Believe it or not, Supernatural technically does have a Thanksgiving-style episode… but fans rarely talk about it. And there’s a powerful reason why.
The episode in question is Season 5, Episode 10 – “Abandon All Hope” — a chapter that brings the Winchester family together during a holiday moment… only to tear everything apart shortly after. What should have been a warm celebration becomes one of the show’s most emotionally devastating hours.
💔 Why It Hurts So Much
• It features the final stand of Ellen and Jo Harvelle, beloved hunters who sacrifice themselves to stop Lucifer.
• Sam and Dean share a rare moment of peace — a candlelit toast that feels like a family Thanksgiving… but filled with dread rather than comfort.
• The episode marks a turning point in the war against Lucifer, reminding viewers what the Winchesters risk every day.
Fans say this episode is:
> “A Thanksgiving feast of pain and tears.”
“The meal that broke the fandom.”
👀 If you haven’t rewatched it in a while, prepare yourself — the goodbyes hit even harder now.

Question for fans:
➡️ Should Supernatural give us another real Thanksgiving episode in Season 16 or future projects — one with joy instead of tragedy? 🦃✨
