What's dead should stay dead.

– Dean Winchester, 2.04 Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things

You throw away your life because you've come to assume that it'll bounce right back into your lap. But the human soul is not a rubber ball.

– Death, 6.11 Appointment in Samarra

Getting killed in Supernatural is almost when you know you've made it. It's like getting a Weird Al song about you. You're no-one in Supernatural until you've died

– Jared, Interview with CW Source, September 25, 2008

In Supernatural, death is a rather impermanent state of being. All recurring characters in Supernatural - except Lisa Braeden, Ben Braeden, Becky Rosen, Chuck, Ghostfacers Harry Spangler and Ed Zeddmore, Tessa, and Death himself - have died at one point or another. Others like Sam and Dean Winchester come back to life. Other characters, such as Jess, Mary and John Winchester, Pamela and others - remain dead but often re-occur in the show through flashbacks, time travel, Alternate Universes or simply as ghosts.

Currently alive and having lunch recurring characters are Sam, Dean, Bobby, Castiel, Meg, Balthazar, Raphael, Lisa Braeden, Ben Braeden, Becky Rosen, Ghostfacers Harry Spangler and Ed Zeddmore, Tessa, and Death

Michael, Lucifer and Adam are trapped in Lucifer's Cage. Chuck's fate is unclear. If there ever really was a Chuck.


The following beings have the power of resurrecting the dead:

  • Done in the context of making a deal - i.e. Sam in 2.22 All Hell Breaks Loose: Part Two. Unclear if the Crossroads Demon does the actual resurrecting or if a more powerful demon does it for them.
  • King of Hell

This page features the deaths and reappearances of recurring (that is have appeared in two or more episodes) characters on the Show.

Dean

Dean dies in Mystery Spot for real...until the Trickster brings him back

Dean may have the distinction of being the most killed character. He was killed approximately 100 times on the repeating Tuesday and subsequent Wednesday in 3.11 Mystery Spot by the Trickster, who also brings him back to life.

Ways Dean is known to have died in the episode:
  • Shot at the Mystery Spot
  • Hit by a car
  • Crushed by a falling piano or desk (object disputed)
  • Chokes on a sausage
  • Slips in the shower
  • Poisoned by a taco
  • Electrocuted by his razor
  • Accidentally killed with an axe by Sam
  • Shot with an arrow by Doris the waitress
  • Mauled by a golden retriever
  • Shot by a robber

Dean was later killed by Hellhounds in 3.16 No Rest For The Wicked when Lilith collected on the deal he had made with a Crossroads Demon in 2.22 All Hell Breaks Loose: Part Two. Dean was brought back from Hell by Castiel in 4.01 Lazarus Rising.

A Dean variation, Future!Dean is killed by Lucifer in 5.04 The End.

Dean is also killed by hunters in 5.16 Dark Side Of The Moon and brought back to life by Joshua. During this episode, Ash comments that Sam and Dean have died before and been brought back by angels, with their memories erased. This means that no accurate death tally can be established for either brother.

During 6.11 Appointment in Samarra, Dean goes to an unlicensed doctor to have his heart stopped. Desperate to solve the issue of Sam's missing soul, Dean uses his time as a spirit to contact Tessa, and ends up making a deal with Death. After a full seven minutes of death, the doctor and his assistant are able to revive Dean.

Sam

Sam is likely second in deaths to Dean. He is killed by Jake Talley in 2.21 All Hell Breaks Loose: Part One and brought back to life when Dean makes a deal with a Crossroads Demon. His other known deaths are as follows:

John Winchester

Chronologically, John is first killed by Azazel in 4.03 In The Beginning, and is resurrected by Azazel after Mary makes a deal to allow the demon entry to her house in ten years

He is killed by Azazel a second time in 2.01 In My Time Of Dying, when he sells his soul to save Dean, who is dying.

Postmortem appearances:

Mary Winchester

Mary is killed by Azazel in the 1.01 Pilot. Mary has since remained either dead or an illusion, though she has appeared on multiple occasions.

Jessica Moore

Jess is Sam's girlfriend, and her death occurs in the 1.01 Pilot and is ordered by Azazel. Jess subsequently:

Castiel

The first angel to have died and been brought back to life - he is killed by Raphael after he helps Dean escape from Zachariah in 4.22 Lucifer Rising. At that time, the force that resurrected him was unknown. In 5.16 Dark Side Of The Moon it is confirmed that this unknown force is God.

When Zachariah transports Dean to a version of the future in 5.04 The End, Future!Castiel is presumed killed near the end of the episode by demons during Future!Dean's attempt to kill Lucifer.

Castiel is also killed by Lucifer after he Molotovs Michael with Holy Fire in 5.22 Swan Song. He is brought back "new and improved" by God after Lucifer's defeat. It is worth noting that when killed by both Raphael and Lucifer, Castiel "exploded. Like a water balloon of chunky soup."

Bobby Singer

Bobby is apparently killed by people infected by the Croatoan virus in the future events in 5.04 The End. His neck is snapped by Lucifer in 5.22 Swan Song, but he is later resurrected by Castiel.

The Impala

The Impala has been referred to as character in itself, and has had its own brushes with destruction. In 1.22 Devil's Trap, the Impala is crushed by a demon driven semi-truck. Bobby refers to the Impala as having been totaled, but Dean is able to repair it during the course of Season 2. The Impala is also shown destroyed in the alternate future of 5.04 The End. The Impala is later damaged in 6.14 Mannequin 3: The Reckoning- Dean is seen repairing it at the end of the episode.

Samuel Campbell

He is possessed and killed by Azazel in 1973 in 4.03 In The Beginning, and later resurrected Crowley sometime prior to 6.01 Exile On Main St.(nearly 30 years later). Sam kills him in 6.16 And Then There Were None while he is possessed by the Khan Worm.
