Something involving Urban Legends. Ok we saw in the last episode that the Metatron is tampering with things upstairs (making it so there are no more prophets) well what is that causes unforeseen sideffects. I like to think of Heaven like one big machine and only God knows 100% how to work it properly so someone else tampering could lead to trouble.

In this case the mystical energy originaly intended for Prophets must go somewhere and ends up infecting people with compatible souls. These people start inadvertently bringing things into existence (like Gabriel's conjuring power). For example a kid hears about the slenderman and brings a construct of the creature into being.
