Scarecrow

When i saw the end of the ep the first time that really built the mystery, a grest character introduction, something the series really needed, the mystery of the day is perfectly fine too, start of the dean loves pie thijg probably

This episode is the first time the show deployed a clear A story and B story structure. Each story on its own works. The A story of the boys fighting and splitting over having follow John's orders rings true and it makes sense that split would occur after the build up in Asylum. Likewise, Meg is a great secondary character and her introduction/mystery was a good run in the back half of season 1. Likewise, the B story-pagan god, human sacrifice-is an effective horror short. Nonetheless, there is no strong connection between the 2 stories and the episode feels like two different scripts got slapped together.

I can say that it is my favorite episode of the first season.

It has a dark and spooky town atmosphere. The scarecrow is extremely scary and the pagan town looks interesting.

Sam is rebellious, his older brother Dean is angry, and as a result they have an argument. What caught my attention in their discussions was that they were very realistic. In this episode, it is felt that the two brothers are better and stronger together, and how strong their bond is.

Dean's words to Sam on the phone, "I'm proud of you," and the funny words they say to each other at the end of the episode leave a strong impression.

If you're new to the series, this is an important episode. SPN nuts already know the significance.

Monster Of The Week story is solid, just the right amount of abhorrent chill and jump scares.

While in a motel, Sam and Dean receive a call from their father, asking them to give up trying to find him and to take note of the names of three young couples that had disappeared in Indiana along the last three years, always on the second week of April. Sam decides to go after his father in California and leaves Dean, who arrives in the small town of Burkitsville for investigation of the missing couples. Sam meets the drifter Meg, who is also hitchhiking to California on the road, and stays with her waiting for a bus in the bus station. Dean discloses that a pagan god is demanding sacrifices in a fertility ritual in the annual cycle of killings with the support of the locals and a creepy scarecrow. When Dean and a local girl are offered to the scarecrow, Sam returns to help them.

"Scarecrow" is another great episode of "Supernatural", where the brothers face the menace of an invincible scarecrow possessed by a god and learns that family is above everything. The intriguing character of Meg shows in the last scene that will certainly meet Dean and Sam in the next episodes. My vote is nine.

Title (Brazil): "Espantalho" ("Scarecrow")
