In honor of Supernatural Day

[caranfindel]

So apparently it's Supernatural Day again? Is this a thing? Is there some significance to 9/13 that I'm missing? Season 9 episode 13 is "The Purge," which has some good moments (yoga Sam, roofied Dean, more yoga Sam... mmmm... excuse me, I need a moment) but isn't exactly earthshattering. Is it a character's birthday? What's the deal with September 13?

ETA... Duh. It’s the day Supernatural first aired. Thanks to kalliel.

Anyway. In honor of the occasion, my friends at the Hot Topical, who are well aware of what I love, emailed me about their new Supernatural fashion collection. Including this awesome skirt that looks like a plaid shirt tied around your waist.


They styled it with a Led Zeppelin t-shirt! Someone over there is watching the show.

Dear lord, I adore this. I'm not going to buy it. I'm a goddamn grownup, and it's okay for my office to be full of toys, but I'm not wearing a skirt that looks like a shirt tied around your waist. (IT HAS SLEEVES.) But somebody needs to.

In other news, apparently Eric Kripke wrote the screenplay for the new movie The House With a Clock in its Walls. And apparently it's based on his favorite book as a child, and apparently that book influenced the show (I mean Show) he created years later. And apparently this movie is full of Supernatural Easter eggs.

CALLING ALL #SPNFamily. This was my fave book as a kid. It DIRECTLY inspired #Supernatural. It's #spn's origin story! Now we made it into a movie! (Loaded with #spn Easter Eggs). Come see Sept. 21. REQUIRED VIEWING FOR FANS. Here's an exclusive clip! @housewithaclock @amblin https://t.co/tt2SPI2GGI

So now I guess I have to watch it. And if this is just a clever way to trick a million people into watching your movie, I’ll be VERY DISAPPOINTED.

Anyway. Stay safe out there!

I rarely wear skirts....but I'd probably wear that one. Just as well it's not available here! US shipping costs (plus customs charges on top) are prohibitive and are saving me from myself. I'm really, really tempted by the 1:6 Dean figure...

Although, like Scoobynatural Dean, the face doesn't do him justice.

To be fair, that version isn't too bad, I've seen worse. But yeah, it's very hard to do The Face® justice!

Hee hee, yes, I had no idea until I saw it pop up on Facebook - 13 years today, wow!! I love the shirt/skirt especially teamed with the t-shirt, but I agree with you, I'd never buy it but someone has to! If I was 16 again...
I also agree with you about the merits of The Purge "yoga Sam, roofied Dean, more yoga Sam"!

Really, what else could you ask for?

Someone over at Hot Topical is definitely watching SPN!!!! I quite like it, but I'm not sure if I'd wear it.

Happy Supernatural Day!!!

I might have worn it (mumble mumble) years ago. I'm way too old now. Maybe I could convince The Kid to wear it.

Ooh, I love this skirt so much. And it looks fabulous with the Zep t-shirt.

I'm curious about this movie, even more now that you mentioned SPN easter eggs. I'll probably go see it if it shows here.

It's perfect with the LZ shirt, isn't it?

I probably won't see the movie in the theater, but I'll jump on it when it hits Redbox or HBO.

Happy belated Supernatural Day!

If you want something that's scary, with SPN easter eggs, that is free to watch I recommend Sacred Lies on Facebook.

I don't use Facebook. Is this, like, a FB series? Is it worth deal with the craphole that is FB? (I know, coming from a Tumblr user, ha ha.)

Well the show's good and it's free. Written by Jenny Klein and Raelle Tucker. But whether or not you're weary about giving Mr Zuckerberg more ad revenues, that's up to you!

I'd wear the skirt! I like it better without the pentagrams, honestly. XP I've actually considered turning a men's button-down shirt into a skirt before, lol.

Happy (belated) Supernatural Day!!
