Talk:Samhain

The name is pronounced "sowan" or "sowain" not "Sam Hain".

only dean, sam and Castiel call him by his name, and I find it doubtful, they would know the correct prononceation, Persumably if he addressed himself he would have prononced it the correct way.

Status
It cannot be argued that in season 4, episode 7, that Sam only sent Samhain back to hell, he could not kill at that time, So unless he is trapped, why has he not risen to take charge of hell? im sure he could kill Crowley with that white light thing, especially if it's anything like the one cass used on the jefferson starships.

plus he could raise monsters (sounds simmilar to Eve), Zombies, Ghosts and apparently every nasty thing the boys have faces, which sounds Bad-ass plus he has unique eyes, as does Azazel, but he seems very destructive and not much a leader, any thoughts?

I would think that Samhain is trapped again. That and the page says that he can only rise every 600 years. So unless someone manages to free him before 2608, he won't be King of Hell anytime soon. Samhain didn't have much screen time so we don't know whether or not he'd be a good leader of Hell. But his incredible power does show that he'd be powerful enough to scare other demons into obeying him. I'm still hoping that he'll appear in later seasons.L4D2 Ellis (talk) 05:30, November 25, 2012 (UTC)

Even if Samhain is more powerful than Crowley, he clearly doesnt have the cunning, visionary mind crowley has and seeing as crowley is the only one who knows what to do with no master plan we can assume he ranks higher than Samhain who is both locked down and has no plan.

Power Level
Perhaps it is worth noting that Samhain may well have been one of Lucifers first, as he was a seal to free his creator, the only other demon shown as a seal being  the first demon, Lilith, although her function as a seal was to die as the final seal to release Lucifer, so Samhain also being a seal who must rise, leans towards possibly lucifer wanting his chaotic monster controling necromancer demon, out and active during the apocalypse as a weapon, and let's face it, the only other who can raise dead is death, only other to control monsters is the mother of them, Eve.

These powerful traits mark him as a very unique and powerful demon indeed, I'm crediting his being exorcised due to his 600 years trapped in hell, he would have been off guard. In addition to his snarling, animal like personality he was also immune to iron, playing with an iron gate, had the white light like fello seal lilith, was hardly hurt by the knife, I think fans do not give him the credit he desrves.

 * No, Samhain, the being, isn't a seal, rather his physical rising, ascension, was the designated seal. Hence, called, "the Rising of Samhain." He was, indeed, a strong demon, yes. Well, God also can raise anything dead, and Angels/and Higher (than human) beings can raise some things that are dead. -- ImperiexSeed, 7:17 PM, February 12th 2013

Iron?
shouldn't we state that Samhain is resistant to iron rather than immune, as both Alastair and Tammi have touched iron and haven't been burned and yet everyones stated they are resistant not immune. so shouldnt the same apply to Samhain?

No its down to the nature of how it occured, Tammi took a poker in a skirmish to take on another demon, Alastair was forcibly chained with Iron chains. Samhain touched Iron completely of his own volition, and then playfully touched it again for the sake of sadism, clearly he was completely immune to iron, with it having no effect on him what so ever, rather than arguably no vissible one.
