10 Terrifying Supernatural Monsters That Kept You Up At Night

6. The Wendigo

Supernatural started off with a bang in its first season and just the second episode of the first season saw the Winchester Brothers investigating the disappearance of some hikers near a town called Blackwater. This leads the bothers to discover that a Wendigo is stalking the woods, and this is the reason for the huge amount of missing people in Blackwater.

The Wendigo is achieved through practical effects creating a pale, tall and gaunt figure that is something that could easily fit in the Guillermo Del Toro book of practical horror creatures.

Combining that with the act of cannibalism, which is the key motivation for a Wendigo, it leaves you with a truly terrifying creature and one fitting of Sam and Dean’s second adventure.
