“The Curious Case of Dean Winchester,” airs Oct. 29: “When a 25-year-old man drops dead of old age and a 60-something man goes missing, only to turn up young and extremely healthy, the Winchesters investigate and discover a backroom poker game where players gamble to win or lose years of their lives.

“Changing Channels,” airs Nov. 5: “When Sam and Dean find themselves living their lives on what appear to be TV shows, it makes for a whole new style of reality television and they wonder if the Trickster (guest star Richard Speight, Jr.) is to blame.

But is the Trickster really the mastermind behind the madness?

SPNChannels “The Real Ghostbusters,” airs Nov. 12: “Super-fan Becky (guest star Emily Perkins) tricks Sam and Dean into attending a ‘Supernatural’ fan convention, complete with fans dressed up as Sam and Dean.”
