==Characteristics==
Samhain has pale gray (or possibly blue<ref>''[[Supernatural: Bobby Singer's Guide to Hunting]]''</ref>) irises, black pupils, and white sclerae.<ref name="four07" />. His unique eye color is possibly be due to his poor eyesight. He could be classified as a third [[white-eyed demon]] as Anna Milton's drawing of him possessing Don Harding shows him displaying white eyes. Howsoever, he's classified as a [[demon mutation]] together with the [[Acheri-demons]], the [[Seven Deadly Sins]] and also the [[Croatoan Virus]].<ref name="essential">[[The Essential Supernatural: On the Road with Sam and Dean Winchester]]</ref>
===Powers and abilities===
* Demonic energy – Samhain can emanate a demonic blast of white energy from his palms that can decimate almost any target.<ref name="four07" />
* [[Necromancy]] – As the Lord of the Dead once on Earth, Samhain can raise supernatural creatures such as [[ghosts]] and [[zombies]] at will, without the use of any [[spell]]s.<ref name="four07" />
* Superhuman strength and durability – Samhain strength power far exceed that of regular demons. He was shown to be resitant to [[iron]] as well as the [[demon-killing knife]] when Sam slices his arm. If Sam realized that the whitish-eyed demon is as he self said "So, this demon’s pretty powerful", he has been hinted that Samhain may have been truly immune to it's killing power.<ref name="four07" />
===Weaknesses===
* [[Demon-killing knife]] – While the knife was able to cause Samhain great pain, it is unknown if it could have killed him. As Sam self said "Might take more than the usual weapons" that means that Samhain maybe truly immune to Ruby's knife.
* [[Exorcism]] – Like all demons, Samhain can be exorcised back to Hell. While in Hell, the ritual to raise Samhain can only be attempted once every 600 years.<ref name="four07" />
* Poor Eyesight – Unusual for a [[demon]], Samhain's eyesight is incredibly poor. In this way, he can be tricked by obstructions to people's faces (e.g. blood, a mask) into believing them to be dead or non-human, and leaving them alone.<ref name="four07" />
==Trivia==
* Samhain may be classified as a third [[white-eyed demon]], but unlike Lilith and [[Alastair]], his eyes have pale gray irises and black pupils, possibly due to his poor eyesight. Howsoever, Samhain self is etablished to be the Lord of the Dead and an [[demon mutation]] alongside the [[Acheri-demons]], the [[Seven Deadly Sins]], the [[Croatoan Virus]]. [[<ref name="essential">[[The Essential Supernatural: On the Road with Sam and Dean Winchester]]</ref>
* [[Tracy Davis]]'s complaint about her experiences when waiting 600 years to summon her master indicates that Samhain was [[exorcise]]d in the year 1408. 1+4+0+8 also adds up to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/13_(number) the number 13], which has a number of meanings but is most notorious as an unlucky number to the superstitious.
