They have to team up to fight a ghost who is haunting the building and killing their colleagues.We discuss how Dean is channeling Patrick Bateman and Sam is channeling Scooby Doo this episode; how we feel about the Ghostfacers this time; all of the gruesome deaths that happen; and how this episode is a much needed breather in what has been a dark season overall so far.We also discuss our fear of lifts/elevators and what would be the better option if we found ourselves in a faulty lift that was about to drop; the ghost’s electric fingers; and how Zachariah actually has a good point at the end of the episode.Joy’s Easter eggs are about the links between the number 1444 and real deaths; the “Hound of the Baskervilles effect”; and an instance where a ghost reportedly killed someone.Stay safe out there, have each other’s backs, and always keep fighting!Sources used:https://epguides.com/Supernatural/  (for dates of episodes)https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1222603/?ref_=ttep_ep_17 https://supernaturalwiki.com/4.17_It%27s_a_Terrible_Life_(transcript)https://shura.shu.ac.uk/6377/3/clarke_-_scared_to_death_-draft_version.pdfEmail us: [email protected] and follow us on socials:Find us on Instagram Find us on ThreadsSupport the show by leaving a review and a 5 star rating wherever you listen, and sharing the episode with a friend.Theme music is Hard Rock (Fireman) by AlexGrohl from Pixabay Supernatural podcast, Supernatural TV show rewatch, Supernatural episode recap, Supernatural rewatch podcast, Supernatural fan podcast, Supernatural analysis podcast, Sam and Dean Winchester, Castiel, hunters and monsters, Supernatural demons, Supernatural angels, lore, favourite Supernatural moments, SPNFamily, behind the scenes Supernatural, monster of the week podcast, paranormal, urban legends, horror, fantasy, Supernatural season 4 recap, women podcasters.
