About this ebook
Over 14 seasons, television's Supernatural has developed a devoted following of both fans and scholars. The show has addressed big issues, including perhaps the biggest--death.
This collection of new essays examines how death is represented and personified in the series, and how grief is processed in American society. Contributors discuss the show's explorations of the ultimate mystery, with topics covering American traditions and attitudes, folklore and mythology, resurrection, and grief and grieving.
