Shows that feel likeSupernatural (2005–2020)

When they were boys, Sam and Dean Winchester lost their mother to a mysterious and demonic supernatural force. Subsequently, their father raised them to be soldiers. He taught them about the paranormal evil that lives in the dark corners and on the back roads of America ... and he taught them how to kill it. Now, the Winchester brothers crisscross the country in their '67 Chevy Impala, battling every kind of supernatural threat they encounter along the way.

If you loved Supernatural, the closest series we have are Preacher (2016), The Exorcist (2016) and Archive 81 (2022). All three share Supernatural's contemplative and twisty feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is A Discovery of Witches (2018).
