If you’ve ever thrown salt at a window, quoted “Driver picks the music, shotgun shuts his cakehole,” or cried during “Carry On Wayward Son,” you know Supernatural is more than just a show about hunting monsters—it’s a 15-season epic about family, sacrifice, and two brothers saving the world more times than anyone can count. From hunting ghosts and demons in the early seasons to battling angels, Leviathans, and even God himself, Sam and Dean Winchester’s journey became one of the longest-running genre shows in TV history. Whether you’ve been watching since 2005 or binged all 327 episodes recently, our trivia will test everything you know about the hunting life.

Castiel transformed from angel soldier to found family. Cas raising Dean from Hell, the angel who learned humanity, losing his grace multiple times, becoming human briefly, his love for the Winchesters making him rebel against Heaven, becoming God briefly, his final sacrifice confessing his love for Dean before the Empty took him—think you remember all of Castiel’s deaths, resurrections, and character growth?

Demons possessing humans with black smoke, exorcisms in Latin, demon traps and devil’s traps, holy water burning them, Ruby’s knife killing them, the hierarchy from crossroads demons to Knights of Hell to Princes of Hell—demon lore runs deep.
Monsters from folklore and Supernatural’s creative additions fill the show. Vampires with retractable teeth killed by beheading, werewolves transforming monthly, skinwalkers, djinn giving hallucinations while feeding on blood, rugarus feeding on human flesh, wendigos in the woods, shapeshifters shedding skin, ghouls eating the dead, rakshasas, vetala, nachzehrer—our questions test whether you remember how to kill each monster and which episodes featured them.

The Leviathans led by Dick Roman infiltrating society, their plan to turn humans into food, the dick joke names—Season 7’s monsters were unique.
Other major villains provided variety. The British Men of Letters with their rules and torture, Asmodeus the Prince of Hell, Abaddon the Knight of Hell, the Darkness/Amara threatening all creation, Billie/Death becoming antagonistic, Chuck/God as the final villain manipulating the Winchesters for entertainment, pulling the strings all along—our trivia tests whether you remember villain motivations, powers, and how they were defeated.
