15 years later but the Moderators said it was okay to start these! I know not many people will probably post but I always love when I go to boards and can find episode threads to post my thoughts so I thought this show deserved these too, especially since all the other seasons are complete.
"Hook Man" | October 25, 2005
Sam and Dean head to Ankeny, Iowa to investigate the brutal death of a college student, and the victim's girlfriend Lori (Jane McGregor) says that the attacker was invisible. More attacks occur, with the victims seemingly connected to the girl. The brothers believe that the killer is the Hook Man, and research indicates that it is the vengeful spirit of Jacob Karns, a preacher who murdered 13 prostitutes in 1862 with the hook that replaced his lost hand and was later put to death for his crimes. Despite the man being buried in an unmarked grave, Dean manages to locate it and burn his bones, but it has no effect. To stop the spirit, they must destroy the hook, which was reforged into an unknown object by the church after Karns' death. In order to be sure, they burn everything silver in the church, but it doesn't stop the Hook Man. Lori and the brothers are confronted by the Hook Man. As they fight him, Sam realizes that Lori's cross necklace—given to her by her reverend father—is made of silver, and the spirit vanishes once it is burned.

This episode was okay, not my favorite of the bunch. I'd prob rate it a low 8 or high 7. I did enjoy seeing Sam connect with someone finally instead of Dean.
I thought that the reverend dad was going to be the bad guy but I was way off! I did enjoy the moments when Sam and Dean fought the demon of course !
