Spoopynatural

I started this because I had to for a final but I’m gonna post random crap so enjoy 😂

[spookyynatural]

I’m torturing myself and watching season 15 again 🙄 but I have one thought: What was the fucking fascination with fucking vampires??? Like what the heck??? Episode 9 when Sam and Dean fucking BECAME vampires and then don’t even get me started on episode 20. Like wtf??? I’m upset

[spookyynatural]

My elderly aunt: “This guy speaks fluent Latin”

Me: “I know Latin”

Her: “Like what?”

Me:

[spookyynatural]

Okay but Dean’s line (“You really suck at goodbyes, you know that?”) in Swan Song hits different now..

[spookyynatural]

Rewatching season 5 makes me realize how much I miss Crowley..

[spookyynatural]

It started with Sam. Then it was Sam and Dean. Then Sam, Dean, and Cas.

The ending is just reversed.

It’s honestly beautiful to me.

[spookyynatural]

Kind of spoilers for 15x20 -

I don’t know what everyone’s problem is. I thought the episode ended beautifully. Yeah it was a little weird and not at all what any of us were expecting but they’re happy. They’re all happy. Why can’t we just let them be happy?

Like, yes my favorite character was the beautiful angel we all know and love, Castiel. Yes I ship Destiel. Yes I wanted Dean to verbally reciprocate or Cas not to die but we got what we got. Misha/Cas might not have been in the finale but he’s alive?? Bobby literally says Cas helped Jack 🤷🏻‍♀️ The writers gave us freedom to interpret the DeanCas story (I think they’re happy in heaven together even though it’s not explicitly stated because it makes me happy) but it started with just two brothers so why shouldn’t it end with two brothers?

Anyway, I don’t understand how people can hate on a show they’ve loved for so long just because they didn’t get the ending they wanted. I just don’t understand the negativity.. Sorry for the rant.

[spookyynatural]

Me *jokingly*: that looks pretty sharp. Glad he missed it

Later: *sobbing uncontrollably with pterodactyl noises*

[spookyynatural]

How is everyone today? I’ll start. I’m a hot mess of anxiety and sadness but also excited and hopeful?

Idk how tf I’m gonna say all this coherently but...

Everything about the supernatural finale plot line so far has been just one huge love letter to the fandom and death of the author.

When Chuck was revealed to be God but still the author of “the story”, he was still seen as a positive figure.

It didn’t matter that reality was essentially his story. It was only when he refused to let his “characters” be who they actually turned out to be instead of what he intended that there was a problem.

This is essentially the writers being self aware and recognizing that at a certain point, your story is not your own anymore. It grows and changes, has a mind of its own, and is influenced by the 1, 10, or 1,000’s of people who love it deeply. And they’re saying that that’s right. That’s how it should be.

Case and point, say it with me friends...

Castiel.

Cas was meant to be in a few episodes as sort of like a “Clarence” (no pun intended) figure then pitter off, and now he’s been a beloved part of the show for 12 years.

...how the fuck did that happen?

Because of us. if Chuck avatar-for-the-writers Shurley is anything to go off of, the writers 100% did not intend this, want us to know they did not intend this, and say “who tf cares, it’s amazing anyway”

Cas was never meant to fall in love with Dean (and hopefully vice versa, I just don’t want this to age terribly 😬), but so many of us saw ourselves in the way they acted around each other, a show intended as, let’s be honest, kind of a dude bro thing, gained thousands of lgbt fans, we loved these two so deeply for years, that he did anyway. Even if it started as an accident, they somehow fell in love purely because we saw it. And you know what the writers said?

That that’s what’s real. They may start off with different intentions, but our interpretation made it something entirely different, wonderful and true. A story isn’t an object to be carved in Stone like Chuck thinks, it’s a living, breathing entity that is driven and shaped by love, whoever loves it enough.

I read somewhere that the supernatural writers said something along the lines of “it’s certainly not a game of thrones ending” and I choose to take that very literally. The writers of game of thrones essentially ended up kissing their own asses by having this weird cop-out “storytellers are the greatest people ever and we owe everything to them”, and the ending of supernatural so far says wholeheartedly “fuck that.”

Storytellers can be stubborn, storytellers can be wrong, storytellers can think they know exactly how something should be and accidentally ruin it. When an author keeps their characters closely guarded and don’t allow them to organically become whatever they’ve come to mean to those the story is loved by, with or without them, it all falls apart.

The writers want us to know that we’ve made this show entirely different than intended over the years, and that it’s beautiful.

[spookyynatural]

This. I’m speechless 😭

[spookyynatural]

Cass is really gone and I’m torn..

[spookyynatural]

Happy birthday, Dean!

[spookyynatural]

So I recorded myself watching the first 10 minutes of 15x9. I don’t know why but here are just a few of my faces from the video. 😂

[spookyynatural]

Totally Random Story from Today (1/13/2020)

So I went to my first Video Production class today and I had no idea who the professor was going to be. Imagine my surprise when I walk in and see that my new professor looks a whole lot like Asmodaeus.

So all throughout class I’m referring to him in my mind as Professor Asmodaeus. Then he starts talking about different audiences who might view our work and why they view it. He mentions reasons like entertainment and information. He then gives the example of airline safety videos and my brain goes straight to Misha’s TSA America video and I almost burst into laughter right in the middle of class. 😂

If you haven’t seen the video, I’ve linked it below. I highly recommend watching it. However, do not watch it in public because you might get judged for how loud you laugh. Or you can watch it in public if you have no cares in the world. I just know that I laugh every single time and everyone should be able to enjoy it!

This was so random and I didn’t know where else to share. I hope y’all enjoyed!

[spookyynatural]

Update: I had my friend watch the video for the first time! 😂

[spookyynatural]

Yet another update: I have a professor named Crowley. I’m truly blessed 😂

[spookyynatural]

That episode though... I’m not crying, you are 😭

[spookyynatural]

“Time After Time” (s7, ep12)

Eliot Ness is a name you hear a lot of if you’re as interested in true crime as I am. Ness is most well known for his leadership of The Untouchables and his efforts to bring down Al Capone. For a full biography, click here

Though Ness is most known for his work with Al Capone, he is also known for cleaning up Cleveland, Ohio in the 30s. This fact ties in to this episode of Supernatural. In this episode of Supernatural, the boys deal with a time traveler. Not just any time traveler, but the god of time himself, Chronos.

Sheriff Jody Mills gives the boys a tip about a case in Ohio where people were turning up mummified. They investigate further and find where the suspect lives. They follow him and Dean tackles him, transporting him to 1944 where he is arrested and interrogated by the one and only Eliot Ness who is also a hunter.

They investigate the case on both ends to see what they are facing. They pull a “Back to the Future III” in which Dean places a note in the wall. This allows Sam to know the date and time Dean has his hands on Chronos so he can summon him. In the end, Dean gets back to his time and they kill Chronos.

This was a really cool episode and I loved the fact they brought true crime into my favorite TV show.

“Hook Man” (s1, ep7)

The legend of the Hook Man is well known. There are many versions of the story, but the writers of this episode went the more gruesome route. Let’s dive in to the legend of The Hook Man.

The Hook Man legend began in the 1950s as a tactic to keep teenagers from doing bad things. It begins with a new couple going out to Lovers’ Lane. They turn the radio on to set the mood. As they’re making out, they hear breaking news that a murderer with a hook hand has escaped. The girl is frightened and tells the boy to take her home. Frustrated, the boy drives off quickly. When they arrive home, the boy gets out to open her door and sees a hook in the door. Had the girl not asked to go home, they both would have died.

Supernatural’s version of this legend has a more gruesome ending. It starts out the same, a boy and girl go to a secluded spot and start necking. Instead of a story on the radio, they hear scraping outside. The boy, Rich, decides to investigate, leaving Lori alone. There is commotion on the roof of the car and Lori decides to make a run for it. She happens to turn around, only to see Rich suspended upside down, dead.

The writers of this episode added another urban legend in as well: Aren’ t You Glad You Didn’t Turn on The Lights?, also known as The Roommate’s Death. 

The source of the killings turned out to be a former preacher in the town, Jacob Karns. Karns was arrested for the murder of 13 prostitutes in 1862. He had a hook for a hand that was given to the church and made into a necklace that was given to Lori. His spirit latched onto Lori’s desire for morality. The episode ends with the boys defeating Karns and skipping town.

I liked the way the writers combined the two legends and made it into one. The legend of the Hook Man will always be one of my favorites.
