John Winchester (Supernatural)

John Winchester was once a regular family man from Lawrence, Kansas. With his wife Mary, he had two young sons, Sam and Dean. John’s life changed forever in December of 1983 when he discovered his wife’s body suspended from the ceiling of their nursery on fire. From that moment on, John knew that there were things in this world that defied normal explanation. The death of Mary Winchester awakened him to the world of the supernatural and he embarked upon a crusade hunting the various monsters of the Earth. He traveled across the country honing his knowledge and his skills, bringing along with him his two sons. Sam was still an infant when his mother was killed and has very little recollection of her. Dean, though still young, witnessed his mother’s death and spent the following years taking cues from his father and learning the fine art of hunting. Primarily however, John made sure that Dean always kept a close watch over his little brother. One of the first allies that John encountered in his fight against the forces of evil was the psychic Missouri Mosely. Mosely helped to point him in the right direction of more threats of the supernatural, particularly the existence of demons.
