The boys are back...and we couldn't be more excited for their return.

Supernatural's 11th season premiere is less than a month away, finally bringing another helliatus to an end. But be careful what you wish for as E! News has your exclusive first look at Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean's (Jensen Ackles) return on Oct. 7, and it's bloody. Like, really bloody.

Judging from the brand-new promo above, which features your first look at new footage, things are getting super-dark on the longrunning CW hit, thanks to, you know, The Darkness taking over at the end of the season 10 finale. "Dark. Darker. Darkess," the video warns of what's ahead. And if that isn't enough, we get glimpses of Sam and Castiel (Misha Collins) both being tortured. No wonder Sam is turning to God for help.
