Archetypes In Supernatula

Ancient cultures created myths to understand the world and events around them. All myths have a constant fundamental form of a theme, character type, or symbol which are called archetypes. The transgressor archetype is based off the titan Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods and gave it to mortals. Characters that possess this archetype commonly have forbidden knowledge and will test the limits of what should be known. Their goal is to create something using their forbidden knowledge, but that creation leads to accidentally destroying. The CW show Supernatural follows two brothers who hunt monsters and ghosts to try to save humanity. As the Winchester brothers try to save humanity from one threat to another, the transgressor archetype is used as their solutions will often lead to a more significant threat. Supernatural is a TV show that airs on the CW channel. It follows the brothers Sam and Dean Winchester as they hunt monsters and ghosts across the United States. They were introduced to hunting at a young age by their father after their mother was killed by a demon. Their father spent the rest of his life trying to hunt the demon down and brought the boys with him. Throughout the series, they use police scanners and internet stories to find occurrences

Most of the information that they use is information from myths and legends on how to kill them and most of the time it’s the correct information. They also receive a lot of their information from a journal that their father left him when he disappeared before the series
