Whether you’re a Supernatural fan who’s invested 15 years or 15 months of your life into the series, it’s hard to say goodbye.
Nothing will compare to what Sam and Dean brought to the screen, and many fans may need time to digest the end. For those who seek to fill the void left by Supernatural, reruns are always available, but these TV shows are can be added to the lineup.
‘Helstrom’
A new Marvel TV series about a set of siblings who hunt down baddies in the world, Helstrom has a twist in that said siblings possess supernatural powers.
Those powers can hurt and help. Though sister and brother don’t see eye-to-eye, their shared trauma and Satanic parentage ensures they’ll stay connected regardless of where they are or who they’re with at any moment.

‘Grimm’
Grimm features David Giuntoli as Nick Burkhardt, a detective who doesn’t realize he’s part of a lineage of hunters who can see creatures disguised as humans. Friendships are tested, family relationships are complicated, and nothing is what it seems.
The series pulls characters and storylines from fairy tales around the world, but in this police drama, they’re anything but sweet. Stream all six seasons of the NBC series on Amazon.
‘Lost Girl’
Bo doesn’t realize she’s a succubus until a tragic event in her youth changes everything. As an adult, she learns more about her past and the border between the human and fae worlds. Like Supernatural, the show explores the main characters’ flaws and taps into folklore and mythology.
