'The Kids Are Alright' takes the term "little monsters" to a whole new level.

In the episode, Dean uses a Final Destination-esque buzz-saw death as an excuse to rekindle and old flame. However it isn't too long before the boys discover that the children in this once quiet suburb are being replaced by parent murdering devils.

The design of the changeling is one that nightmares are made of. Most of the time, they look like normal children, but a glimpse in a mirror reveals their true form, involving decaying flesh and way too many teeth. Imagine having a kid who is secretly a literal spawn from Hell plotting your bloody demise. Birth control, brought to you by Supernatural.

What this episode nails is the idea that suburbia might not be the calm paradise it's made out to be. Darkness could be brewing right next door without anyone suspecting a thing until it's too late.

Changelings, fun for the whole family!
