Background
Sam Winchester was born into a family of hunters after his mother, Mary Winchester, was killed by the demon Azazel when Sam was only six months old. Raised by his father John Winchester alongside his older brother Dean, Sam spent his childhood traveling across America hunting supernatural creatures.
Unlike Dean, Sam wanted a normal life. He eventually left the family to attend Stanford University and study law, hoping to escape hunting forever. However, everything changed after Dean arrived asking for help to find their missing father. Shortly afterward, Sam's girlfriend Jessica Moore was murdered by the same demon responsible for his mother's death, forcing him back into hunting.
Throughout the series, Sam faces countless tragedies, including psychic abilities caused by demon blood, Lucifer's attempts to use him as his vessel, the loss of loved ones, possession, the loss of his soul, and repeated sacrifices to save humanity.
