This work gathers contributors in philosophy, art history, biology, and popular culture to explore philosophical themes found in the American TV show Supernatural, which deals with demons and angels, heroes and villains, and morality and freewill. From Aristotle to Donald Trump, the essays identify the ideas of philosophical thinkers over the centuries, as found in the show, and connect the ideas to other works of literature, film, TV, and rock and roll.

Two brothers going out on the road, traveling from town to town, doing what they do best: fighting demons, monsters, ghosts, and other strange creatures. Across the fifteen seasons of the show, Supernatural has thrilled audiences with the story of two mortal men who move from hunting supernatural monsters to defeating everyone from Satan to the Archangel Michael--and, ultimately, God Himself.
Now for the first time, The Ultimate Supernatural and Philosophy brings together twelve contemporary philosophers and scholars to dissect the themes, adventures and anarchy that made this series a fan-favorite. Join us as we explore and discuss the nature of man, the problem of evil, existentialism, immortality and the philosophical implications that lie between them all.
