Supernatural is a television series, which is liked by people who have an interest in occult and folklore. As season 5 of the popular series has just ended, people are eagerly waiting for the Supernatural season 6. The concept of two brothers hunting monsters and devils is quite appealing to the audience.
The brothers have also hunted vampires, but whether the show is based on reality or is completely fictitious is a frequently asked question. This article will discuss various episodes of the series and compare them with real life situations.
In the pilot episode, Dean and Sam investigate the case of a woman in white. The so-called woman came to know that her husband was unfaithful. She killed her children and later committed suicide. After death, she started appearing as a ghost, in white flowing robes and haunted and killed unfaithful men. Such stories have made people crave to watch Supernatural season 6.
The plotline of this episode has actually been taken from an authentic folklore, which has its origin in Mexico. In this tale, the ‘woman in white’ roams around in search of her dead children.
Another instance in the pilot episode shows that a woman justifies her wearing a pentagram for a silly reason of scaring her parents. But Sam tells her that a pentagram is actually very powerful and keeps the evil spirits away. This episode was so loved by people that now they want to get their hands on Supernatural season 6 for more such stories.
Sam is quite right about the pentagram, as it is actually a seal of Solomon or the shield of Solomon, which was found in 4000 BC. The pentagram is also effective in warding off evil spirits, if drawn upon a wall. At some point of time, the pentagram was the seal of Jerusalem. But later, in Europe, it was considered a symbol of magic and the devil.
Those who are eagerly waiting to watch Supernatural interludes of season 6, must have seen the episode named Wendigo. In this episode, as the brothers follow the tracks of their father, they come across a small town in Colorado, where they discover that several campers have disappeared into thin air. They later find out that Wendigo is the reason behind the disappearances.
The literal meaning of Wendigo is “evil that devours”. Certain hunters or frontiersmen are forced to devour human flesh, when they are left with no other options. After consuming human flesh, these Wendigo become all powerful, superhuman and immortal, succumbing to no weapons.
This episode is based on a North American lore, where there is a similar mention of a Wendigo.
It can be clearly seen that the creators of Supernatural have tried their best to relate the episodes to actual folklores. So, link to explore the neoteric essence instilled by the creators in the show
