so great news? Eric Kripke, the man behind it all, is stepping down.



From Ausiello over at EW:

'Supernatural' exclusive: Eric Kripke stepping down as showrunner

Aw, hell. I had a bad feeling Supernatural’s early season 6 renewal came with an asterisk.

Sources confirm to me exclusively that creator Eric Kripke will be stepping down as the CW drama’s day-to-day showrunner next season. Executive producer Sera Gamble, who has been with the show since season 1 and is awesome, is poised to succeed him.

But, and this is a big but, Kripke will remain actively involved in the show — and not just in name only. Although CW and Warner Bros. reps declined to comment, a Supernatural insider assures me that Kripke and his current co-showrunner, Robert Singer, will continue to function as hands-on executive producers.

“Eric and Bob will be working very closely with Sera,” says the source. “They are not abandoning the show.”

Kripke has long said that he envisioned Supernatural as a five-season show. But in an interview last August, he clarified that stance. “I’m looking at this season as the [last] chapter in this particular story,” he told me. “That doesn’t mean there can’t be a new story. Buffy did it. The X-Files did it. You close a chapter on a big mythology storyline and then you begin a new one.” Asked whether he would be involved in a possible sixth season, Kripke hedged, “I don’t know. I’m going to cross that bridge when I get to it.”

Kripke is said to be finalizing a new deal with Warner Bros. that will feature a big development component. In other words, his diminished role on Supernatural will free him up to create another awesome show.


When I first read the title of this article I got nervous, but as I read on I felt better. At least he's not abandoning the show, and I have faith that the cast and crew will deliver a Season 6 worthy of our Winchester brothers! Yay for another season of Sam and Dean! (And hopefully Cas and Bobby too!)
