"Supernatural" is returning for its 11th season on October 7, 2015. The previous season ended May of 2015, so it has been quite a wait for the show's dedicated fans. The horror-fantasy television series is one of the longer-running series of its kind and has thus become a cult favorite. As the premiere date for the upcoming season approaches, several reports have been circulating about what fans can expect to happen to the Winchester brothers in this season.

According to a report in TV Line, there are new forms of evil in play in the coming season. In the Season 10 finale, the angel Castiel was placed under a spell by Rowena, the witch and mother of Crowley. Because of this, Castiel has to deal with the effects of the spell until halfway throughout the season, that is, until Sam and Dean are able find a way to break the spell.

The other villain that was introduced in the season finale and is likely going to be Season 11's main antagonist is The Darkness. Not much is known about the Darkness except that it was released by Rowena when she successfully took away the Mark of Cain from Dean. According to another report in Latin Post, the Darkness is an ancient, primordial evil that existed even before the time of the King of Hell.

Crowley or the King of Hell will still figure prominently during the season, but he will be more concerned with dealing with the Darkness which is an unknown even to him. The report even mentioned that Crowley may end up teaming up with the brothers so that the Darkness can be defeated.

Aside from the new villains, Season 11 is also bringing the brothers back together again as partners in the fight against the supernatural. With Dean losing the Mark of Cain, he is once again human.

The report also mentioned that there will be a special episode in the season that will feature one whole episode as it happens in the iconic Chevrolet Impala that the brothers use in their missions.
