So how do you tell the difference between a haunt and a plain old run of bad luck? That’s one of the questions that’s plagued hunters from the beginning. Sometimes all you have to go on is your gut instinct, and sometimes you make decisions that get people killed. Number one on the hunter’s list of priorities is wasting evil, but number 1A is making sure that what you’re about to waste really is evil. You look into the abyss, Nietzsche said, and the abyss looks back. And some of them have let hunting turn them into the kind of monster they spend their lives trying to snuff. And some of them have helped us along the way, like Jo and Ellen Harvelle. Some of them taught our dad the ropes: Daniel Elkins, Bobby Singer-good people. People who have dedicated their lives to keeping you safe from things you didn’t know existed and wouldn’t want to believe in if you did. You might not see them, or recognize their work, but there are other hunters out there. We’re out to get that Yellow-Eyed Son of a Bitch, and we’re taking down every evil thing we run across along the way. Cut a deal with the same demonic bastard that killed our mother and killed Jessica. Then, last year, the family business was cut back down to two. The murder of his girlfriend Jessica-in exactly the way our mother was murdered-put an end to that dream, and he rejoined the firm of Winchester and Sons. Neither one of us has ever held an honest job, except for Sam briefly while he was off deluding himself that he could lead a normal life. You might say we’ve both grown up in the family business. Sam was six months old when a demon killed our mother. We’ve been in this line of work all our lives. In a nutshell? We track down monsters, and then we blow the suckers away. Dispatchers of spirits, scourges of the undead and unnatural, feared by demons and shapeshifters andīoogeymen of all shapes and sizes. newish winchester sayingĪm and Dean Winchester, at your service. old irish sayingĪnd when the good Lord won’t, we will.
