[[Purgatory]] is a spiritual realm where the souls of supernatural creatures such as [[vampires]] and [[Shapeshifter|shapeshifters]] go after they die. This place is not connected with [[Heaven]] or [[Hell]], though [[Crowley]] and the rogue [[reaper]] [[Ajay]] have said that it is Hell adjacent. After resurrecting [[Samuel Campbell]], Crowley has him tracking down high-ranking creatures, specifically [[Alpha]]s, so that he can question them about the location of Purgatory, which he wants for "development purposes." Though in truth, Crowley and [[Castiel]] had joined forces to find Purgatory in order to get the souls, which would aid Castiel in his war against [[Raphael]]. When [[Dean]] kills [[Leviathan]] leader [[Dick Roman]], both he and Castiel get transported there without dying due to their proximity to Dick Roman when he was stabbed with the righteous bone of a mortal.
Due to Dean being a living human being, a portal was created in Purgatory specificity to "spit him out"<ref>[[{{8.06 Blood Brother]]05}}</ref> according to the vampire [[Benny Lafitte]], who helped Dean find it in exchange for Dean taking him through the portal. Dean escapes Purgatory with Benny's soul inside his arm, allowing him to resurrect the vampire. When Dean is released Benny's soul from his body onto Benny's bones he speaks the words: ''Anima. Corpori. Fuerit corpus totem resurgent''. Which roughly translates as "Soul. Body. Whole body shall be raised." When Sam later escapes from Hell with [[Bobby Singer]]'s soul, he carries it out of Purgatory in a similar way to what Dean did with Benny's soul.
