Updated again:



This time we have:

• Latin Translations of exorcisms, blessings and inscriptions.


• Symbol Decoding of Dean's Amulet, the use of Salt, the name 'Winchester', the Colt, and more


• Demonology surrounding the show's grand narrative arc


• Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey and how it applies


• The first of the transcriptions from the Pad of Definitions

Coming soon, by request; or: can you help with...?:

• Music used and referenced in the show.


• Pop culture references (maybe? If there turns out to be another 5-or-6 hours in the day)


• Laundry list, on its way


• Still working on securing episode transcripts. If you can help me out, please let me know.


• Screencaps and decoding of screenshots taken of the journal in the show.

I say again: this is a giant work in progress, and a collective effort (I like to think). If you have any material you think should be here, please point me to it :) If you want to help out with anything, please stick your hand up :)

Also, me brains are about to leak out me ear 'oles.


After all this goddamn work, I would particularly like to direct all fanfiction authors to the entries on Salt and Demonology. SRSLY, GUYS. A little research won't kill you, and I've made it so easy for you to make me so happy.

I totally just randomly had in my head the line, "Shall I describe it to you, or would you like me to find you a box?" And it was in Orlando Bloom's voice, of course, and because it was just so totally random I was totally thrown and left thinking "buh? when did Will Turner say that?" and then I thought, maybe in Tortuga?

Which is all kinds of wrong, and not-Disney. Not Disney at all.

So of course then I remembered Helm's Deep, and blah blah blah, it all came rushing back to me. Not nearly as exciting.
