Hey everyone! Did you all enjoy the finale! I cannot wait for next season! Hope u enjoy. Please read and review!
A man visits his grandson at Christmas. As he dresses as Santa, he hears a noise on the roof. As his grandson watches in horror, he is yanked up the chimney and his bloody boot drops into the fireplace.
'That poor kid.' May said, looking concerned.
In the guise of FBI agents, Sam and Dean are in Ypsilanti, Michigan, visiting Mrs. Walsh, whose husband has disappeared. The only clue they find is a bloody tooth in the fireplace.
'That's gross.' Cas commented.
Sam finds out he is the second man in the town to disappear and speculates that they may be dealing with an evil Santa, as there are many legends, such as that of Krampus, about a being who punishes the wicked at Christmas.
'Evil Santa? Seriously?' Mary said, with a smile on her face.
'Whatever. It was a plausible theory.' Sam replied.
The boys check out "Santa's Village" which both men visited before they disappeared. Dean says that he'd like to celebrate Christmas but Sam refuses.
'Why?' Mary questioned.
'I'm sure it will explain later.' Sam replied.
The scene cuts to young Sam and Dean are in a motel room, waiting for their father to return.
Mary smiled. A part of her was excited to see a part of Sam and Dean's childhood.
Sam is wrapping a present for his Dad, which he got from Uncle Bobby, and is asking questions about John – what he does, where he goes. Dean brushes off the questions, but gets angry when Sam asks about their mother.
Mary sighed.
'So you guys didn't like to talk about me much then?' Mary said, with a sigh.
'Not then. I mean, Sam didn't even know what Dad did for a living yet.' Dean replied.
Back in the present day, Sam and Dean are in Santa's Village, observing the man who is playing Father Christmas, who walks with a limp and smells of candy just like legend says the evil Santa does.
'See, it was a plausible theory.' Sam commented.
'Yeah, that just happened to be completely wrong.' Dean replied.
When a woman comes and asks if she can escort their child to Santa, Dean replies that it was a life long dream of Sam's who replies that they were just there to watch which just makes things worse.
Everyone except Sam laughed.
'Wow. You are bad at coming up with non-creepy excuses.' Bobby commented.
'Whatever.' Sam said, sighing.
That night the boys stake out the man's trailer. Dean pushes Sam again, asking why he doesn't want to celebrate Christmas. When they hear a scream from inside the trailer they enter, armed, but find a dishevelled 'Santa' watching porn with a large bong and a bottle of liquor on hand.
'Definitely not an evil Santa.' Jo commented, sniggering.
To cover their mistake, they pretend to be carollers and sing an out-of-tune, and poorly remembered, version of "Silent Night".
Everyone except Sam and Dean laughed.
'You guys are awful at singing.' Jo commented, while laughing.
'Why don't you know the words to Silent Night?' Mary asked, looking concerned.
'We didn't exactly celebrate Christmas a lot as kids.' Dean replied.
'Why not?' Mary asked, and there was an awkward silence.
'I was often away...hunting.' John said, slowly.
'Right.' Mary said, upset.
Elsewhere the same night, another man is taken, up the chimney, in a sack. When Sam and Dean investigate the next day, Sam notices the family has the same unusual wreath over the fireplace that he saw in the Walsh house.
'That's such a random thing to notice but I assume it turned out to be useful.' John commented, and Sam nodded.
Sam identifies the plant in the wreath as meadowsweet – an herb used in pagan rites to summon gods to a human sacrifice. Sam concludes they're looking for the pagan god of the Winter Solstice, who grants clement weather.
'Evil Santa would have been much more interesting.' John commented. Sam sighed.
Back at the motel, Dean again suggests that they celebrate Christmas. When Sam asks why, given that he hasn't mentioned it for years, Dean admits that he wants to celebrate this year as it his last year. Sam responds that he can't celebrate for that very reason.
Mary looks worriedly at Dean.
'Wow. I was a lot more depressed than I remember.' Dean commented, trying to lighten the mood.
The scene cuts back to young Sam reveals to Dean that he has read John's Journal, and asks whether monsters are real. Dean reluctantly confirms that they are, but that their father is a hunter who kills them. Sam is upset and afraid that the monsters will come after them.
'That's how you found out?' John questioned, looking upset. Sam nodded.
'I'm sorry. I should have told you properly instead of letting Dean do it.' John replied.
Back in the present day, Sam and Dean visit Madge and Edward Carrigan, who appear to be the perfect suburban couple.
'They are so creepily normal.' Jo commented.
'Too normal.' Mary commented.
Further research reveals that they were in Seattle the previous year when three men disappeared. Bobby advises them that, if they are indeed the pagan gods, spears made of evergreen wood will kill them.
'Always helping you guys out.' Bobby commented, with a grin.
'Yep. You actually saved our lives here.' Sam replied.
The boys return to the Carrigan house. In the basement they find human remains and the latest victim, still in a sack. Madge and Edward attack them, knock them out, and take them captive. The boys wake up bound to chairs in the kitchen. The Carrigans confirm that they are pagan gods who, since the rise of Christianity, have been trying to blend into human society, taking only a few human victims each year.
'So they are like pagan Mr and Mrs Claus?' Jo queried.
'I guess so.' Sam replied.
'So it was evil Santa.' John replied, with a grin.
They start the ritual sacrifice, taking blood from Sam and Dean and pulling out one of Sam's fingernails.
'That's gross!' Jo said shuddering.
'You weren't the one who it actually happened to.' Sam replied.
They also tell Dean to watch his language and suggest that he uses fudge as a substitute. Just as they are about to extract one of Dean's teeth, they are interrupted by a neighbour at the front door, and when they return Sam and Dean have escaped. A fight ensues and the boys kill the Carrigans with stakes made from branches of a Christmas tree.
'You used a Christmas tree to kill Santa Claus?' Jo said, laughing.
'I guess so.' Sam replied.
The scene cuts back to young Dean who wakes Sam and explains that while he was sleeping, John returned and left a tree and presents.
'You didn't did you?' Mary asked.
'No.' John replied, quietly, refusing to meet John's eyes.
When Sam opens his presents – a Barbie and a sparkly baton – he challenges Dean, who admits he stole them from a house down the street.
'Amazing present Dean.' Jo said, sarcastically.
'I didn't realise it was for a little girl.' Dean protested.
Sam wants to give Dean the present meant for his father. Dean at first refuses, but then accepts. It is the amulet that he wears to this day.
Mary smiled, realising that it was kinda sweet.
Back in the present day, Dean returns from buying beer to find that Sam has decorated the motel room with a tree (hung with air fresheners), and made eggnog.
'You two are adorable.' Jo commented, sarcastically.
'Shut up.' Dean replied.
The boys exchange presents, all bought from the local gas station. Dean gives Sam porn magazines and shaving cream, and Sam gives Dean motor oil and a candy bar. Sam starts to say something, but is overcome with the emotion of the moment and instead suggests they watch a football game on TV.
