BackgroundEdit

Season 4Edit

Charlie was an old witch who once shilled for P. T. Barnum, who gifted him with a grimoire, a book of spells, with which he achieved immortality. During his lifetime, he met Jay and Vernon and became good friends with them. So Charlie didn't tell Jay and Vernon about the fact that he was immortal and grew old with them. He became best friends with Jay.

Even in old age, Charlie still continued to help Jay out, until he found out that Jay was going to commit suicide on stage. That was when he used his magic to force Jay's death onto someone else using tarot cards, notably the ten of swords and the hanged man. He eventually used the magic on himself and returned to when he was 28 years old.

He told Jay about the magic and how people dying for Jay was a gift. He even offered Jay and Vernon immortality.

Vernon wanted to take him up on his offer but Jay turned it down. Sam and Dean came in to stop him, but Charlie dealt with them quickly. He met his end when Jay slipped one of Charlie's own cards into Charlie's jacket and stabbed himself. He was shocked that Jay picked Sam and Dean over him.^[1]
