[edit] Background

Sam is quite different from his brother, Dean. He is rational, sensitive, and more concerned with a "normal life" than his brother. He also rebelled against his father's attempts to raise him as a demon hunter and enrolled in Stanford University instead. He typically wears a button up shirt with a Carhartt jacket or other jackets with hoods. In the first season he wore white converse but in the second he has begun wearing brown biker boots.

[edit] Season 1

Sam Winchester was born on May 2, 1983. When he was only six months old (November 2, 1983), his mother Mary Winchester was killed in his nursery by The Demon. Infant Sam was saved when his older brother, Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles), ran outside with him while their father John Winchester went back to attempt to rescue Mary, who was stuck on the ceiling and consumed by the flames that later engulfed the entire house.

Twenty two years later to the day, the same demon killed Sam's girlfriend Jessica Moore, which spurs Sam to embark on a journey to find their missing father and get vengeance on the demon. While John Winchester is missing, he occasionally contacts the boys to leave them new missions to complete. The boys fend off mystical creatures such as the Woman in White, the wendigo, folklore's Bloody Mary, and shapeshifters. Through these missions, Sam begins experiencing episodes of precognition and once displays telekinesis.

The season finale concluded with Sam, Dean, and their father John escaping from a clash with The Demon in Salvation, Iowa. While Sam was driving the Winchesters to a hospital after Dean and John got hurt, a semi truck sideswiped them, causing massive damage to Dean's Impala with the Winchesters inside.

[edit] Season 2

In the second season, Sam takes on a more active role in the hunting. He tells Dean that this is what their dad would have wanted him to do. The Demon's plans for Sam are still unknown. Dean and Sam meet with three people that John once knew, Ellen Harvelle and her daughter Jo, and Ash, who assist the brothers in their hunting. In the episode Simon Said, he displays immunity to powers of mind control. He is also immune to the demonic sulfur virus in the episode Croatoan.
