Next morning Dean drives into Burkitsville and we see him open his phone and pull up Sam in his contact list, but he changes his mind and doesn’t call him.
Dean’s list is basic; it lists his contacts in alphabetical order. (On the “Then and Now” podcast it was mentioned that the names on the list – apart from Dad and Sam – were all poached from the SPN art department crew.)

Hi everyone,
Sorry it’s been so long since I last posted one of these. I’ve been giving some thought to the way I do these recaps and I’ve come to the conclusion that the essay length segments I’ve been posting are a lot of work and take me too long to prepare, plus I think the length puts some people off reading. So, I’m going to try a new approach with this one: I plan to post in bite size chunks examining just two or three scenes at a time. I’m hoping this will make it easier for me and enable me to post more often, and hopefully it’ll make the posts easier to digest for readers too.
Please let me know what you think of this change. Here goes:
I confess this is another episode that I’m not overly fond of, and I’m not sure why; it hits all the right notes with a solid MOTW story, the guest stars are entertaining, and it’s an important episode in terms of the brothers’ relationship. I suspect my ambivalence may simply be because the make-up FX for the ghost-patients’ physical deformities really creep me out but, if that’s the case, then I’d say the show was just doing its job!
We open with a spooky shot of the asylum that will become the main focus of the action.

Thanks so much for your continuing support 😊
Yes, I would be interested in an in-depth Campbell post.
I find it interesting that while both Dean and Sam compare Sam to John, John doesn't. In this scene…
