Richard Sullivan (Anime Series)

Doctor Richard Sullivan is a character featured in Supernatural The Animation.

Overview
50 years ago, Richard was happily married to a woman named Abigail Sullivan. Their happiness was cut short when the two ended up in a car accident, and Abigail sustained serious internal injuries, leading to her death.

Richard was horribly sad over the loss, and soon came to believe that through his knowledge, he could bring Abigail back. Richard dug up her body and began experimenting tirelessly, and eventually discovered the use of organs stolen from other people.

Abigail returned, however, after 15 years, the organs began to fail, and Richard was forced to kill another young woman. He repeated these killings until Sam and Dean Winchester decided to investigate.

Driven to suspicious by the physical similarities between Michelle (Richard's new wife) and Abigail, the brothers came to realize who was behind the killings, though they initially suspected Abigail. Richard confessed and attempted to take Sam hostage, but Abigail arrived and pleaded with Richard to stop, and killed herself using his gun.

Richard was arrested in the end when the police arrived.
