You see, it seems like a normal parasol. But when I tilt it just so... It reflects the sunlight, so as to chase away any vampires. A most ingenious hunter weapon.

It is said if you walk through a Glasgow park at dusk and see a veiled lady who asks for your help getting home, you will never be seen again.
(Photo from when I was in Glasgow and managed to find a dress, hat, veil, and makeup to do a photoshoot while on vacation!)

Me, if I was a Woman in White 👀 (I'm taking liberties here. lol)
A White Lady (or woman in white) is a type of female ghost. She is typically dressed in a white dress or similar garment, reportedly seen in rural areas and associated with local legends of tragedy.

Does Bluesky like #Supernatural?
In the hopes of bringing Supernatural fans more joy, as someone who just started watching the show for the first time, I downloaded a snapshot of various Supernatural actors and I will fill this thread with my guesses about what kind of character they play
