Trivia

The book Tommy is reading in the beginning is: "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" by Joseph Campbell. The book is about mythology, folklore and religion. Mary's maiden name is Campbell so it is possible that Joseph Cambell could be a relation of Sam and Dean's. Meaning the book was written by a hunter.

Goofs

They say this episode takes place in the area around Grand Junction, but the problem is that the geography of that area is all desert, not full of trees like they implied in the episode.

The Evil That Devours

While camping in Blackwater Ridge, Lost Creek, Colorado, three teenagers vanishes in the woods. Dean and Sam arrive in the place tracking their father, and they meet Haley Collins, who is trying to find her brother. Dean and Sam pretend to be Rangers and decide to help the girl, joining her expedition, and sooner they find that the creature is a Wendigo, a fast and cannibal partially human being that hibernates for twenty-three years, awaking for collecting and store human flesh.

The second episode of "Supernatural" is an action movie, different from the scary "Pilot". In this episode, Dean and Sam face "the evil that devours" successfully using the instructions of their father's diary. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Wendigo"
