The cult fantasy drama Supernatural is all geared up to bid goodbye to fans after 15 long years. The show has maintained a firm fanbase over the years but in 2019 it was announced that the 15th season would be its last. The series finale would most likely have aired by now had shooting not been stalled because of the global crisis.
The Winchester brothers have gone from killing vampires and wendigos to locking horns with the Devil and God himself over the course of the series. Let us take a trip down memory lane to revisit some of the funniest and scariest episodes of season 11.
10 Funniest: "Out Of The Darkness, Into The Fire"
Even if it doesn't get you doubled over in laughter, actor Mark Sheppard brings in his characteristic snark and humor in the season 11 premiere.
Crowley is forced to leave his usual vessel after Rowena puts it under the immobility spell. But dire though his circumstances are, the king of hell has his priorities figured out, as always. He doesn't think twice before having an orgy with the woman's husband and friends, even though he plans to kill them all anyway.
9 Scariest: "Form And Void"
In the second episode of the season, the brothers are able to save a little baby girl, Amara, from a bunch of rabid monsters, and a police officer, Jenna, takes her home.
However, all is not what it seems and Dean arrives just in time to find that Jenna has slit her grandmother's throat; her transformation from the sweet young woman to the soulless monster is quite horrifying. In another room, Dean realizes the baby girl as the all-consuming Darkness, set free after the Mark of Cain was removed from Dean's arms. Miraculously, the newborn steps out of her pram and leaves the house.
8 Funniest: "Baby"
Fans know that the '67 Chevy Impala is as much a character on the show as anything or anybody else. The episode "Baby" is shot entirely from the car's perspective; the only other episode to be shot as such after the season 5 finale, "Swan Song."
The brothers go on what they think is a milk run, only it turns out to be much more than that when they cross paths with a bunch of Nachzehrers, a lethal cross of ghouls and vampires. The episode, however, is more about all that the eponymous 'Baby' has to put up with for the boys, rather than the case itself.
7 Scariest: "Plush"
Easter bunnies are cute but not when they stick to a man's head, murder people brutally, and then smirk evilly with a morbid sense of humor.
In "Plush," the Easter bunny does just that. Not just the bunny, but a team mascot tries to murder a stern high school football team coach. Masks are creepy anyway but the show dials it up a notch by having them haunt people and make them go rogue.
6 Funniest: "Don't You Forget About Me"
The Winchester brothers are pretty much alone in the world, with most of their friends and allies having died tragically along the way. Of the few they have left, Sheriff Jody Mills and the girls definitely top the list.
In this episode, the brothers answer a call for assistance from Claire Novak, who is now living with Jody and another wayward girl, Alex. While having dinner, the conversation veers towards sex and contraceptives. Jody tries to give "the talk" to Alex, and the Sheriff looks to Sam and Dean for some support. But clearly, she could have picked a better time to give the talk because the brothers are stumped at this very awkward choice of subject and look like they would prefer to be absolutely anywhere else in the world rather than at that dinner table. The talk is an important one to have, but that doesn't make it any less awkward for those at the dinner table. The hilarity ensues by how clearly uncomfortable everyone is with the subject matter and how relateable that feels to viewers.
5 Scariest: "Oh Brother Where Art Thou?"
The Darkness is getting restless, trying, and failing to find God. She goes on a rampage and it's far from pretty.
All God's believers are brutally murdered as Amara's wrath comes down upon those she thinks are faithful to her brother. As water turns into blood, the eerie ambiance is one of foreboding, instantly indicating that some event of apocalyptic nature is about to unfold.
4 Funniest: "Love Hurts"
A Valentine's day episode, Sam and Dean investigate murders where what initially appears to be a shapeshifter is ripping people's hearts out.
Dean, of course, starts the day after Valentine's day, stoned and in urgent need of a shower, and with a huge hickey on his neck. Before realizing that they are dealing with dark magic, he typically wonders if the case had anything to do with an ironic werewolf ripping hearts apart on Valentine's day.
3 Scariest: "Red Meat"
In a rather horrifying episode, Sam and Dean pursue a pack of werewolves. It seems like a run of the mill case until Sam gets shot.
The episode is heart-stopping in the sense that both of the brothers come very close to dying, but what elevates the horror factor is when a human being, not a supernatural creature, suffocates an already hurt Sam without batting an eyelid. After all, despite all the paranormal stuff for which the drama series is known, it is when real people start behaving like monsters, that one's heart goes truly aflutter.
2 Funniest: "Safe House"
While the boys await news on Amara, they decide to look into a mysterious case where a young girl has been attacked in her own home. However, fans are in for a lovely surprise, as the boys find out that the same house had been investigated earlier by their old pals, Bobby and Rufus.
It's great to watch the two older hunters waltz in as Riggs and Murtaugh from Lethal Weapon, literally, and do their thing. The two quibble over the tiniest of things, with Rufus as arrogant as ever, and Bobby keeping him on his toes.
1 Scariest: "The Chitters"
In 1989, two young boys go out into the forests outside Colorado, and only one returns. In the present, the brothers are investigating a similar case where people are disappearing after being attacked by some monstrous creature.
The creature turns out to be a Bisaan, or Bisan, of Malaysian origin that comes out every 27 years, attacking innocent bystanders with the intention of mating with them. The episode weaves a disturbing tale of love, loss, and revenge.
