→History relative to the Winchesters
Following Lucifer's death at the hands of Dean Winchester,<ref name="thirteen23">[[13.23 Let the Good Times Roll]]</ref> Hell is left without a leader or a clear successor to the throne. As a result, the demon [[Kipling]] makes a play for the leadership of Hell by capturing Castiel and trying to make a deal with Sam to have a Crowley-like situation. However, Sam refuses to deal and kills Kipling in the fight that follows. Sam then proclaims to Kipling's henchmen that there will be no more Kings of Hell and any demon that wishes to challenge that will have to go through him. Frightened by Sam, the demons show their acquiescence by fleeing in smoke form.<ref name="fourteen01" /> Michael subsequently considers both the demons and angels to be a non-factor in his effort to destroy the world.<ref name="fourteen02">[[14.02 Gods and Monsters]]</ref> Later, while trying to avenge his family, Lucifer's former [[vessel]] [[Nick]] learns that they were killed by the demon [[Abraxas]].<ref name="fourteen07" /> After tracking down Abraxas, Nick learns that the demon had murdered his family on Lucifer's orders. Nick then kills Abraxas with an [[angel blade]].<ref name="fourteen11" /> After Nick's escape from police custody,<ref name="fourteen12">[[14.12 Prophet and Loss]]</ref> he teams up with two demons to [[resurrection|resurrect]] Lucifer. The demons supply him with [[angel]] [[grace]] for Nick's plan and guard [[Donatello Redfield]] while Nick is away getting [[Jack Kline]]'s blood. When Dean arrives to rescue Donatello, the two demons attack him. Dean is able to knock one unconscious and kills the other with an angel blade before rushing to Sam's rescue with Donatello.<ref name="fourteen17">[[14.17 Game Night]]</ref>
When [[God]] opens [[Portal|the Rupture]], all of the souls and demons of Hell are released upon the world. One such demon is [[Belphegor]] who presents himself as an ally to the Winchesters, claiming that he likes Hell and wants to return it to the way it is. With Belphegor's help, the Winchesters, Castiel and [[Rowena]] establish a magical barrier around the town of Harlan, Kansas that keeps all of the souls contained. However, they work to break down the barrier which will eventually fall. Belphegor suggests a plan to use [[Lilith's Crook]] to draw all of the souls and demons back into Hell and then seal the Rupture behind them. However, while raiding [[Lilith's Chamber]] for the Crook, Castiel learns from [[Ardat]] that Belphegor is seeking to rise to power as the new King of Hell himself. Belphegor kills Ardat and tries to use the Crook to gain massive power by absorbing all of the souls. Castiel foils Belphegor's plan and [[smiting|smites]] the demon, but destroys the Crook in the process, stopping the return of the souls and demons to Hell. Instead, Rowena casts a spell that draws everything into Rowena and sacrifices herself to cast all of the escaped souls and demons back into Hell before the Rupture closes completely.<ref name="fifteen01">[[15.01 Back and to the Future]]</ref><ref name="fifteen02">[[15.02 Raising Hell]]</ref><ref name="fifteen03">[[15.03 The Rupture]]</ref>
