Episodes
14.16 Don't Go in the Woods
In Polk City, Iowa, a Kohonta kills a teenage girl, Barbra, witnessed by her boyfriend Thomas and Thomas's father, Sheriff Mason Romero. The attack draws the attention of Sam and Dean, who discover a pattern of missing people in the area going back to at least 1943 and possibly further. Investigation into the local lore reveals a Kohonta as the culprit, while Mason identifies the Kohonta as Henry Parker, an early settler in the area who engaged in cannibalism and was cursed for it. Though the Native Americans had bound Henry to part of the forest and marked it, the truth was forgotten over time and thought of simply as a legend. In a confrontation with Henry, Mason kills him with a silver blade to the heart and they are able to save Thomas, who had gone after the Kohonta in revenge.
