History
He seemed to lead in a format similiar to that of a cult leader as his vampire servants call him "Father". After Benny fell in love with a human named Andrea and abandoned The Old Man and his nest, The Old Man hunted Benny down and killed him, turning Andrea into a vampire as revenge against Benny, making her his second-in-command. Benny is later resurrected by Dean and with Dean's help, comes after The Old Man for revenge. After escaping thanks to Andrea, Benny confronts The Old Man who refuses to fight back, hating the world and wanting to die on his own terms. Promising to show The Old Man a new world, Benny kills him while Dean kills all of the other vampires in his nest.
