Trivia:

In the scene at the vampire's lair, the song being played is "Strange Face of Love", an homage to (and directly from the soundtrack) of From Dusk Till Dawn (1996).

Goofs:

Factual errors: When Dean and Sam are talking about Daniel Elkin's death, Dean shows Sam a phone number John had listed in his journal. Dean tells Sam the area code is a Colorado area code. The area code seen in the journal is 570. The state of Colorado has four area codes: 303, 719, 720 and 970. 570 is a Pennsylvania area code.

Quotes:

Sam Winchester: Dad, we don't even know what these things are yet.
John Winchester: They were what Daniel Elkins killed best... vampires.
Dean Winchester: Vampires? I thought there was no such thing.
Sam Winchester: You never even mentioned them, Dad.
John Winchester: I thought they were extinct. I thought Elkins and others had wiped them out. I was wrong. Most vampire lore is crap. A cross won't repel them, sunlight won't kill them, and neither will a stake to the heart. But the bloodlust, that part's true. They need fresh human blood to survive. They were once people, so you won't know it's a vampire until it's too late.

First episode with the famous and much needed revolver

Vampires vampires vampires, they have to be in every show that's about anything supernatural, they are even the main theme of some shows like 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' and 'Angel', so they were certainly welcomed to make an appearance in one of the 'Supernatural' episodes as well...

But it's not them who made the good episode, it was the story about the revolver which is supposed to be made by Samuel Colt himself, and it can kill any creature with a single bullet, of course Winchesters have an eye on that gun as well since their adventure's biggest goal is to find yellow eyed demon which killed their mother and Sam's girlfriend and kill him, and there's no better way to do it than to do it with a gun that is surely to kill anything that moves!
