Benny is a vampire who died fifty years ago and helps Dean escape from Purgatory in exchange for being brought back to life.
Season 8
In We Need To Talk About Kevin, when Dean Winchester ends up in Purgatory, Benny encounters and saves Dean from another vampire. Benny offers Dean a deal: he knows a way out that only humans can use and will lead Dean to it if he allows Benny's soul to hitch a ride out with him. Dean reluctantly agrees on the condition that they find the missing Castiel first. A year after Dean got trapped in Purgatory, he finally escapes using Benny's method, arriving in Maine with Benny's soul in his arm. Dean travels to Benny's grave in Louisiana and performs a spell over his bones that resurrects the vampire. The two embrace and go their separate ways, but not before Dean tells Benny to stay out of trouble. Benny later calls Dean and they agree to stay away from each other for awhile until they are used to being back in the outside world, though Dean does tell Benny to call him if he gets into trouble.
